NaNoREVISEMo: Day 2

In Which We Initiate Mission: Revise World Domination 101 from Scratch

As is typical, the first day of NaNo was a complete wash for me.

(Some year I don't have to answer for my productivity after November AND have a great idea, I'm going to do the whole waiting until the stroke of midnight thing with people. But that'll have to be a day I don't work, which, see above.)

In my tentative little NaNoREVISEMo plans, though, first two days were for reading the manuscript, the third scheduled to be for the writing of GAME PLANS.

So. Today is a wash to things besides watching soccer and reading manga, anyhow, I'm going to go read that baby!


:stand in for Jude Winchester:

WAIT, WHY DOESN'T HE GET THE GIRL
DID THAT WHOLE SERIES SKIP HIS LOVELIFE?!

[...already knows one thing she wants to fix]

you're sick, I'll 'umor ya.

It was just exactly the kind of day you expect from November today...dreary gray and misty, rain looming but not falling with any power.

Perfect for reading a scary manga series! "Broken Angels" (more accurately, "Breaking Angels") was a bit surreal and left some major plotpoints unexplored but kept me reading quite avidly.

I found a decent manhwa, even in the usual style, too! "My Boyfriend is a Vampire" is the perfect blend of rich-school fantasy/vampire secret society/gangster boy who looks like a girl who has a sad mishap with a vampire resulting in gender-bendering...

State of the Nano

is I've read that manuscript so many times I had to skim it instead of actual reading. Judgment pending on whether it's something I can actually work with or not, but I think the language roughness is worst in the first few chapters, and with some expansion and trimming of weird verbiage, it is as good a story as I remembered. At the core. Under the murk and swamp-muck.
