I WON! I DID IT, I DID IT, I DID IT!!!
I WON NANOWRIMO! THIS CALLS FOR MORE FIRE EMBLEM REFERENCES!
Yayayayayayayayayayayayayay! I'm super excited to present my next story, North of Never! Unfortunately, it's a total disaster in need of scrapping, editing, and, well, an extreme story make-over. But that's OKAY! I will be happy, and I will celebrate this 11:00 PM victory by going to be and eating a cookie! COOKIES! Oh, my next reference should be Bravely Default. This is actually really fun. I should draw video game characters more often.

nanowrimo2014 draws to a close
Well, my friends, the race has been hard. The fast-paced, low-quality quest to pound out 50000 words in 30 days that is National Novel Writing Month is at last coming to an eventful end, and amid the crackling of thanksgiving turkeys in the oven and the loud whining of people who think Christmas music shouldn't be played before November 27th, another sound is heard.
That's right.
It's the clickety-clacking of hundreds of computer keyboards and typewriters, the scritch-scratching of pens and pencils, and the ka-booming of some poor novice writer's mind being blown by the work he or she had just created. It's the screams of victory, frustration, triumph, and defeat, and perhaps the shattering sound of a computer smashing against the apartment wall next to yours or the hysterical ravings of one driven mad by their own monstrous word goal. These are the sounds of November. These are the sounds of National Novel Writing Month.
Two days left, and I need 2000 words to hit my 50000 word goal. It has taken countless cups of Chamomile tea, innumerable Fire Emblem and Harvest Moon breaks, a plethora of understanding teachers, a will stronger than a Machamp, and a mind keen as a Honedge's blade to get me where I am today. I can only pray that a final sound will be heard on the 30th or before.
The cry of victory as I at last finish writing my fifth Nanowrimo novel, North of Never.
Until then, I will make like Miriel here and ignore the rest of the world.
That's right.

I love doing digital art. It's so much fun!!!
Once more, I'd like to say a thank you to all the brae souls who participated this year. You're writing makes this world a better place. Find a voice. And your inner lunatic.
Nanowrimo, people.
God bless.
