First I have to prepare some things for work, but then I aim at two to threethousand words today. Day is still young :)

Okay, so I took advantage of the NaNo trial and downloaded Scrivener. I'm spending time that I could use for writing by doing what's commonly called "worldbuilding", and by me called "having fun being God".

Ah, playing god. The best advantage to creating your own world. Would the plot be derailed by telephones? Your world now has no telephones! Do you like dragons? Your world now has dragons! It's super easy!

it looks quite interesting though these little helpers always succeed in confusing me. For instance at university we were introduced to "citavi". The time I needed getting how it works I was done with the original citing. But as my plot is anything but complex (it jumps back and forth in time but I don't have to invent it really, it just happens), I will stick to just writing. Soo, I've nearly caught up on Nimphy, yay! But I want to reach 11500 at minimum. So onward!

Aww, and I was glad I had overcome you.

Hey, anyone here up for a word sprint? Or any kind of write-in? Because I'm getting bored and writing in company is so much fun.

Why not? It's 6:06 in the morning, I'm a morning person, I need to stop thinking about music - even my story is beginning to turn into something about music, and I'm way behind on my word count. We just pick a time to stop and write as fast as we can, correct?

We also pick a time to start. How does :25 sound? My time right now, in this second it's :13 for me, but the computer's clock is off, so you may give the start signal.

And we have 15 minutes.

How would we do this? I'm not familiar with the regular write in. I saw, that they take place at youtube and as I don't have any google account of some sort I never joined one.

Am I late? I'm still writing my history lesson, so I'm good.
