NaNoWriMo Meme Tag 11 - 15

Der NaNoWriMo ist vorbei, aber ich bin noch lange nicht durch mit der Challenge. Wie man rechts sehen kann, habe ich es nicht geschafft 50.000 Wörter niederzuschreiben. Mein Gemütszustand in den letzten Wochen ist wirklich nicht der Beste und ich konnte mich nicht einmal dazu aufraffen online zu gehen, geschweige denn den Blog am Leben zu erhalten. Ich warte sehnsüchtig auf das Frühjahr und zuvor noch auf den Weihnachtsabend mit meiner Familie.

Diese war so gnädig mir schon jetzt mein Geschenk zu überreichen, da ich vor einigen Wochen das Display meiner Digitalkamera zerstört habe und sie somit nicht mehr zu gebrauchen war. Es ist niederschmetternd zu sehen, dass es technisch funktioniert und dann an einem schwarzen Display hapert, da die flüssigen Kristalle ausgelaufen sind. Reparabel ist das nicht mehr und ich bin so extrem knauserig und nachtragend, dass ich mir selber in den Hintern gebissen hätte, wenn ich dazu in der Lage gewesen wäre...

Mehr zu meinen NaNoWriMo Eindrücken beim nächsten Mal!

 Day 11 - Ever tried collaborative writing (such as play-by-post roleplaying)?  If so, what do you think of it?
I love play-by-post roleplaying and enjoy it to write with some online friends I made in our forum. But many people are not able to imagine a nice plot and screw up, because they refuse to talk to each other and think planning will destroy the fun in writing. I think planning is very important and you never know what the other person will write in detail. You just set up a rough schedule nothing more. I do not understand why others are so scared about it.

Day 12 - Imagine you’re behind in your word count goals and are going to pull an all-nighter to catch up.  Screencap a playlist of inspirational music you would use to get you up to speed.
Well, I am behind the word count goals all the time... But I do not like to hear music during writing. Sometimes I hear music to get into writing or I listen to rainymood.com which is very inspiring for me.

Day 13 - Name a male character from your novel.  Describe him through the point of view and words of the female character you introduced in question 3.
Hannah about Keleos Poloma: "I am not willing to talk about this elf. He is as beautiful as stupid, racist, rude and selfish."

Day 14 - Is the sexuality of your characters a large part of your novel’s story?  If so, are there characters who deviate from the heterosexual “norm”?  In what way?
No, it is very subtle. I like to play around with homosexual hints but there will be nothing like a love story or more between my protagonists.
 

Day 15 - Do any of your characters have a disability or mental illness?  If so, how does that affect their development throughout your story?
One of my characters is temporarily blind after fighting a war in a foreign country. He tries to make it back home to his wife, which already began a new life. Years later they finally meet in another city when he already found a new comrade. His wife recognises him, talks to him, spots his blindness and the new woman. Not knowing that the other woman is just helping him to find her, she lets him go, not telling who she is.
