NaNoWriMo 2012

Yeah yeah, I know, I'm a masochist. Even with nerve damage in my right hand I was bound and determined to complete NaNo this year. I'm not doing too badly. I'm pushing things so I can finish as soon as I can, but my current limit is about 2k per day, and it's not all that coherent.

My story is about a teenage boy who can bring things to life with a touch. When he was two he killed for the first time with his teddy bear - completely by accident, but the guy deserved it. Now in his teens, the kid, Zack, (short for Zacharias Reynard), has 'Animated' mannequins and puppets and dolls to use as his own crew to steal things and so forth - the kicker? He's actually a good kid, he's just amoral after all the shit life has heaped on him.

It's pretty weird writing this, because unlike previous years, I had no prep, hell, I didn't even think I'd be able to use my hand, so I started NaNo with an idea and nothing else.

Wish me luck in reaching the finish line, yeah?

Hugs,

Jaz

Wow. Good luck - the plot definitely sounds like fun, leaving you plenty of options and directions to take the story in. (Maybe just as well you didn't have too much time to prep and plan stuff?)
