I have had a day.
So, harkening back to my last Blog Post. I’ve came up with a name for my first story pitch, I’m calling it The Stories We’ve Lost and it’s probably gonna have to take place in the future. I’ve also been toying around with the idea of making the female lead a lesbian, but that was more for my own amusement in my several ramblings to myself. I’ve also got two characters’ roles figured out (no names, a comment if you have any ideas would be appreciated), the female lead is the navigator and
25 stories. I can’t believe I’ve written 25 stories in (kinda) horse words. Some are unfinished, some are cancelled, and not all of them were made equal. I’ve had hits and misses, and I wanted to vaguely collect my thoughts into what I think would be a nice top 25 list.
Technically speaking, I’ve actually published 26 stories, I’ve just deleted my first one because a rewrite of it is present on my profile anyhow.
I joined this site almost three years ago. I joined with one express purpose: I wanted to write.
I didn’t just want to write, I wanted to write. I wanted to write a story that everybody would read, to have someone look at a story written by Dashie04 and say, “She was a good writer.” I wanted to write stories that people would cite as primary influences in the way that someone would cite FO:E or Rainbow Factory as influences to their adventure or grimdark stories respectively.
Words cannot describe how exhausted I am. This has easily been the most brutal NaNoWriMo I’ve ever done. Ironically, it hasn’t been because of my word count goals.
It’s been everything else.
But, it is the end of National Novel Writing Month, right? So we should probably talk word counts.
As of today, I'm twenty-six years old, but this isn't a blog about that. That'd be boring.
So here's a free comic about Trixie, and Starlight Glimmer. Mostly Trixie. Happy birthday to me.
