So good that I stopped writing my novel for a minute and pulled out (randomly) the third book and started reading it. I totally remembered why I loved him so much. <br /><br />I don't know if I ever completely finished the series. I know what happens, but I don't think my nine year old head completely got it. Maybe that will be my December goal.<br /><br />Also, I am determined to hit 50,000 by tonight, even though yesterday morning I was only at 40,000. :DErinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618803352835134884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127677169344207651.post-20969030454719071242010-11-28T12:59:08.598-05:002010-11-28T12:59:08.598-05:00Congratulations on finishing Nano!

"Besid...A cute woman in that pic. Who is she?<br /><br />"Besides, there are already plenty of novels. There is no need for a new one."<br /><br />Yes, that's true. That's why my ambition is to write one, and exactly one, novel before I die. And since I'm not in a hurry (I hope), I just keep on rewriting and modifying stuff all the time, in addition to adding new chapters. I won't recommend anyone to read my novel when it's finished (you should rather read Dostoyevsky or Jean Genet), but it's a hell of a lot of fun to write it >:)<br /><br /><a href="http://cold-as-heaven.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"> Cold As Heaven </a>CA Heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07558100567878233142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127677169344207651.post-91700810565281153782010-11-28T11:30:32.136-05:002010-11-28T11:30:32.136-05:00Amazing advice from Lemony!
