Write On

I'm gonna do Nanowrimo.. Yes, that's right.

I tried this once several years ago and I never finished. The story did end up becoming the fill-length movie script I currently am working on. I have some small things in mind for my novel. It will definitely involve a character I have used before and it has a superhero type them to it.


I don't know how blatantly that theme is going to play out but the main character will have supernatural powers and I plan on making him become a accidental hero; maybe an anti-hero. I've posted a short piece featuring this character on my blog before. It's the post entitled Battle Recouped. I will probably modify that piece to be the beginning of the novel. The character is based off of a superhero me and my brother made up when we were like 12 or 13. His powers are a bit complicated to explain and I don't know how we came up with such a complex sort of idea for a superhero. Anyway, I'm excited about writing it out.

I genuinely have been thinking about randomness to blog about all day today and yesterday and I really can't come up with much right now. I do think I've decided to use my Poem Post Friday's for excerpts from my Nanowrimo writings. My username on Nanowrimo.org is BooderMcDoo if anyone wants to add me on there. Ok, I'll check you guys later.

Every Thought

First things first--Monday updates are now moving to Tuesdays. And also my dad pointed out that I was turning the bike pedal the wrong way on my bike (refer to post "Monday on Wednesday").


Moving on.


2 of my 3 teams lost this weekend while the one that won this week had lost the two weeks prior. It's not so bad cause all is not lost for any of the teams. They all still have hope of having great success for the rest of the season.

Work: meh.
School: meh.
Relationship: perfect.


Jessica and I are moving in together on November 18th. We are staying at my apartment complex but upgrading to a two bedroom apartment. I am excited about this, very excited. We are gonna have some fun combining our stuff, though. I expect and have also been told that many of my things are not acceptable for our home.. I agree but I am stubborn sometimes. It's not a big deal to me, really. Things are things and they don't regulate my life. But Jessica is a wonderful homemaker and she wants our place to be beautiful, welcoming, and hospitable.


Other things that I am dwelling on include my script, zombies (duh), and my acting role. It turns out the guy that is the creative mind behind the show I have been cast in has been on a vacation and up until now I have had no contact with him about the show. He has come back and I feel things will start soon.


With my script, I have come in contact with a guy who is going to help me hash some things out with it. Develop the characters better, push the plot along more, and just give some outside perspective for me. I really can't wait to hear what he says about it and what ideas he comes up with.


Zombies. This has several different splintering sources. The second season of The Walking Dead has starting being one. But I don't have cable so I have to wait until it comes out on DVD.. At least that's what I want to do because I like to watch them all at once. I have also gotten into reading World War Z more and am getting excited about the movie coming out in 2012. Then there's Halloween. With Halloween approaching there has been a general forte in the ghouls and zombie department so it's not wonder that zombies are on my mind.

I know these are all small blurbs but it's what's on my mind now. I will knock on your thoughts later good friends!
