The first draft had been a learning experience. I outlined this draft as much I could and it's going to be way longer than the orignal draft. And I can't for the life of me figure out why I feel that something is missing. Already my prologue and chapter 1 have deviated a bit from the outline, but I might change it back to the orignal plans when I'm rewriting it. To me writing is constantly writing and rewriting until you have it right. Also this damn story has taken over my freaking life. I'm a blogger, but 95% of the time I want to write the story first. I need to diffidently put up some boundries between my work and my hobby. My intital word count goal is 25, 000 words, although I have no clue (but I do have a feeling) if this story will be bigger than that.I'm going to write a buffer and then start posting. I'm hoping to have this story finished by the end of the summer and if it's a success I will contintue to write.

I actually have ideas for original fics, and reading Das Mervin's sporks is teaching me a lot (by smeyer's mistakes) how to write efficentively in first person and just writing period.  And it's freaking motiivation to refine my craft and to get better. I actually got up around 3am and wrote for two good hours. I had to write in 3rd Person POV for the prolouge and it was so hard. I actually really feel more comfortable writing in 1st Person.
