I'm very technically behind 300 words today, but that surprises me anyway, because there's so much homework this week. I was starting to worry, even, that this week was going to ruin my chance at winning NaNo this year. I guess, for another day, I'm safe.
Chapter 44 is almost done, but it too has places where it needs improvement, so I'm thinking maybe I won't be posting anything new in November for He's There, but then editing what I got through in December and posting once a week.
13017 / 50000 words. 26% done!
Now, I don't know if this is cheating, but I would hope not, as I did it last year as well when I split my writing into two stories. I wrote almost a thousand words tonight doing an assignment for Creative Writing that turned into a little one-shot for Adventures in Wonderland, so I added that to my word count.
As for why it's an AIW fanfic, she never told us we had to come up with original people, and I figured my teacher wouldn't know this show and just think I was interpreting iconic characters. For those of you still wondering "why the hell are you writing AIW fics for school?", the answer is simple and I hope you can be sympathetic: the class is driving me nuts. It's my least favorite and our teacher is a grad student who doesn't know how to engage a class and stimulate their brains. So it was either shoot myself or make this assignment fun in some way.
The only thing is it's a little serious! I took an oooold idea that I once joked about with a friend about this jacuzzi Hatter made for the Dormouse in one episode that almost killed him. Our joke was that he went flying and actually died, and Hatter and Hare tried to cover it up. My assignment features them acknowledging that they killed him and wondering if they should tell the truth, but it's kind of sad. It's another part of that Wonderland I imagine when "the cameras are off" and truly bad things happen that can't be laughed off. However, it's still Wonderland, so there are still all of the zany things.
ANYWAY, posted it under cut. Tell me what you think, AIW friends.
