It's a strange sort of Saturday in the tower. So, we're celebrating with a strange sort of poem.

"The House" by @cthompswrites

sorry but I really just love the first two sentences of my #NaNoWIP

[Christel Thompson @CThompsWrites]

at keeping up with my actual word count on a daily basis. Which means, of course, I don’t update NaNo every day, which NaNo doesn’t seem to like! (Currently it won’t let me log any words past 11/5…anyone have any ideas?)
But anyways. Yeah. A ways to go yet, but I’ll get there

[Christel Thompson @CThompsWrites]

Current (typed) word count, including a character outline, sits at 4,863 words.
To win NaNo, I need to reach a goal of 50,000– and I’m a little goblin who has a compulsion to scribble all first drafts into a notebook before typing them out; and this makes me kinda shit (1/2)

[Christel Thompson @CThompsWrites]

#NaNo WIP, or otherwise known as Existential Personhood Battle Royale WIP (Ex-Royale for short, maybe?) is a something I would gently elevator pitch as a adult speculative-fiction, with a Neon Genesis Evangelion sun, a Stephen King moon, and a Watchmen-esque rising.

[Christel Thompson @CThompsWrites]

Literally forgot this account exists because I am the living worst. However— I am doing NaNo! Will probably dump all of my thoughts about it here so I don’t harass my non-writing followers

Hello friends: I have a new short story out! It’s been quite a while since I’ve published fiction (thanks to my love-affair with poetry), but if you’d like to read it, the link will be in the replies below. Many thanks to @Pierto_Co for believing in me and my little words 🖤

Things I love writing:
1) ~p a l p a b l e t e n s i o n~
2) hate-to-love relationships
3) dream sequences

Things I dread writing:
1) opening sentences
2) scenes that describe pandemonium/crowds
3) complicated/drawn out action sequences

(ty @heregoesthesun for the tag!)
