Faster, faster!

I've been sleeping well. I'm still waking up a few times every night, but it doesn't stress me the least bit and I'm actually capable of falling back asleep. I've been getting up early, feeling bright and happy, which is completely unlike me. I used to be that person who felt physical pain at the sheer thought of getting up from the bed before noon and after that I felt groggy all day. I love my life. Today I experienced briefly something I haven't felt for ages - excitement!

It's November and I decided to participate in NaNoWriMo again. And not only that, I'm also committed to finishing it! If you don't know yet, NaNo is about writing a 50k word novel in 30 days, and it's organized every November. I took part in it once a long time ago, but didn't finish and only now I feel motivated enough to try again and actually do it. Yesterday I found myself writing some sort of young adult supernatural horror angst piece (with absolutely no vampires, werewolves or paranormal romance). In English. God, it's so crap and I love it. Feels really awkward to write stories in English though. I've never done that unless you count the school compositions, but it's been good fun and practice so far.

I also don't know why this genre. I don't like teenagers, I don't know anything about them, I wasn't very interesting teen myself. I also don't read horror novels, because they either bore me to death or make me paranoid for weeks. But I had an idea and November had already started and the NaNo-train was leaving, so I decided to just go with it. I started my project ambitiously by describing landscapes. I can't help it, I love weather and I love talking about it. But got to dash, I've got a ton of fun stuff to do today. Also, if you can't tell, I think my thyroid meds are working!
