I'll have this chat open until roughly 10pm EST, available for word wars
A bit awkwardly to the left. What's the most frustrating thing you've got going on with your novel right now?
Heheh. Currently it's dialogue. A ton of my work so far has been dialogue and it just sounds so trite. I'm really bad at it.
I should make a hot cup of tea...but I'm gonna wait on that for a bit.
I'm wrestling with time progression. It gets me everytime. How to skip chunks of time in a novel... @_@
Well, I AM writing erotic fiction this year, but sadly, yes, sammich was the most interesting thing I was doing that moment. I'm RPing over on furc, but am happy to host some word wars at the same time!
Erotic fic sounds like it would be great for NaNo... lots of description.
Dialogue is more fun for me--just add witty banter that goes back and forth--easy on the word count. I'm terrible with descriptions.
Normally descriptions are muuuch easier for me, but those are being stubborn this month too! >.<
My beta reader is hounding me about that, yes. Furcadia trained me to cut a lot of adjectives OUT of my writing, even though I'm pretty good at it. It's a bit of a knuckle-cracker to pop those mental joints back into place.
