Feeling like an Author

So I have an idea for my 2011 NANO, and this year I am doing things in a different way. A way that has me sitting here at the Toronto Reference Library with books that you have to get someone else to find from the stacks for you! I havn't ever had to ask for that kind of book before so it feels neat... Though I am getting hungry and about ready to stop from reading the advanced analysis of a way of writing I did find one very interesting book.
I felt like writing here about my NANO planing... not much to say yet but maybe soon.

I finished Highschool... Again!

So my two year adventure in taking highschool courses online is done. After 7 classes and two years and way to many exams I am DONE! I don't know if I did better or worse than I would have taking them in real highschool... but If I had taken them I wouldn't remember it for starting school now anyways... School starts kinda on the 29th with a English test (like the grade 10 one) and then a week of random events and playing with people as Frosh (there will be a point where I sit in a bath tub full of purple die...). I also start Fresh Meat training for Derby! So everything that is exciting starts in 25 days... till then I have two raven events... two derby tournaments and not a lot else to do...
That not a lot else will probably turn into Eq2 and sewing... though I want to work out the plan for my Nano Novel now... i'm thinking a epistolary novel. I was contemplating that or a journal kind last year. But I think its a little harder than just writing, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I can do NaNo. I know this now. Since it's never going to be my intention to sell the thing lets try something worth trying. Book one was nonsense space thing... this year... epistolary... there's so many ways to take it... lovers... family... maybe a kid writing to her grandma... best friends... threw time lol... step one idea... step two... read some epistolary books and learn about the stile. 25 days of nothing to do? Na, lets do something real with this time!
Ok now to go write about some books I have read because its been way too long since I did that!
So...Well...Ya...
