I hear the stars singing

Glorious song from of old.

I behold the moon giving light

To all the children of the night

They who can never stop listening.

The wind comes to me

Faintly, as I lie in the grass

Of the silent mountain clearing, faintly;

A taste of a sweetness beyond.

I listen to silence and hear more;

A whisper, a rumor

A shadow and reflection

Of the beautiful country.

Well, I wonder...

Voiced in Writing
Normally, I come to write a post with some idea of what I'm going to write the post on.  But as of right now, I have no idea.  So maybe I'll just ramble about.... well, writing, and then maybe some about life too. 

Thank y'all so much for your condolences about Joy.  It really helped to comfort me.  You are all so sweet.  *hugs*

I spent all day yesterday scrubbing a chinchilla cage from top to bottom, sitting out in the grass with the hot sun beating down on my head with no relief.  I now have a horrible sun burn on the back of my neck.  Fortunately I don't have it anywhere else, because I remembered to put sun block in those places.  ;)  Yes, it really was all day, from 11:45 a.m. (when I was finally mostly awake), to 3:45 p.m., when we had to get ready to go to a potluck.  Blegh. 

Anyways, as far as writing goes, I'm doing pretty good.  I'm getting back in the writing zone, working my average word count up to 2k per day and beyond.  Enchantress is 73,000 words at the moment, so only 2,000 words away from being an official novel!  I'm excited.  I'm also worried, too, because part of me has no idea what I'm going to do with this novel.  There's so much about it that needs fixing in order to make it Christian, I'm not even sure if I should finish it.  But then, how could I not?  And should I try to have it published?  Or is it just so weird that it should go in a drawer and never be seen again?  It's hard to tell.  

I have two questions for any writer who reads this blog, and you must answer them in your comment:

1.  Are you doing NaNoWriMo 2009?  And if so, do you know what plot you're doing yet, and what is it? 

2.  What is your average word count per day? 

My answers to these questions:

1. Yes, I'm doing NaNoWriMo 2009.  No, I don't really know what plot I'm doing.  I have a plot that's been swirling around in my head since February, but I don't know if it would work considering the nature of NaNoWriMo.  I've got so much of it figured out in my head that I wouldn't really have the freedom to go off on a creative whim.... but then, I didn't have much room with Tears, and it still worked out.  I will have to think about it.

2. At this point, my average is 2k. 

And I think I feel like ending the post now.  I have to go get ready for church.

No I'm not doing NaNoWriMo 2009 and my usual word count when I sit down to write (anywhere from everyday to once a week or less) is usually 2 thousand words. :) Usually. Sometimes more, sometimes less.

I'm so glad that you're feeling better about Joy! As to your questions,

1. No, I am not doing NaNoWriMo '09. Last year was just too much, especially with so many holidays packed together. And i prefer to take my sweet old time thinking out my books rather than gushing out whatever i feel like writing.

2. Wordcount.... hmmm, that usually depends on my mood. sometimes i don't stop and other times i sit there staring at the computer screen.

Anyway, happy writing!!

Caio,

Hey, Cherise!

YES!!! how could I NOT do nanowrimo 2009? I wish November were already here!!!!! I can't stand WAITING for it to come!!! As for my plot...well, I keep going back and forth. Firstly I have this really cool plot I have wanted to write since like February or beyond. It is one about an arranged marriage. And there is another one that I wanted to do since last year, the one about fairies. Or there is one I still rather like - the one I was also thinking of doing next year. An historical fiction that takes place during the mid early to mid 1800's where the family goes out west. I am also thinking of completely re-doing my RH story and just writing that for November...but I don't think I will. I want to write something completely new. So we'll see how it goes...btw, which story idea do you think sounds the most interesting?

And my average word count is like 1200 words. Some days more, some days only 500. It just depends...

I fare ye well!

Me, not do NaNoWriMo this year??? O.o
NO WAY! I can't wait to do it! *screams*

As for my plot I have.... no idea. I was thinking maybe my gypsy story, but I think I'm going to write that now, so I don't know. I'll probably come up with something on Halloween or something... :D

And I would be interested to see what you write if you just went off on a limb and had no planning. I found that it's much easier for me to write exactly what I want to write (even if I don't know what that is) when I don't think - I just write. But that's just me. ;)

To answer your questions on this entry; Yes, I am doing NaNoWriMo this year. I know my basic plot, it is historical fiction (post Civil War, I think) about two brothers who are living somewhere in the south(not sure about that yet) who get themselves into ALOT of mischeif(sp?). It really is going to have a Tom Sawyer feel about it, and it is based off of a game my sisters and I play.
My word count per day? Well, I'm not being very active in my writing lately, I have an other story going on, and it is moving very slowly, so my word count really ranges per day, or, per time I write.
Blessings,
Taylor

Hallo, me dahling, here I am. You're the only one who hasn't deserte my blog completely. And believe it or not, I'm about to go post! Hurrah!

As to the two questions...

1. You already know my answer to that one...

2. So far, my average word count is 0. Big whoopee.
Wow. Woohoo. Outstanding.

Anywho...tell Riley to post, and slap him upside the head for me...if he isn't hibernating, which Danny is...

And I shall leave thee be! So fun to see you yesterday!

No, darling, that was not a practical joke. I accidentally hit the 'enter' key before I was even done typing the title!

You henceforth have reason to be proud of me: Yesterday I sat down and typed 1,012 words straight! *starts to get cocky, then slaps and thus humbles herself* Well, that is quite a low figure, but amazingly high for me...*giggles*

And what was I so busy typing on, you ask? Sentrin and his glorious story! He has just gone through a star forming in the nebula to the other world. *stops and contemplates* However, he still needs to arrive in the other world. I was at a good break-point and needed to stop, what with Daddy home and all.

It was so fun getting to see you again the other day! That song by Ed-Alleyne Johnson is next on my 'get' list...heehee! It's so beautiful.

Well, I need to go and socialize with others and post again! Love you bunches [of flowers]!
