Moth, thanks for the recomendations! . Although the main chatacter and the vampire already are the main focuses for the entire novel. My NaNoWriMo was just your typical modern day romance with a mute girl, a boy who doesn't want to make freinds, and a bit of magic. (See? Totally normal) Not to mention a boarding school up in the mountains. The rough plot is that the main character (the boy) is transfered to the boarding school. It is mentioned that there was some sort of incident in his past, but said incident is not recalled in detail until later in the book. As he settles into his life at the school, he makes a point of trying not to socialize with people. His plans get thrown out the window (or rather fall down the stairs) when he encountered a girl who accidentally knocks him out. Shortly after he wakes up, he learns that the girl is mute. After this point in the book, it mostly focuses on their relationship, and then magic! (Oh my gosh, this was worse than the last explanation xD) WhispersintheMist I would highly recommend NaNoWriMo personally. If it hadn't been for that I would never have finished my first novel.

WhispersintheMist I would also recommend it on the grounds of the same. I finished my first novel because of it and since first joining I have finished four in total and as of this Camp NaNo have almost finished a fifth. It's really great to give you that motivation push and about an hour hardcore writing a day has me ahead of my word goal of 25k for Camp. Plus, a lot of people are into it, so you get moral boosts from your peers. 𝓓𝓪𝓻𝓽𝓱 𝓑𝓻𝓪𝓶𝓫𝓵𝓮 mothsnapI have this tendency to go all out fantasy. I've been told before that I go for over-done/classic plots but that I always seem to put a twist on them. I'm just hoping that each time I do that the twist will make that classic style plot shine just a little bit better. In the past I've also eyed Sci-Fi and WW2 Historical fiction (fantasy twist on the last one) and have a few plots for those, but recently I've regained motivation for a story I've sorta been calling Gold Eye. For Camp NaNo I've just been working on this. Probably not the most interesting thing out there, but it was more of my attempt to give an RP character the background he deserves: wcrpforums.com/thread/53177/immortal-rules-writings-random-edited

They're not bad. If you could connect them a little more, that would be better, but the writing style is pretty dang good.

Why thank you. I'm glad I hit my goal of a good writing style. ^^ Well, they aren't really supposed to be connected like 1 goes into 2 and so forth. It's more like 1 goes into 7 and 7 goes into 3 and 3 goes into 12. They're written completely randomly and I'm almost done filling in all the blanks. Once that happens the random order starts to make a bit more sense, because the information in in the correct order but the stories are not. So yup, I'm still working on that end. I could also post a chronological reading order later, for those who are interested.

Nah, it's fine the way it is . If you wrote it that way with a good reason (which you just told me about) then I see no reason to change it.

So, what have you been up to? See any good movies or read any good books?
