I’m seriously doing it.

Months and months and months ago, I told you guys I was writing a book.  (You guys = the four people who read this.  It’s okay.  I like you guys best anyway.)

Well, I fell out of love with it.  The Chicago one.  Mostly because I haven’t found the courage to kill Jack London yet.  (Sounds awful.  That’s what you get for naming your characters after real people.  WordPress, it’s a character name.  Don’t get mad.)

What I didn’t tell you is that at the same time I was basically writing what I envisioned as a fanfic.  About me going to Japan on foreign exchange.

I thought it was some mindless drivel that I’d never actually flesh out, but rather scribble in for my own satisfaction, but I read the Twilight series, and it made me think of Kenta and Co., and it made me want to write it.  So.  I am!

I have 30+ pages (that are going under heavy revision while I wait for wordpress to actually load) and a plot, and I’ve decided on a couple details that I don’t mind flexing but plan on keeping consistent.  There’s an outline, basically, and it’s going to be functional as a novel.

I’m not putting a timeline on this, but I AM psyched to be writing something.  I don’t think I’ll even try for publication or anything.  That’s not something I’m thinking about in much more than passing.  I’m writing this because I promised myself I would.

Just wanted to share!
