The Notebook, NaNo Edition, Part the Second.

Sorry, this is a bit late (at least by my standards). I've been so overwhelmed lately with NaNoWriMo and studying for exams. For those of you who were wondering, my current word count stands at about 13,700 and I hope to get to at least 15,000 by tonight. 16,000 would be better so I can …

Hello Fellow WIPpeteers

At this stage of the game, I would predict that those of you participating in NaNo are either freaking out, scrawling those few last plans and getting as much sleep as they can before the real work begins. To read about my own NaNoWriMo preparation check back tomorrow but for now it is WIPpet time. …

Once Again Wednesday

First of all, updates:1. You can find my second instalment in my notebook series here2. If you want a visual cue for any of my characters you can find resemblances on my pinterest boards: Rebellion Rising and Queen of Hearts3. I'll be doing a post on my own experiences at developing a language for my world …

Mercredi, le jour que j’écris.

Yep, that's some French. I always feel that my WIPpet Wednesday intros can get a bit stale so I'm mixing it up a tad. Anyway, onto business! Today is the 16th and also happens to be dictionary day according to my calendar so in honour of that, the following excerpt has some Farilien, a language …

WIPpetology

WIPpetology: the scientific study of the WIPpet in its natural environment. It should be a thing. We can make it a thing. But I can't right now because I've expended my daily allotment of genius of coming up with the word 'WIPpetology'. So yeah, onto the main event. I'm being super nice today and giving …

Why WIPpet doesn’t always happen…

...And why I've been on unannounced hiatus. To be fair, I've no real excuse except to say that writing essays has had to be my priority and I seem unable to multitask well between academic and creative writing. I also feel that the time I spend writing blog posts is time sometimes better spent elsewhere …

A Fresh Start and a Castle

You may have noticed a few changes around here. Namely, the theme. I thought it was time for a change. Tell me how you find it in terms of readability and navigation. 🙂 And now, onto business. Today, because I can't find 28 appropriate lines that work together and don't give too much away yet …

Tis a Silly Scene

So, my merry WIPpeteers, we meet again. As it's the 2st and I have admittedly been a little mean in my offerings, I have for you 21 lines. For those of you new to the game check out this linky for more awesomeness. This is just a fun little scene which may or may not …

What is in a title??

So, my merry WIPpeteers, we meet again. I'm sorry to say that I only have 14 words for you today. For those of you new to the game check out this linky for heaps more awesomeness (and better English :P) Context, you'll want context. I can't say too much for fear of spoilers but I …

Wet Wednesday

It is again Wednesday. *sigh* I considered not posting today. It's winter in my part of the world and a cold, wet disgusting winter at that. After spending all day at uni in the rain and with amount of required readings building up around me at an alarming rate, I felt I couldn't be bothered. …
