Day 27, copy/pasta on this scale is almost painful D:

Didn’t write a single word today so I’m not going to bother with the stats, but I did set up a new wordpress installation on my site for the novel so people could read it online more easily than the pdf. you can check it out here, but it’s more or less the same as the last pdf.

however, I didn’t realise just how much goes on in my story until today, it hit me twice, once when I thought ‘oh I’ll list all the illustrations I want done’, and that turned out to be 100+ and it hit me the second time when I made the chapter list.

now I know a fair few of my chapters are deliberately short for example:

Chapter 91: Some time passes.

Uneventfully.

however even still, alot more happens in this book than I was expecting, there are alot more battles, relationships and backstory things than I ever expected there would be. I guess writing is as suprising for the author as for the reader.

anyhoo, that’s me done for today, I recenlty had an an injection that screws with my hormones and makes me tired so I’m off to bed.

oh, btw if anyone knows any fansubbing group that releases kampfer the day after it airs I’d be very much in your debt ^_^

Day 26, I win at NaNoWriMo :D

yep, I hit the 50k mark today, the story is ‘whole’ it just lacks polish.

• Total Words: 50,771
• Today’s words: 4,494

looks like today was the biggest word count jump since the first day, awesome 😀

bit trickier to say ‘new chapters start at X’ today since I wrote the end yesterday, so heres whats new:

Added chapters 5-B, 17-B, 95-B, 119-B and added extra stuff to the end of chapters 10 and 15, as well as I got started on the ‘authors notes’ section where I explain plenty of stuff I find interesting 🙂

heres the latest version: Fair_Day26

the story additions were mostly stuff that needed fixing up (such as taking the time to establish Doll and the samurai’s relationship, and Mrs Irfan’s departure before Claire set off himself) but I also added stuff that wasn’t even hinted at before such as depicting Cadence’s fight where she get’s her third glow, and also our Trio of hero’s being ambushed on their way to Koob and one of our antagonists arranging it.

oh, also today I went through the whole thing and corrected the spelling, it really wasn’t as bad as I thought. 🙂

suffice to say, I’m very pleased with myself for getting this far perhaps too pleased but I don’t care) but I’m not done yet, theres a few things I want to tidy up still before I call it ‘november complete’ and I want to make a fresh cover and a crapload of illustrations too.

anyhoo, heres some stuff and my certificate:

This shows a counter and my progress for the month 🙂

My certificate, its definately lame, but I earnt it so I don't care 🙂

anyhoo, I’m going to turn on the beatles, and head off to bed. (yep, early bedtime is the best reward I can give myself, screw chocolate! ^_^)
