SirHartlar Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Halfway there! I'm considering taking a one month break from Runescape. I have sort of lost motivation at the moment, and Chocslice has told me about NaNoWriMo and I really want to be an active part of it. Putting off my goals for a month completely seems like a lot but I might be able to log on at weekends. I haven't decided 100% yet but I feel pretty strongly my playing time might be cut down soon.

SirHartlar Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Why? What is NaNoMo or whatever? :( You could click the link and see. :P What I'll probably end up doing is playing at the weekends and not in the weekday. It'll be a slow month for experience etc but I think I gain a lot from NaNoWriMo so I really want to take time to do it properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if u want to do this hartlar, go for it Thanks everyone, I really hope I can stick with this and see it through to the 50k word count on the 30th. I will probably still get online at the weekends so expect to see updates trickle in occasionally. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjakie_1_1_3 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Wow, that seems like a great idea for you to do. I checked out their website and forum and it seems like a nice and very active community. It'll certainly be a great experience to take part in it and write your own novel! I'm sure you'll be able to do it as well, and it'll be a great help for if you want to become a professional author. I wish you lots of good luck with it, spend your time well and create a great novel :) Skill N' Chill - The Hawt Fun Sexy and Cool Skilling Clan!Skill n' chill website: http://skillandchill.freeforums.org/index.php - Clanchat: Skill N C - IRC Chat: #skillnchill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirHartlar Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 *sigh* I really didn't think I'd be be posting this... At the moment I'm feeling like the writing is too much for me. It averages at about six pages of A4 a day if I want to hit the 50k word goal, I only just managed that on the first day with no homework and nothing else going on. I went out with friends yesterday and did about two and a half pages. I'm really ashamed of myself that I can't even keep up something like that for even the smallest amount of time. I'm going to try and start something else, probably smaller, but in my own time limit. My mum thought the competition was a good idea but I could tell she was sceptical whether I would managed 50k words in a month. I would rather have not written this post but there isn't much else I can do, I simply don't have the time to write 50k words in 30 days. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really don't have to be ashamed if you can't make that. I have a big respect for you just for trying it. And I do think you should set a goal for yourself on it, and then try to write a good novel on that limit. It's more important to meet your own goals than to work your [wagon] of to meet some goals that you just can't make (yet?). Just set a (lower) goal for yourself this time, and maybe next year participate again and aim a little higher. I'm sure that you'll be able to reach that 50k goal as well. Maybe not just yet this year. But I just know you are good enough to make it someday later. And again, I really have a big respect for you for trying it. And you surely don't have to be ashamed if you can't get 50k words.

I've started a new piece already, I'm going to be more careful about this one because it is one of my ideas I seriously would consider developing properly. I think the idea of working to a deadline was the thing that was stressing me out, I wasn't expecting to pull out so early but in the back of my mind I think I knew it was too much for me.

SirHartlar Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 Dagannoth Kings Trip #27 - Solo Maging Veracs Rubbish trip, Draco Draco was my suicider. Two lurers came in whilst he was still killing Prime and Supreme, and he bravely managed to continue and they had to teleport. Unfortunately for me they returned halfway through the trip and when I got hit for 49 by Prime I took that as my que to leave... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voldmort0 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Not best of luck in the clues/trips lately eh.. #-o Keep trying dude, wanna see a nice axe or zerker soon :D Btw G'luck with that site thing, do things within your possibilities. If it's something you enjoy just have fun doing it and don't pressurize yourself too much to the point of it becoming tiring. ;) (even if a little pressure is always good, too much just spoils it) Runescaper since June 2005Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wachtwoord Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Don't give up. It's just like Rs, you have to set goals for yourself, but don't set them too high. Just try it again, but try a bit less words per day. I wish I could write it as well as Sjakie did, but my message is the same. We believe in you and know you can do it. Good Luck with it, I'd love to read a few page if you have something done.

SirHartlar Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 Dagannoth Kings Trip #28 - Solo Maging Veracs This trip was just rubbish. As I went into the lair Supreme got me down to 30 HP - twice. Then the spinolyps decided they were going to pummel me endlessly, meaning I managed only 600 casts. And no drops either.
