JulMo (for Sherry) - Day 4

  • Jul. 4th, 2009 at 4:06 PM

LOL - JulMo - sounds like something Curly would say. "JulMo, look at the JulMo; nyah, nyah, nyah!"

Wow; it's only day 4 and I'm weirding out already.

Quick stat update:

Total WriMo words written: 6,938
WriMo target for day 4: 6,452
Words over target: 486
Total words written for Night's Edge: 15,206 (This includes the words done pre-JulNoWriMo)

Okay. I feel a little better. Do you have any idea how hard it is to write interesting stuff about a character walking through a cave in a big mountain. Notwithstanding the link that Sherry sent that suggests I should have written something like:

a) Raven levitated and flew through the cave, dodging pigmy rattlers and killer gnomes
b) Raven ninja-chopped her way through a slew of blind cave zombies while searching for the shape-shifting wizard that holds the key to her quest (wait a minute, I kind of like that one)
c) Raven has to use her bare forearms to lift a nearly molten-hot iron pot that release a hidden latch, opening the secret door to the wizard's lair, allowing her to escape a slavering herd of giant cave rats. (If the iron pot leaves dragon and tiger tattoos on Raven's arms, that would be copying.)
d) all of the above

If all I wanted was to make money selling bad literature to 14 year-old boys, I could....

Wait a minute, let me go back and rewrite some of that last scene...he he he he he he...I've got an idea....

X

p.s. Happy 4th of July, everyone.

Why not make money by selling good lit to bad 14 year olds? That was kind of my aim, you know.

JulNo, not JulMo -- like NaNo

I'd be happy just getting these puppies published at all! And if bad 14 year olds want to buy copies, I'll let them!

Sorry about the 'Mo' thing; I messed up on Curly too; his signature expression was 'nyuk, nyuk, nyuk' not 'nyah, nyah, nyah'

Maybe you could write me into 'Da Loser'?

Only if you are:

afraid to go to college

willing to lie to get out of your humdrum job

not willing to take responsibility for being a thief

Re: write me into 'Da Loser'?
Ummm, no, no, and no (although I did try to deny taking that candy from the shop when I was in 7th grade). Oh, and before that, me and another kid switched price tags on two footballs in a store so we could get the nicer one for the money we had.

Of course, in the scheme of things, that's not as bad as the price fixing the oil companies are guilty of!

Still, sin is sin is sin.
