Hehe, I'm procrastinating on my NaNoWriMo project- but it doesn't feel like procrastination any more. I really enjoyed this piece- you've got a great style already in place (and *gasp* ...

4,000 so far...I bet one of my NaNoBuddies that I could hit 8k, but we'll see how that goes. :P Ah! It's going so well! ...definitely needs some editing, but ...

You requested a SPEWlish critique, but since you've already got a few good ones, I'll keep this one fairiy short. I like the fact that you were really trying to ...

Ah, but the trying and failing miserably is always fun to watch- all sorts of corny societal issues were raised after watching 'Pocahontas' when I was maybe seven...fun things, indeed.

Ah, I'm doing a Snoinkish outline. That is, a title for a chapter and that's it...perhaps I'll get to something more inolved eventually. Claudette>> It usually works better just to ...

Ah, I bought this book... But before you kill me, I hated it. I could deal with the chatspeak- could be creative, if portrayed right- but the storyline was trivial ...

I'd agree with that, El- I'm using one for my NaNo just because it doesn't fit in with the rest of the story (it tells the story of the narrator). ...

I'm very much looking forward to reading this, Inertia... With most of my stories, it'd probably have to be the characters. My plots are fairly straightforward- Hourglass is an edgier ...

I'd agree that it has to do with how much work you've put into it- my style seems to drastically improve after NaNoWriMo (and then of course, I don't work ...
