What has NaNo done to me???

Certain figures this month aren't quite matching up... not as well as I would like them anyway.

Yup, I'm talking about NaNoWriMo.  It's hard work, but I've discovered a lot about my writing style, my characters, and, yes, even myself... although I'm not sure what I found out about myself... :P  Probably something.

I am SOOOOO excited for my NaNo sequel, because that means:  I GET TO WRITE MORE ABOUT MY CHARACTERS!!! WAHOOOO!!!

Lol, but it is fun, and as I introduced two new characters yesterday, I thought this is going to be so fun to write a series on.  Why?  You would be thinking the same thing if you ever met Wedgewink, the funniest Darduffle of them all.

You don't know what a Darduffle is?  Okay... let this explain.


With long, brown ears that flopped back, a hairless head, and long, knotted nose, Wedgewink presented a comical form just looking at one aspect.  He also had large, puffing-out brown eyes, that had strained, blue marks coming across them.
       His light brown skin was covered in, at one time, fine clothes, which Wedgewink had preferred to ruin by jumping in mud puddles with joy, and of course for that, he gained a shout or two, or three, or four, or five, or… well, you get the picture.  Wedgewink’s thin body was all the more small after his perfectly round head.  It narrowed down to the mere bones, and his knees always seemed to be bent, adding to his shortness of only four and a half feet.

So, have a image in your mind?  Or are you just thinking that I went crazy?  Probably the result of NaNo, after all, whoever heard of a Darduffle...?  Or, especially, a Darduffle named Wedgewink?  Believe it or not, those names I made up as I was writing them, along with another two character's names.  I seem to do that a lot... :P

TAG!

I am not sure what this tagging thing is, but I saw it on Ryebrynn's blog, and she 'tagged' everyone, so I did it.  Here 'tis.

Okay, next 11 things.

This is a list of 40 bad things that wouldn't have happened (or would have) if everyone in the world was exactly like me.

THE CONSEQUENCES OF EVERYONE BEING THE SAME AS ME.

1.  There would be no electronic devices.

2.  No video Games nor Movies.

3.  No cars, busses, trucks, or any other motorized vehicle.

4.  There would be no weapon other than Medieval technology... possibly not even that.

5.  No one would ever land on the moon.

6.  Neither Communism or Capitalism would exist, only dictatorships, monarchies, or anarchy.

7.  Mathematics would be a dreaded subject, if it was even comprehended.

8.  Everyone would be an author of at least several fantasy books.

9.  There would be to many fantasy books for man-kinds good.

10.  Only people with the right moods at certain times would like mystery fiction.

11.  Everyone likes history.

12.  No body likes horror novels.

13.  Paintings and other pictures would be of the poorest quality, though the people would like to draw.

14.  There would only be a 25% chance that humans would advance beyond Medieval or Dark Age technology.

15.  Cats would, most likely, be extinct.

16.  Everyone would dream of being a good artist.

17.  Everyone would think that their brothers (even though they are the same as him/her) were very odd.

18.  Only a certain measure of politics would surface in the busy, and befuddle minds of the nobles.

19.  Everyone would hate swimming pools or anything water related (i.e. showers).

20.  Hiawian Punch would never have been invented.

21.  Henry Ford would have spent his time dreaming up things he called a "Model T", not actually making it.

22.  Pink would be outlawed.

24.  Buildings would be sloppily constructed.

25.  The likelihood of bread being discovered by growing wheat and grinding it would be very, VERY, slim.

26.  Everyone would be saying "Politics equals, disguised lies."

27.  Leonardo DVinci would have finished most of what he started, unfortunately, that would only be a series of fantasy books.

28.  Kids as old as 12 would have an interest in politics.

29.  Kids 12 and older would be attempting to take over the world...

30.  Hand pumps would have never come into the mind of it creator.

31.  Everyone would hate Legos (though... I must say myself that that wouldn't be such a bad thing...)

32.  It would have taken a genius of his era to invent the bow and arrow.

33.  A genius 33 times that would be required to invent ballistas or catapults.

34.  If boats were built, no one would be able to comprehend how they floated, let alone sailed against the wind.

35.  Markus Perrson, the creator of Minecraft, would have written a fantasy book called, Minecraft, rather than making a video game.

36.  Everyone would eat butterbread for lunch, breakfast, and super.

37.  Macaroni and Cheese would be one of the top three favorite foods of every one, along with Pizza and Chicken Cordon Bleu.  (I don't see a consequence here though...)

38.  When someone said "genetically reverse engineered it" the other person would run away screaming.

39.  Everyone would be inventing a slew of new words weekly.

40.  The bill that says "The right to bear arms" would be abolished for its silly wording.

More to come probably, those are just the ones I thought up real quick.

NaNo Update:  15,832.  Finally the plot has been getting underway, still, the reason for the title is going to be far into the novel.  There is so much material that I don't think I'm going to put it in one book, I might have a sequel... trilogy, who knows, maybe even a cycle.  I have yet to decide the ending, there are two possible ways, yet I was thinking of having one be the end of the second book, so as to keep this novel shorter, for the first option would be slightly less long.

All other writings are on the postponed list, The Black Sorceress, The Spider King novel, The Sci-Fi novel I might write, two novels I have outlined, another I have started, and another two compilations of short stories.  Thus, what I mean, is that I will be posting a lot, but I am going to be VERY BUSY even after NaNo, because then I'll be drafting my NaNo novel, and starting some other writings.  So... yeah...

Also, I'm going to be doing a series of posts on Fantasy Map-Making and the like.

I know that someone was wondering why I did that a while ago... the answer... well... just because I'm crazy and random. :P :D

So, it's November 3rd and the first time I've posted.

Yeah... you can tell I'm excited.

I've got 5,511 words so far, I wanted to have more, since my word goal is 60,000.  Yes... this is going to be tough.  :D

I have an idea of what the Black Sorceress Trailer #2 will be like, but haven't started in consequence to NaNo.

Yeah, that's about all I have to say *smiles meekly*

Good luck writing fellow NaNoer's!!! :D
