NaNoWriMo Day 22
Nov. 22nd, 2008 11:28 pmBleah.
I played City of Heroes last night. I slept in late today. I played more City of Heroes. I went shopping. I read three volumes of manga (aside: one of the mangas that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
skyoxford recently lent me was La Corda d'Oro, about a girl with a magic violin. I liked it, but not quite enough to go out and buy more volumes... until last night when I was at Half Price Books and found volumes 2, 3, and 4 for 4.50 each. So... I read all of them today. Waste of my day!)
Anyway I'm supposed to have... eh, about 36,600 words written by today. This weekend is my weekend to finally get caught up too, or else I may run out of time. But as of tonight I'm at about 32,000 words, according to Open Office. I don't really trust it's word counter and it's an annoying program but I decided to stop using Word Perfect because I only have Open Office at work (or Word, which I refuse to use) and the constant switching between two programs was causing bigger problems than Open Office creates on its own. It still likes to add formatting to every new line and keeps switching me to 10 point type when I'm not looking (I'm trying to use only 12 point Times New Roman type, I can't for the life of me figure out how to stop it from changing to 10 point type seemingly at random).
I'm working my way through chapter 20, in which Ranma fights a demonic serpent in Harajuku while dressed as a gothic lolita girl, Nabiki moves across town to Ukyo's new restuarant, and Akane takes a motorbike ride with Akela and Rin to Hakone, a resort town two hours South of Tokyo, where they get into a fight.
I might not be able to fit all of that into a single chapter, we'll see.
