8 Cups of Tea Later...

And I finally found it in me to make a start on my first draft.

It does have a name - currently, my haha, 'current' writing project is named "Goodnight, Bittersweet". Usually I can find a way to think of a title, any unrelated title, stick it onto an idea, and make it work with a theme in the book :)

It's frustrating that I want to do this NOW - not that I don't have time during summer, but I really would like to get this all written while I have enthusiasm for it, rather than leaving it until I know I won't have the want to write it. I find that it takes a while to get into writing anything, even something as simple as a blog entry sometimes. I'm a lot better at it than I used to be though - blog entries are easy, however, because I can just spill my thoughts out onto the page while knowing that I don't have to edit them later. With roleplay posts too, I don't need to edit them. I can just paint my words into the text box and post it, and people can be happy with what I give them the first time round. After all, it's just a roleplay post. It's for fun, as novel writing should be too, but I find there's something a lot more serious about novel writing. I'm with my own characters, rather than playing someone else's through roleplaying (which by the way, probably sounds like some kind of dodgy sexual act, but it's really not. xD one day, I'll explain to all readers what it is ).

I still have major loads of Art and IT coursework to catch up on - and guess what.

Now I have a deadline.
