I should be doing homework.

I just signed up to take part in National Novel Writing Month. Basically you have 30 days to write a 50,000 word novel. Nobody has to see it, nobody has to read it, you just have to write it!

I remember hearing about this in highschool, and now I’m finally going to do it. Now I just have to figure out how to schedule in an extra 1,500+ words everyday for the next month, on top of school stuff and real life.

Update 12/19/09:
What a failure. I wrote 1,228 words. And they were not very good words at that. Between my feature articles and essays due in November, this project was doomed from the start. Poor thing. Not a problem though. There is always next year. There is always any time of the day for writing, now that I think about it. I’m not confined to an online competition. Here’s to another 1,228+ words.
