... is still not finished. xD But I feel like doing some reminiscing, or whatever. IT'S THE NEW YEAR! etc etc. (It may be Feb, but you cannot deny that it is no longer 2010.)
March 26 last year, I posted on here that I'd finished the first chapter. And the post I wrote before that, I said I could have the first draft finished in a couple of months. Hahahahaha. Silly fewl. Well, as of right now, I've written 40,791 words. And I've done thirteen out of twenty-three chapters, so (oh wow,
holy shit I didn't realise this until exactly this moment) it's over half-finished.
So I've been writing this for about a year. I don't know the exact date that I started the first chapter, but it was probably a couple of weeks before I posted the journal entry saying I'd finished.
I came up with the characters 30th of October, 2008 (I know this because I posted a really shitty story about them for some competition online), and I didn't do anything for a long time with them.
(On a side note which may be amusing, their names are the names of my two guitars: Simon and Fitzwilliam. xD)
And then I posted another really shitty story about them on the 12th of Feb, 2009. And then another on April 1st, the same year.
It was after the third story (which was about faeries. It was fun. xD) that I decided that I wanted to write something longer. And then I guess i just spent a really fucking long time thinking about it before I actually wrote it down. The plot changed a lot. And it still keeps changing because it
won't sit still like a good child! Gosh.
It's kind of odd to think that I've spent so much time writing about the same characters. And that, after this is finished, I probably won't write about them ever again. -dramatic sigh-
Yeah, kind of pointless entry but I thought it might be at least slightly interesting. And it was a wonderful way to procrastinate from writing. xD
