Writing: Nanowrimo Update.... Nanowrimo is a lot harder this year than years past. It's day 8 now and I've gotten very discouraged. The first two days were fine and I felt really excited to be writing but then it hit. This sudden slump. On day three I went out and instead of writing I went shopping (Which I'm really, REALLY happy with my purchase ) but I didn't write all day. I barely made a dent in my daily word count that day. Ever since then it's like I hit a wall. I don't know what to write. I've tried shipping around to write other scenes I know but that's only gone so far. After I write those scenes I'm stuck again.

Not only for my writing (which I will get to that in a minute) but also my art. The album is Atlas: Year One by Sleeping At Last. The album is just amazing to me. It's made up of six EPs. But the one thing that I find really unique is that they have themes. But the one things that I find really unique is that they have themes: Darkness (1), Light (2), Space I (3), Space II (4), Land (5), Ocean (6).    There are about thirty songs and they are oh so beautiful. I have my favorites (mainly the space ones, the planets). I made some art stuff too.   This album has really pushed me to write my story. I had an epiphany one night while I was listening to the album and it made me so excited for my story. I wish I had more time to write bu...
