nanowrimo_ljWell, everyone's doing it, I suppose I might as well hop the bandwagon while it's going by.
Nihao, my name is Kristine, though I've managed to persuade my friends to call me Aika or Aika-chan because I love dabbling in other cultures. I'm from Canada (eh?), and am attending school during the NaNoWriMo. I hope this won't be a problem for me, since I managed to finish last year during school somewhere around 50,800 words. This is my first year in high school and in an accelerated program so the workload is substantially larger, but I figure if I could do it last year while I was still just a beginner, I'll most definitely be able to do it this year when I'm a NaNo veteran and a much better writer.
As for my writing experience, I've only finished one novel (last year's NaNo, titled 'Morning Sun') which I have yet to edit. I usually write short stories of 1000-8000 words, but I've also written a few long fanfictions (none of which I'm proud of, sadly) and the very rare poem or dialogue. My favorite pieces to write are short stories that put a twist on reality, much like the Twilight Zone. This year's NaNo, currently with no working title, is about a girl writing down her friend's dreams and turning them into stories. It's based on an idea I got from my own friend's dream, so that should work out perfectly.
That's about it for me... anyway, good luck and ganbatte to all the other NaNo-ers here in LJ Land!
