DONE DONE DONE-ED-Y DONE
In yo’ face, Ganondorf!
Hope you enjoyed. Still an epilogue coming up.
A side note: whenever I clicked on ‘add link’ here in the post creation screen… I giggled. I admit it.
This chapter felt… repetitive. I was so anxious to fit in all the dramatic lines that I think some points were kind of hammered in. And the Franz didn’t get the kick-butt speech that I wanted him to, because I forgot what it was about. It was something about unity, anyway.
Man, I have to say, I love writing banter between Colin and Link and assorted other people. I feel I’m reasonably pleased with this chapter. Although now I’ve forgotten all the things I was going to say about it. I stayed up all night again! This is probably bad for my skin and my mental health, but it’s okay. I’m creationing. I deal with it later.
IF THIS WERE A STANDARD NANOWRIMO I WOULD HAVE WON NOW
ELEVEN DAYS (TEN BECAUSE I DIDN’T WRITE ON THE FIRST DAY) (OR MAYBE NINE BECAUSE I MISSED ONE DAY AFTER THAT, TOO)
THIS IS A NEW RECORD FOR 50,000 WORDS FOR ME
I wasn’t really feeling the fights at the beginning of this chapter, so they’re kind of lame. : / But I had some fun trying to reconcile OoT Hyrule and TP Hyrule. Also I may have to increase my target word count because I am so not even half-way through and I’m already almost at 50,000. Pretty sure this story is going to come in at 100,000+ words. That would be interesting. I don’t think I’ve had a story so long before. Not that long stories are better, but I’m not writing this story to be concise. I went into it thinking ‘this time, I’m just going to write as much as I want to about side characters and stuff’. There’s still more action in it than I thought there would be, and I’m still not fully loose and writing without feeling boundaries on how much rambling is appropriate. Which is probably good for you guys. XD
Next chapter is for Franz! Whoo!
I went for another run today. I’m pretty sure that what I’m going through right now is the opposite of depression. Like, in the winter I get Seasonal Affective Disorder, and this last winter I had extra issues that made life difficult, and I couldn’t do very much on my own. Well, now I’m doing things (on my own, even) and feeling… not always happy, but positive. I wonder if it’s caused by being solar-powered now that it’s summer and there’s more daylight, if this is a natural annual bio-rhythm thing, or if it’s something else that I don’t know about yet, or if it’s something that I’ve always had and am just becoming aware of it now that I can slow down and listen to it.
Kind of want to start drawing things again. So I can do fantastic fanart of all the things I am a fan of.
I really like this new band I’m listening to, Genticorum, and I really like the Zelda TP OST… I like Zelda music… I must acquire more of it. Legally, if at all possible. But that assumes I have money. I must acquire money (by making music!) so I can acquire more music. Yesssss.
Whoo! Today was eventful. I posted the last chapter, and then I went for a run, and it was great, and then I wrote the next chapter, and then I went to practice organ and found out that I’m rushing all through the fugue in my beloved Buxtehude C major, and now I’m back and just edited this last chapter. I really want to keep practicing organ. But I was sweating like a pig in that organ loft, which was still warm even though it was long past sunset. Man. But recording things really works in showing up things that aren’t right. So I’ll keep working on that!
THERE’S TOO MUCH MUSIC TO LEARN
So we’ll see how many chapters I write tomorrow. I didn’t get around to doing laundry, so I’ll have to do that tomorrow morning before I go on a run, hopefully a run with my friend, and then in the evening I am considering going back to the church and practicing some more even though it’s not my normal practice day. If I go late enough at night, no one will know or care. : )
I do want to keep writing. I wrote 12,000 words today, according to my Camp NaNoWriMo profile! Hee! If I do that much tomorrow, then I’ll have introduced Franz to the story! I’m excited for Franz. I keep adding characters, and Twilight Princess is already full of interesting characters! Just wait until the Resistance shows up! But anyway, in this chapter, Midna has some things to say, and Navi and Rana have some things to say back to her. o_O Goron Link also gets a cameo, heh. And can you guess what talisman Midna is talking about that protects against the Twilight? Here’s a hint… it’s not from Twilight Princess… it’s from a much earlier game! XD
