To Write or Not To Write?
Oct. 29th, 2004 11:11 am50000 words in 30 days. Sounds like total insanity to me, but also like possibly fun.
I can't see me coming up with any kind of decent Idea between now and monday, but it might be just as much fun to try writing something totally ridiculous. Instead of trying to avoid cliches, throw in as many as possible, with every adjective going, Eye of Argon stylee.
Afterall look at wossname, the Xanth guy, he actually makes a living out of that shit.
Its been a while since I did anything that seriously challenged my brain and even longer since I tried writing anything other than room descs and LJ entries :p
So it could be worth a shot - and its not like I ever have to show it to anyone!
And, looking at some of my entries, I am almost as verbose when I write as I am when I talk, so maybe I can knock out 50k ;)
But I'll never know unless I try.
I think I just talked myself into it...
