Hey, guys, funny story.
I forgot I had a blog.
Oops!
But it's not as bad as it seems.
Okay, it kinda is. But let me explain! It's like this.... In November, I was participating in NaNoWriMo (Ever heard of it? It's awesome!) Here's how NaNoWriMo works:
Na No Wri Mo stands for National Novel Writing Month, and it's where you write a novel......
.....wait for it......
.....in a MONTH.
It's crazy, and so me and my bud shut down or blogs for the month of November and we got writing. I wrote a grippingly wordy story (because it had to be 50,000 words to "win" the satisfaction of writing a novel in a month) about a certain Christian I-Forget-Last-Name who goes to a facility for troubled teens. While he's there, his best friend Tony is awaiting a trial for killing a man in self-defense. Christian and his sister Drew were the only wittnesses to what happened, but just before the trial, Christian's sister suddenly dissapears, leaving Tony without a reliable, stable witness to testify on his behalf. Throw in some more drama with the other characters at the facility Christian is at and then BAM one NaNoWriMo story. And the best part is: nobody died!
(It's a joke to NaNoWriMo novelists that when a certain writer hits some serious writer's block, they kill off a character. It happens a lot, apparently. I wouldn't know. Didn't happen to me.)
So, this blog goes out to all the characters that died in the making of NaNoWriMo novels. Your sacrifice was very appreciated. May your memory live on in the lives of the surving NaNo characters.
We were honored to write with you (or, of you, if you want to be literal about it).
Hopefully next time I won't forget I have blog. Until then, keep breathing!
