So I've been hearing a lot about this NaNoWiMo thing and I find myself tempted by it.

As I was discussing with arabe1la yesterday, my problem has always been discipline when it comes to writing (and life, frankly). 99% of the time the ideas are there, I am just not regimented enough to sit down and do it. Too much of the time I depend on those rare bursts of inspiration to carry me through; which is fine for casual writers, but if I ever want to be serious about and taken seriously for my writing I really need to buckle down. So, this might be good for me. It would cut down on the amounts of craptastic slash I read, that's for sure.

I wonder what I'd write though…Maybe a test story in the universe I'm creating for my fantasy novel series. The universe isn't completely created yet, but I know enough for a novella, I think. And I know that not all of the stories I want to tell are going to be long enough for their own novel… Hmmm…

Of course, I'd have to finish that damn O/P carnival piece first. Why do you treat me so poorly, Percy and Oliver? Don't I love you? Haven't I guarded your love from those who would throw either or both of you to Marcus Flint? Or Lucius Malfoy? Haven't I dredged the depths of The Site I Shall Not Name, as well as ff-effing-n for stories?

Yes, I have.

So why do you abandon me in my hour of need?
