NaNo's going well, if a mite slower than usual. My word count, I mean - it could use some improvement, but I'm feeling pretty blah about it at the moment.
I've also taken to writing down whatever pops into my head about my stories, characters, etc. I started that in '06, with Shadows and Moss, though until now, I hadn't done it since. The irony of having only done this one thing for two stories that are both set in the same timeframe and with the same very, very basic plot (search for cure to save the Cyzargavrie) hasn't escaped me. Oddly, I tend to be humourous when I write these things. Shadows and Moss entries were very lively - more so than the current.
So because I'm bored and have nothing better to post, here's Monday's:

3:33am: Ah-ha! The sausages strike again!
Poor Baela’s confused. Why am I noticing a pattern here? In Shadows and Moss, Adan takes Nadya to one side and speaks to her about the conspiracy. In Nightmares and Cross, Adyal takes Baela to one side and speaks to her about… well, I don’t know do I? I haven’t finished writing it!
Oh, and in other news, Baela is psychic.
.
5:39pm: Mother of god, can’t I write anything without going creepy?
Oh, and I’ve put the ‘nightmares’ in Nightmares and Cross.
.
6:59pm: I seem to have intimacy issues. Every time two of my characters are left alone, something’s up. Conspiracies, getting information for unheard plots, outright creepiness and scares… geez, have these people ever heard of a *normal* conversation?
