NaNoWriYe Day 90

Wow, three months! And I've got slightly more than 66K written, which means I'm an entire month ahead. This is good. I'm going to need it -- April is looking to be a very bad month for the creative juices.

I've started writing The Seventh Druid again. I can't remember most of my notes, which means I'm going to need to start writing them down. I can't remember any of the history or the plot I had figured out; I can't even remember what my characters look like! O_O

For that reason, I am going to post some character profiles and/or info here later.

Later...

(from The Probert Encyclopedia)

Ovate
An ovate was a type of druid. His purpose was to observe and invent. His robe was green symbolizing budding life.

Bard
A bard was an order of druid. The bard's office was to supervise, regulate and to lead. His robe was sky blue, symbolizing justice and truth.

Primitive druid
The primitive druid was an order of druid involved with teaching science and religion. His robe was white symbolizing light, purity and knowledge.




Doesn't really do much for me. :/ I'll use them as references, but I have warrior druids and messenger druids and -- well, I guess I took Irish/Celtic mythology and warped it until it's barely noticeable. Oops?

Even later...

NaNoWriYe Day 89

Long time no blog! School chewed me up, vomited me, and ate me up again. (Ew.)

Circle of Nimue is *still* deader than dead. I can't think of anything to write. WOE. WOE I say. For King and Phoenix is slightly better off, but mostly, my writing is...

Dead.

Defunct.

Stale.

Untouched.

Ugh. See if I can bang out some words somewhere, yes? As of yesterday, approx. 66K written out of 200K.

NaNoWriYe Day 62

February was NOT one of my best months. Hopefully March will shape up to be better. The Seventh Druid is STILL stuck in a corner, which is really annoying since I can't seem to find the reverse key. Honestly.

However, I have hit 51K, which means about 26% of my 200K word count goal is finished. This is good.
