For a book with nearly zero villain actions. A few struggles. And 4 double days I am ahead of my game!

I work next 3 days before back to school next week. Little things to motivate me. Like 2 research papers, 4 finals (2 in person 2 online), 1 more PL show and just 1 real week of school left.

We are at the end friends. I have very little left to finish. My bitty epilogue can rest safely at 600words. Originally was giving it the full 1,667. That means I am ahead of myself by over 1,000words.

Go me!

Oh sorry for the referring to the 2 girls as if they have no names. If I knew them I would write them but I dont :(

“Hailey smiled at the girl with the mirror and the girl with the paintings. They had done so much work. She knew not when she would see them again in person. It made her sad. She felt like they were best friends forever the three of them. Almost as close as she was with Amber and Felicia. Sighing Hailey gave them each a quick hug.”

Happy turkey day! I just wrote 2 days worth. I am repeating tomorrow. My goal is on Monday (or maybe Sunday?) to just have 1 days worth. Thanks to extra word counts daily I only have to if needed pull in around 1,300 per day. But finishing ahead of 50K would be a miracle. Shall see!

I am having too much fun this reunion of girls from other books. Genius! Last minute genius idea!

“Hailey picked up her phone and dialed her parents house. She sighed as Sue picked up. “Hey mom. I am just calling to let you know I am okay. I am staying with a  friends house. Not anyone you know. No. I will not be home for a few days. Yes it has to do with that. No do not worry about it. Yes I know. If you see her again let me know okay? I love you too. Talk to you soon. Give dad my love.”

Desperate times call for desperate measures! When I was planning my last 11 days I decided to pull back to 2 characters from previous NaNo’s. My first 2 to be exact. I cant even remember their names and although I have copies of the bks somewhere neither were written on this laptop!

Oddly enough NaNo website doesnt show their names either for past books. So I am just relying on memories and calling them girl each. Stop laughing. I want to hit my 50K pretty badly. This is a stretch.

And had to do a double day today. I might have to repeat this tomorrow or Friday. Glad we are almost there. Wth LOL

“So um I brought you both here to ask if you have any questions. Let me know! Hailey was sitting on her bed while Amber and Felicia sat still upset in her room on a beanbag chair and at the desk chair.“So who was that girl and why did she kidnap us?” Amber asked finally able to control her upset shock.“She was this girl that I knew when I was a kid before you guys and she has this grudge because she thinks I like stole her boyfriend from her recently. I do not know how she found me but she is crazy. Actually is. Glad I got you guys free. So sorry about that!” Hailey said shaking her head. She had no idea what she would do if they asked bigger questions. Clearly Heather had not done anything too crazy to make them think she was a bad guy instead they thought she was just a regular human this was good. She was not ready to let her two best friends know the truth they might never be able to handle this. She barely could handle it herself. Nothing good comes from telling someone you are way different from them.”

“Darkness came into the world when evil entered it. Then it spread from earth to all the other planets. Zornista did not fall too far from this but due to the purity of her people and the purity of life the darkness only was able to break through when it got bored with earth and left part of its deepest darkness behind to falter there. It searched for life on other planets. Several have life although those on earth only think they have the people and the things. There has always been life on other planets.”

“Moving her hand against the water above the stream Hailey smiled. The water seemed to respond moving in waves and forming small ripples that shot across the water and moved the near by bird on there. Hailey was unsure it looked like a duck but there were so many animals here that could be from anywhere. She was unsure what to call it except floating bird so she did.”

Finally figured out how to finish this book. Its been a torture. When you think up an idea you need to plan better how to get there. I normally do. But this year got away from me. And here is this book born in the middle of a not so fun year to end it all.

I wont give up. Crap and all it will be done and I will win.

Rainbow Brite just came into this. Till now I thought SPN was leaking into my book aka the darkness. Then I realized as I wrote today my main Hero Hailey sounds like Wisp in the first Rainbow Brite.

THIS. WAS. NOT. PLANNED.

I amuse easily.

“Hailey had no idea what would happen when the door she had painted began to open slowly. Instead of that guy coming to and slamming it in her face after telling her to do all the powers and her sleeping on the bed to get answers she finally was ready to be home again.“

I have no idea how I am going to draw this book out another 11 days. I am being frankly honest. This bk has become the biggest BS one since my first one and more because at least that book had a purpose. I feel this has none.

That is all! Oh well

“Hailey knew she could only rest for so long. She fell asleep for an hour and dreamt of beautiful things of planets she had never seen. She dreamt of home and her family and life she would never had. The odd part about these dreams is she felt like she was actually there and it had actually happened. Had she been raised around her kind and had lived a normal life there. She loved earth she loved her human parents but nothing would compare to the fact that she wished she could have grown up on her world like she was supposed to. She should have grown up on Zornista not Earth.“
