"Find out the reason that commands you to write; see whether it has spread roots into the very depth of your heart. Confess to yourself you would have to die if you were forbidden to write." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

NaNoWriMo UhOhMoFo

That's right, kiddies. NaNoWriMo starts in 4 Minutes, I've got a notebook and pen in my lap, all of my notes and plot points around me, and I'm ready to go.

And a little scared shitless.

What if I can't keep up?

What if I run out of steam?

What if I get distracted by trivial things?

Oh yeah, that's right--I won't.

I'm registered on the site. If any of you are doing it too, let me know. We can do a write-in together. I'll give you one hint about my screenname: It begins with 'Pusher', and ends with 'ofPens'. I mean, what else am I going to use? It's tattooed on my body, and is hella motivational.

So, this blog will probably begin to be more active with updates about the masochistic joy I get out of literary expression.

And now it's midnight. Gotta jet.

Hey!

Hey guys.

You know that thing you've been wanting to do? You know, that thing that you always plan on doing but something usually comes up and keeps you from being able to do that thing?

Well, no more excuses. No time like the present. Do it.

It's all about action. We can sit around here thinking about it, but it's not going to get us anywhere. You know, like the disgruntled music/movie snobs that use their displaced anger to make others feel unimportant and small because they don't have the talent/drive/mental capacity to do it themselves. Those people sit around and think. And brood. And as for quality of life?

Shot to shit by copious amounts of drinking/cocaine and prescription pill abuse.

Where was I going with this?

Oh, right--Get up and do something. Or else you'll become a loser. In life.
