Hamilton Word Crawl Act I
Tumblr media
ACT I
Alexander Hamilton: Put a pencil to your temple, connect it to your brain. Write 500 words to inspire your neighbors to take up a collection to send you to the mainland. :533
Aaron Burr, Sir: Talk less. Smile more. And write more. Do a 15-minute sprint. :106
My Shot: Don’t throw away your shot. Sprint to the nearest thousand. :486
The Story of Tonight: Raise a glass to freedom! Take a break, and write 150 words. :188
The Schuyler Sisters: Work! Work! Do a 3-digit sprint. :587
Farmer Refuted: Oh my god, tear this dude apart – in a 5-minute word war. :160 (I had no one to word war with so just did a 5-minute sprint)
You’ll Be Back: Write 200 words to stop George from sending a fully-armed battalion to remind you of his love. :200
Right Hand Man: Rise up! Even if you’re working with a third of what our Congress has promised, you can still sprint 3% of your current word count. :235 (I was only supposed to do 84)
A Winter’s Ball: Hamilton may want to fight, not write, but you still have a novel to finish. Write 250 words. :401
Helpless: One week later and you’re writing a letter nightly. So get tonight’s letter (or word count) done in a 10-minute sprint. :246
Satisfied: You will never be satisfied… with the word count from the last challenge. Don’t be “helpless”- write twice as much as you just wrote. :522
The Story of Tonight (reprise): Raise a glass to freedom- something you will never see again! At least, not for the rest of the month. Take a break, have a drink. We’ll see you on the other side of the war.
Wait For It: Are you willing to wait for it? Or do you exhibit no restraint? Listen to the song, and either take another break or write until it’s over. :117
Stay Alive: Outrun, outlast. Hit ‘em quick, get out fast. Do three rounds of 100-word sprints. :949 (once again got distracted and forgot to trach my word count)
Ten Duel Commandments: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine- It’s time for a #1k1hr! :991 (but only because I finished the book I was originally working on)
Meet Me Inside: Write 500 words. That’s an order, from your commander. :559
That Would Be Enough: We don’t need a legacy. We don’t need money. But you do have to write. Do a 5-minute sprint. That would be enough. :300
Guns and Ships: And so the balance shifts! If you can rap this, take a break from the writing and rattle off these verses. If you can’t, write 200 words (the approximate words-per-minute of this song). :272
History Has Its Eyes On You: I know that we can win. I know that greatness lies in you. So write 750 words. :787
Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down): Through the night, we have one shot to live another day. Fight that Fifty Headed Hydra! :193 (I hit the backspace 6 times.... oops)
What Comes Next?: Wow. Do you have a clue what happens now? Finish out your current scene and figure that out. :393
Dear Theodosia: Do whatever it takes. Make a million mistakes. Just write 300 words without deleting. :421
Non-Stop: How do you write every second you’re alive? How do you write like you need it to survive? Write non-stop in a 1-hour sprint. :1,842
Total for Act I:9,961

It was a pretty productive day today. I have figured out how to extend my project a bit more. it still won't hit the 50k mark but it is better than nothing.
other than that I didn't do much in the waiting department. I spent most of the night watching K-Dramas

Last line written today: I was supposed to go to my parents today then go to the execution with them but I just couldn't stand it so I sent my mum a message that I wasn't going so I didn't want to go so I will just stay at the packhouse.
Favorite line written today: "but my girl has been excelling in combat with a wolf... he should have known that." I filled in as I walked over to the bed. I tried to hold back the laugh as I looked at Cain.

Ok, I found this on twitter and thankfully the alignment chart features the name of the person who made, so thanks to @checannealepka on Twitter we have this thing.  I brought it here because:  I realized I jump between pantser, plantser and plotter a long time ago.  My current WIP is deep chaotic pantser, which causes some trouble right now. My NaNo WIPs? Neutral plotter  How I usually write? Somewhere between lawful plantser and true plantser.  And strangely I realized for the last three years I stuck with true plantser and neutral plotter, so it is not a big surprise I suddenly became the mother of pantsing again.

I’m writing for me.
I’m writing for my grandma.
I like supporting other writers.
I want to get more interaction on my own writing.
I don’t expect reciprocity.

Camp NaNoWriMo Diary Day 13
Tumblr media
So today started with a nap! I didn't sleep well (as per usual) so I'm going to try and sleep for a few hours then get up and do some writing.
I again put off writing by making food and playing Sims 4. I have a Live stream starting in two hours so I am going to give myself until then to relax and play Sims.
Okay, the Live has started and so I plan on spending the next two hours writing! wish me luck!
I ended up writing a bit but then I went back to my NaNo project from last year so I'm going to be getting it edited soon so I need to make sure it is finished. I at least got the minimum word count for today

The main character starts school again after 2 years away due to an accident where she meets her mate. The only issue is that her mate is not only her ex but also who she blames for the accident. After telling him she wasn't nothing to do with him they go their separate way... the issue is that she sees that he has a perfect life at this school. While she had been in pain and struggling for the past two years he had been living a perfect life. She cannot stand the thought so she decided she is going to take her revenge on him.
