WriMo Day 2

Posting from your phone is not fun, but such is the way of a gal whose mom doesn't have wireless capability in her household. I'll make this brief: I didn't write today. But I don't have to start panicking yet... Do I? Should I cheat and make this a third person, or should I stick to my guns? Idk, Loves. Idk.



Love!
Deserae.

Prerna: I do have someone who could help... But is it weird to admit that I'm kind of afraid to ask? Why do guys have to be such... guys?!
And Aria, thanks for reading and responding to my excerpt via email. Love ya much, Girly.

WriMo Day 1

So I did it! I started my WriMo today! But what I didn't do was get 1,000 words. Boo!

My day was fairly productive, though.

I moved out of the dorm and into my sister's place.
I packed up a small duffel and printed out my boarding pass.
I ate well. Really well.
And I took the best nap in the history of the world.

Not to mention I started looking up internships and got to email some very important people (gosh... I love email...). And I snuck some writing in! How cool is that?!

Loves, I've got a lot going on. And I'm not really good at this whole male POV thing. And I'm not feeling very confident about how this is going. So for today's yum-yum, I'm just going to let you see what I've got. Click the picture to get a better view and oh my gosh, guys--- if you hate it, tell me now. Although... there's not really much to go off of, so that's probably not fair of me to say. Can you tell I freak out easily? I'm an incurable freaker outer.

By the way! If you didn't get to read the fun facts about my other WIP, PW, please click here to do so, and be sure to check out the excerpt I posted here before I take it down late Sunday night! Love ya'll! Thanks for putting up with me.

My goal for today was: 1,000 words
The recommended NaNo count would be: 1,667
My actual word count: 403 words

Love!

Maya: I'll definitely tell Eva you wished her a happy birthday and thanks for your support! I know I say that all the time, but I really appreciate it. You're awesome. Beyond awesome. And yay! I'm glad you're inspired. Oh, I wish you luck on your writing, too. Keep us posted, okay?! You know I love talking about writing with my homies (aka you guys because you don't laugh when I say that. Teehee!). Ciao, Bella!

Every Good WIP Needs a Good Moniker

Every good WIP needs a good working title. And I have one! But the only people on the entire world who know it are me, Alex B., and my darling little sister.

I want to give it a good fake name, though. So far, I've just been using the first letters of every word to do the job (ex. Planet Weird= PW).

But Victoria Schwab has some pretty snazzy WIP names. VAGABOND PUPPIES is the fake name for her adult novel. ANGST KITTENS is the moniker of her Near Witch related project. So I want to give this project a random name. And that's why, from now on, whenever I refer to it, you'll hear me call it...

The Boy Book.

Yeah. I'm not very creative when I'm trying to be. When I'm not trying to be, I'm full of yummy names, ideas, and random details. I don't know what my brain wants from me.

In other news, I took my last final tonight. AND it was my friend Eva's birthday today so here's a happy birthday to her! And... oh! I'm going home tomorrow! Yay! Man. Good things are happening. Don't you love when that happens?

Wish me luck on my WriMo! It starts tomorrow!

Maya: You're very welcome, Love! I loved your responses. And, thank you. I've never really read too many pure romances but I love the idea of a real one for teens. A real story of falling in love and falling out of it... I am ready to get over my fears of realistic relationships. Buh-ring it awn! And haha! Thank you kindly. you know I can't give up on anything or anyone. I just can't. Defeat is SO not in my vocabulary. Well... it wasn't until now. Lol! Love ya, Chickadee. Thanks for your love and support!
