Niccy's Blog 2012

[Niccy]

Hello Crazy Club! I know it's been a while, but I just revamped SciFiWriMo in a three days, and it shouldn't take me much longer than that to fix up CraClu.

For those of you that don't know me, I'm Niccy (admin and all that jazz). I have 3 dogs, a guinea pig, and, as of recently, a kitten named Mika.

Watch out, I'm about to brag. I'm almost a Junior in high school, and I do a lot of extra-curriculars (Cap't of the Solar Car Team, President of Writer's Club, potentially Editor-in-Chief, otherwise St-ff M-mber of Potpourri -- the literary magazine, and President and Co-Founder of Young Democrats) along with keeping around a 4.3 GPA. I've got a lot of AP tests to take next year (Spanish 4 -- when I've only taken 1 year of Spanish, AP US Government and Politics, AP English 3, AP US History), along with the ADDA Architectural certification exam, which I'm trying to not admit I'm nervous for.

I'm done, now. I haven't been writing a lot lately, but I'm taking Creative Writing next year and I need to get back into my flow. I'll post some excerpts or something in a few days. For now, let's chat!

I just narrowed down the "currently-reading" shelf on my Goodreads account to 3 books: A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin, Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk, and Angel Time by Anne Rice. Also on a bookish note, my goal for this week is to read all of A Clash of Kings.

I lost my first copy of ACoK at school, but luckily I have a second. Needless to say, I didn't get time to finish it yet.

I have to finish FIght Club by the 17th since I'm borrowing it from the library and there's another hold on it, so I'm changing my plan and finishing that ASAP instead.

I feel like this thread hasn't had much to do with CraClu lately, but that's because I'm not WriMoing right now! Sorry guys, I think I'm coming back for JunNo.

I've really gotten into Etsy lately. I haven't started up my shop, but I plan to over the summer. I do, however, have a couple book-themed treasury lists up, and I'm working on a few more. If you have any ideas, I'd love to work with them.

And hey, you guys should add me to your circles or however that works. www.etsy.com/people/alidiafindley?ref=si_pr

I think I'm going to get back into WriMoing, guys! I'm going to participate in JulNo! I hope to see you guys around the boards.

Hey guys, I've got a really stupid idea: I'm joining Camp NaNoWriMo! Yes, on the 14th! Yes, after almost a year without a WriMo! EEK!

But yes, this is me: www.campnanowrimo.org/campers/anicolefindley . I've got 100 words from that drabble I wrote. *weak fist pump*

I'm going to make some tea... caffeinated tea...

I hope everything works out well for you Niccy. I hope to talk to you on Camp Nano as well.

Thanks, Marie!

I just passed 15k, which was my goal for the day! Hopefully, tomorrow I will have more time and can reach 20k.

Woot, I just won Camp NaNo! That was the hardest WriMo I've ever done, so I'm pretty proud!

[marielaurent2221]

Congrats on winning Camp in June Niccy. I wish you good luck on winning Camp in August.

Thanks, Marie! I'm not doing Camp this month, but I hope everyone is having a great time with it.

I hope everything works out well for you today Niccy.
