Merry Christmas from NaNoWriMo Nightmare!

Here's my obligatory Christmas post, but there will be no updates for this weekend. You've all earned it for putting up with me.

Anyway, the next post will be on New Years Eve, so watch for it!

Blog Updates #1

Last night, I made a update to this blog by posting a list of the stories that I wrote for NaNoWriMo on the page "Stories for NaNoWriMo." So far, I have written 8 stories for the annual writing competition. But will I get around to actually finishing these stories?

Hopefully by the next decade; I've wasted enough time with everything else, so why should I waste more time?

NaNoWriMo Updates #2

Here's what I've done yesterday:

I've made some changes to the following story:
  • Life, Sin, & Blood: I did some minor editing (mainly taking out words that are clogging up the story), but I have some more editing to do. That'll be for tomorrow.
That's all for now, but I will have more updates soon.

NaNoWriMo Updates #1

Here's what I've done yesterday:

On the popular writing website Wattpad, I made significant changes to the following stories:
  • And You Thought Your Family was Weird: replaced what was written with a new prologue. Chapter 1 will be coming soon.
  • Confessions of a Fanfiction Writer: replaced what was written with a new prologue. Chapter 1 is coming soon.
So, that's a start, but I know I can do better. I'll be back tomorrow with more updates.

What is this blog used for?

Here's my answer: this blog is for updates on any story that I've written for NaNoWriMo. That's all. No other story will be discussed, just the stories for NaNoWriMo.

So, there you have it.

The stories I wrote are as follows:
  • 2008: Notorious: The Ballad of Candy Cane Brenner
  • 2009: Cosplay (The Novel)
  • 2010: How Harry Potter Ruined My Town
  • 2011: Life, Sin, & Blood
  • 2012: Magical Compositions
  • 2013: Janette Lennox
  • 2014: Confessions of a FanFiction Writer
  • 2015: And You Thought Your Family was Weird
Now you know.

Later, I'll tell you about how the rewrites for those stories are progressing.

Why Did I Choose the Title "NaNoWriMo Nightmare"?

I chose this blog title because most people I know would consider NaNoWriMo to be a nightmare. I say I will take the challenge and tackle this nightmare, whether the elements want me to or not.

Now you know.

I'll be posting updates to my stories as I rewrite them, so stay tuned!

I Have Returned!!!

Several years after I quit using Blogger, I decided to come back.

Before we begin, I would like to tell you that I have a history of using Blogger, as I used blogger for most of my Blogging activities until 2012, when I quit using Blogger and began using WordPress.

This time I'm using Blogger to track down how much progress I've made with the stories that I wrote for NaNoWriMo. I began using NaNoWriMo in 2008 and now this is my seventh year writing. Even though I managed to win, I never seem to be able to complete my story.

This year, however, I'm going to change that.

I'm going to be using this blog to talk about the stories I wrote for NaNoWriMo, why I never finished those stories, and what I'm going to do to make sure that those stories are finished and published in a timely fashion. So, you will see a lot of me around.

Now you know.
