The reason why I have not been blogging very often lately, is because I’ve been writing a lot. I am currently working on the 2nd chapter of my novel. It’s not going as well as I’d planned, but I’m slowly getting there.

I’ve also met a lot of interesting people lately. My friend Figgy told me about her forum, Gathering of the Figments, a community for unpublished writers. If one of your hobbies is writing, make sure you have a look at it.

Next November I plan to do NaNoWriMo for the first time. I’m very excited about it. I have already created the characters in my head and I have a good idea for a plot. It will be written in English¹ and hopefully at the end of November I will have written 50,000 words.

I finished reading New Moon (by Stephenie Meyer) and I didn’t like it as much as Twilight. Right now I am reading Eclipse and I think it’s much better than New Moon. The release date of the upcoming Twilight movie has changed to the 21st of November². Too bad the release dates in other countries don’t seem to have changed.

As many of you probably already know, Stephenie Meyer has put the new novel she was working on, Midnight Sun³, on hold indefinitely, because the first 12 chapters of the novel leaked onto the internet. I felt disappointed and sad after I read the news, but it is understandable. I hope Stephenie will, at one point, have the novel published, because, aside from Twilight, I think it might be one of her best works so far.
