Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sweet, I'm not the only one of us doing NaNo this year.

I was geeky enough to go to a NaNoWriMo kickoff party for my region, and at midnight we started writing our novels. Most of us actually only got about two hundred words done by 3am (except one chick who got 5K done) but everyone there was so awsum that it was worth condemning ourselves to catch up to our daily goal at a more appropriate time.

My novel's about a bunch of (post)modern magicians, whom my protagonist meets and attempts to get help from in order to learn how to kick the a** of some electromagnetic entity (maybe. Haven't decided.) It'll be mostly set in my own city, and each chapter will more or less be devoted to a new character. Each of the characters are, in some way, reflections of me, or bits of my personality, and the protagonist is, for all intents and purposes, my HGA/True Will/Augoeides trying to form a coherent whole from these constituent parts, in a way.

My author page is here. Post up yours if yew got one, Josh, as well as anyone else who happens to be doing NaNo. Best of luck to yew.

I had started a similar personal challenge for myself, in lieu of NaNo, but that's fallen into stasis at the moment. Apparently it takes about 21 days of repeated practice of something to form it into a new habit, so maybe if I can achieve that it'll actually get finished.
