I am incurably, incredibly lazy.
I'm not sure weather or not I'm still doing JulNoWriMo or whether I should just pull out seeing as I have a total of 1300 words for the last 15 days, or whether I should just try my hardest to make up the 20-something thousand words I'm behind by.
I decided to go with a completely different story idea anyway.
Also, I need to make more videos on my YouTube channel. And more interesting ones on my collaboration channel because currently they are at level FAIL, although its not entirely my fault. Our channel appears to be falling apart.*le sigh*
And now I don't know how to finish this.
BYYYYEEEEEEEEE

Day Three....bleh
Today just needs to be over. I've changed my mind about this story so many times today its not funny. At one point I had started over with a new story and characters and was just going to wing it for the rest of the month. But a few hours later I remembered how stupid that was when I had a perfectly good plot all worked out and waiting. And of course, I remembered how good it was.
My plans to start WriDay at 4pm did not go to plan. So I will be starting at midnight - which is in 20 minutes. Okay, I will be starting after getting some sleep because my brain hurts and my emotions are all over the place. And so is this post. Why do I have a policy of not editing my posts before I upload them? Oh right, because I wanted to be able to go back and relive the emotions I was feeling at the time or some shit like that.
Nothing like running into The Ex(in my case, very literally) to screw with your mind and ruin your day, amirite?
BLEH.

Day Two: Progress! (Sort of)
Now, Sarah. After our last chat, how many words did you go away and write?
.
.
.
.
None. That's how many words I wrote. Which bring me to a total of ZERO/FIFTY-THOUSAND.
In my defense, I have spent the last 12 hours planning.
Number of Main Characters: Three
Number of Main Characters with names: Three!
Plot: Basically there.
World Building: advancing fast.
After a short shift at work tomorrow, I will come home and be ready to attempt my first ever word sprints! As I am taking part in WriDay (checkout the WriYe forums), I will be attempting to write ten thousand words in twenty-four hours. I say attempting because I honestly have no idea how many I can mentally manage, having never done anything like it before. I am changing the rules for WriDay for myself slightly though. My twenty-four hours starts at 4pm Saturday and goes until 4pm Sunday because I need a few hours for my mind to recover before I can sleep otherwise my dreams become terrifyingly complicated and just plain trippy.
Writing starts in T-minus 18 hours!

Day One....about that....
I'm planning on starting, really I am.
Seriously.
I have felt like crap for the last 24 hours and was unable to start at midnight like I planned on doing. I was out with friends on 29th and only got 3 hours sleep (probably why I felt like crap all day) and my planning fell a little behind. I have a basic plot and two characters (only one has a name at the moment - I've been on name sites for hours trying to find one that works for my female character) but I feel like I need third character to really make it work. Or not work but.....I don't know what word I'm looking for there, but hopefully you get my meaning? I want a third character. So I'm still working him out. And then of course he needs a name. See, July 1st and already I'm becoming an inarticulate bumble.
Basically, I'm behind a day because I'm still planning.
FAIL.
P.S Writing this post on my three day old Macbook Pro! I love having my own computer and not having to share the desktop anymore!
