Hallo!
Yes, still plugging away at NaNo. It's...different. I find i'm a little dissapointed in all the forums and stuff - it's not nearly as interesting as i thought, and a lot of the questions are really *dumb*. Like 'help me name my character'. I mean - whaaa?
So really, LJ is much better at feedbacky, supporty kind of...stuff. BUT! It's still a big public commitment that i like to have hanging over my head *hee*, so...i'm glad i'm doing it.
I'm a little sad about my word count so far, but not much. I knew i'd have days i couldn't write as much as i'd like, or off days. So no big.
Progress Bar!!
My first *ever*. And i would *not* have this here except for the wonderful, smrt, and amazingly patient
reremouse who all but beat me over the head to get me to *get it*. Sheesh. Thank you, bay-bee! You roxor.
I'm going to start posting a new Spander story, probably tomorrow or the next day. The poll relates to that story.
[Poll #607654]
And last but not least - picspam! The first is this very cool 3-D puzzle that my mum and dad bought. They had about half done and had stalled out, so my sis and i sat down and finished it. It was neat! Never did one before. See the white ghost candle, and the little girl-witch and pumpkin-head guy candles? My mum bought those and a few more when i was like - not born. We've never burned them, but she puts them out *every year*. The big ghost? Cost .87 cents. Yeah.
Picture two is the Monstrous Bebe, holding two of the cupcakes she decorated. She and her two cousins each had eight to decorate. They had a *lot* of fun. That's my older brother in the background.
Biggish if you're on dial-up!
Halloween House.
Halloween Cupcakes.
Gah. I had fic to pimp but now can't find my links. I'll do it next time. *hugs*

I've seen those 3D puzzles before, they look like a lot of fun.
Hey, are we going to get a chance to continue reading your Nano novel? Sometime in the future, when you're ready? Of course I'm excited about the new Spander story too, but you did let us read the first bit of the Nano story so... I'm invested in it.
no subject
The puzzle was *hard*, but very cool. We really had fun with it.
Ah. I'm in a quandry about the NaNo thing. On the one hand, yes of course i want fb...
On the other, i want to *publish* and i'm not sure about having it all up for public perusal if i'm gonna do that. So i need to think about it. Maybe ask someone online i know who's published what the best course of action is.
I'm glad you're interested, though! Thanks!

Beautiful house, more beautiful Monstrous and purty cupcakes. I love that huge ghostie candle, it looks like Munch's Scream. :O

Backstory *roxors*
And thank you thank you!
Monstrous is so very adorable it's skeery!
*heee!*
There's a slightly smaller, orange candle that's similar but not as cool. Heh.

Cute cupcakes. They look yummy. Had to do a double take at the haunted house. Didn't even realize at first it was a puzzle. Very neat.
no subject
I know! The house was very cool. It's made of some sort of foam with paper over it and would have been a little easier to do if it had been just a little bit stiffer, but it was cool and very clever.
