I've finally finished my character descriptions for R271 and I have a general outline worked out in my head. I just have to work on chapter outlines. I'm so excited that I'm getting it done so fast and that I have a clear vision of what I want to do. The first time I tried to write a novel I just put my pen to paper. I didn't have a clear notion of where the story was going or who the characters were. I had a few well-written chapters, if I may say so myself. The biggest problem was the ending. I didn't know if I wanted the main character to die or not. For now that story is shelved to make way for R271.
I want to take this opportunity to plug a great product. Firefox! If you aren't using it you really should. You can download all these applications that make it more personable, fun to use, and even make you more productive. Plus you can type random things into the address bar and it will take you right to the website. For example: I just type facebook and it takes me right to facebook.com or I type in Neil Gaiman and it will take me right to his web page. I actually find using Internet Explorer a pain in the butt. And if you accidentally close a tab, there's a button that opens recently closed tabs. It's free to download just google "mozilla firefox" and follow the links. It has an amazing ad blocker plus you can download an application that blocks inscreen ads so you don't have a seizure when those flashing ads pop up unexpectedly.
Aside from writing, cleaning, and downloading applications I have also been watching more and more Full Metal Panic. I'm on the last season now so after this I'm going to take a break from anime and concentrate more on R271. I also have a 3000 word project due on Wednesday about a Sandinista Women's Group in Nicaragua. I'm tres excited and already have everything worked out so I'm not too worried about it.
Here's a picture:

It's not of the women's group but if he was a part of it, whatever "it" is, I would join!
