New Blog for Personal Whatnots (Follow me through NaNo 2009!)

Wow, I can't believe it's almost been a year since I last updated Becoming. I'm sure you're all pretty mad at me.

I feel like Becoming kind of changed from when I started it to when I stopped writing. When I started writing it, it was just a shoddy rewrite of the junk I had before. However, when I got into the second and third books and started playing around with points of view and different plot elements, I felt like the story had grown and the first book just didn't cut it anymore. I tried my hardest to push myself to at least finish Becoming but I just didn't have the heart to do so anymore.

When I quit writing Becoming, it was at a total of over 90,000 words. That's a lot of work, and I'm not going to just throw that away. This November, I will be participating in NaNoWriMo 2009. It will be my first year participating and I need all the support I can get. I am out of school and out of excuses. I started a new blog about my writing to replace the old Insight into my Life blog.

I still haven't exactly decided what I am going to write for NaNo, but I have been tossing around ideas for a complete and total Becoming rewrite. If I do that, rest assured that I WILL finish it this time.

Check out my new blog here and please show your support.

Thank you

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi readers, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, if you celebrate the holiday.

I wish I could present to you on this day the gift of my writing, but I cannot give that. This time is incredibly busy, and I am terribly behind on Becoming. Part of it is due to my studies, part is due to my laziness, and part is due to a slight bit of writer's block. Of course, I know where the story is going, but I'm a little stumped on the moving action.

As I don't want to force myself to write because then I won't be happy with it, I am going to be bringing the chapters late.

I hope to have two to three chapters posted within the next two weeks, but we'll see how that goes. I hope to get some alone time with my computer over the next few weeks. I ask all of you to stay with me, please don't give up on Becoming. Support my story and I will continue to work on it.

Thank you and happy holidays.
