Hi!

I just made a new page to make your lives easier. It contains links to all the texts I’ve posted in this blog and it can be found here. For now everything is in Finnish, but I’m currently writing a piece in English, so stay tuned.

I was asked to join Kiwi Writers, so as a New-Zealander, I did :D There was this awesome challenge of a cat story and since I’m bored, I decided after a moment of hesitation to participate. I’m also gathering the will and strength to go back to NaNo and finish it.

I didn’t read almost anything in November, so I’m taking it back now. I’m reading two Pratchetts at the same time, but a week ago I bought Stephenie Meyer’s New Moon and read it during the weekend. I admit being young and romantic, but I can’t help loving those books (I’m planning on buying Twilight and Eclipse as Christmas presents to myself). And the point is that even thinking about those books makes me want to go back to NaNo and finish it, but somehow it seems impossible. One day I stared at the text in Q10 and thought: “Oh my god, I just can’t write a single word more.” It’s not that I don’t like the story, maybe I’m just afraid of finishing, because as you know I am Miss Unfinished Tales.

Day 5

My attention should be drawn towards a video about WWII, but I’m again thinking about writing.

NaNo is at 7,872 words, so if I write another 2,150 words today, I’ll get to watch one episode of Yes Minister. That’s something worth waiting for.

But I’m having some problems as I’m in the writing team of our Christmas play, and my story should be finished today, but I’ve only written ten words or so. The problem is I was down with cold all weekend and pretty tired, and I just can’t remember what was decided in our last meeting.

I hate this. My head aches, my fingers hurt, my cheeks hurt and my nose is running. I wanna go to sleep.

Sorry, this’ll be mostly in Finnish – again. We had to make a project about some energy source, and ours was wind power. So we had this incredible PowerPoint slide show, and a tale, written by me. In brief, it is about a hedgehog named Hedgehog, who goes off wandering and ends up in a wind farm and tries to destroy the big and white and noisy things, but Spider Pig saves the world!
