We lied. We are not at war. There is no enemy. This is a rescue operation.
The bad news: didn't do squat as far as work on manuscript goes.

The good news: Barfed up 5k and change in lame stream of conscious stuff.

made it.

so I'm gonna :toxx: 4k for November but I'm taking another run at NaNo this year. Seb would it be okay if I let the 4K stand as a proxy for my NaNo attempt? I write very slowly due to physical issues and highly doubt I'll be able to finish, but I want to try and the :toxx: is a good kick in the pants. I guess if this is frowned upon I could just nut up and do the full-blooded :toxx:

Welp, last year I made 15k or so. This year I made.....

7k.

Although something is off because my tracker on the Nano website shows 12k written. I did suffer a computer crash that wiped out some stuff I had open without saving. So it goes :shrug:

I'm gonna give myself a break and come back to the thread in January. All the best to my fellow December Longwalkers and I'll see you in the next year!

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

gently caress it, RL keeps punching me in my stupid face but I can either write more or just resign myself to slowly being ground down by the mills of capitalism. I'll :toxx: for 8k this month and I'll either write this amount or die trying*



*If I stop posting on these forums after December 31, feel free to assume after a full month of no new posts, that I indeed have died and permaban me on February 1

OK, I made it. Actually, I was already safely over the 8k-threshold a week ago, but I kept adding and revising the text I wrote.

Also, the short story I started mutated into a giant essay about writing. I'm still not sure if it was fate or bad luck that I stumbled over an old essay I'd started last year hiding among my work files just 500 words into the story I wanted to write.

Well, at least I guess I finished this thing, for all that's worth!

Some stats:

Word count Before December (BD): 6044 (written in 2021, then left to rot)

Word count December 31: 17477

Words added in December 2022: 11433

For some reason I got really inspired to finish this weird collection of math formulas, writing tips and insane background stories for ship-classes. Since this is now safely behind me, I guess next month I'll try to work on my old novel, forever caught in endless revision hell for the last couple years. (It's written in German though, so I can't pledge for January, as I'm mostly editing and revising poo poo, not actually writing new material like with this hideous mutation.) (Also the whole foreign language thing, I guess.)

Oh, before I forget, the entire thing is now online here, on my Blog.

Edit:

By the way, I couldn't resist adding and rewriting even more poo poo when I transplanted my essay from Libre Office to my Blog, so the word count is actually a bit lower then the total thing.

Now I'm kind of glad I didn't pledge for January, that month was bad.

But seeing as I have a clear run through February, I'll pledge 4k words for February. Among other things, my publisher started a new competition for tiny short stories this month, and I want to try to get an entry in.

I'm doing a bunch of editing for this stuff so I don't know if :toxx: is the way to go for February, on the other hand this thread is like, the only way I can actually hold myself accountable to write so :toxx: 4k February I guess.
