pink-gumball asked: Hi there!! I need to ask a mighty big favor from you. Today is my older sister's birthday. The big 18! Since I'm only in 8th grade, with no job, I have no clue what I could possibly do for her! So I came up with a lovely idea. I will help her gain followers. So would you mind helping me surprise my big sissy. Her tumblr is wizardpiss. If you decide to help me, I will be so happy! I love...

one-girls-love-of-books asked: I just started my first NaNoWriMo this year. I HATE it. I mean, of COURSE I'll end up doing it next year, how could I not. My friends ask me what's so bad and this is what I ended up telling them: Seeing your AWFUL writing without editing it (I don't know if yours is like this, but mine sure is) and NOT being able to do something about it's like being trapped and not being able...
ma-utopie asked: What do you think of the quote "Often, the less there is to justify a traditional custom, the harder it is to get rid of it."

YAY!
From the answers I got on my question about word count, it sounds like you guys are moving very well along! Some of you said that you have already reached, or are almost to 50k! Congrats! And goals of 100k? Woot! Go authors! :D
A few of you also asked me what my word count is. As of today, I got 50k. :) I’m shooting for 60k, but I’m nearing the end of my plot, so I don’t know...
How is your word count doing?

Come check out my official blog for my novel, WUM!... →
p-oi asked: Hi, I'm keely and a writer too :) I was just wondering if you've written/published anything, i'd love to read it!
seafoamanddriftwood asked: Firstly, I love your blog and what you do. I just found it on tumblr, and I'm a little obsessed. I'm an aspiring writer. I'm very confident in my abilities when it comes to narrative writing but I seem to have hit a wall. I'm finding it hard to find inspiration. How would you suggest that us novice writers come up with ideas and overcome writing blocks?

NaNoWriMo Meme Day 1 →
Day 1 - Have you participated in NaNoWriMo before? If so, which years and what end result? If not (or even if so, for that matter), what’s your connection to writing? Why do you want to participate this year?
Yep! This is my second year participating in NaNo. Last year (2011) was my first year participating, and I won with a little over 50,000 words! I was very pleased with myself, and very...

Happy NaNo Day!
I just wanted to say good luck to anyone who has already started writing! If you need any help with anything, feel free to ask and I will answer as best as I can! Let’s all win together! :D I know I already got to my personal word goal today, and by midnight I hope to have several more thousand. I am writing my camp novel from earlier this year.

Suggestions for your NaNo playlist
Of course, it depends what you’re writing, but at the more dramatic points of my own novels, I really enjoy The Dear Hunter, especially the album Act III: Life and Death. Also, the Frances the Mute by The Mars Volta, and Crimes by The Blood Brothers.
Thank you for the suggestions! I’ll definitely check those out :)

winterdragon101 asked: Hey, I found your blog only a few moments ago and I'm so pleased to see there is another writer out there in the tumblr world. ;D I adore your posts and relate to so many of them. I have a single question for you: do you know of any good editing agencies out there? I've finished a novel and would love to see it on the shelves of my local bookstore one day, but I sorta need someone to...

haxil asked: I spend a lot of my writing time doing all the little unneeded details, like the year and the era, the style and the characters life stories, what makes them the way they are and how that can relate to this character etc. then I never feel promoted to actually writing the story so I'm left with huge plans of things i don't want to do anymore.

The London Magazine itself is a literary magazine that accepts submissions, which leads to publication in their magazine; however I wanted to connect to people on a different...
