Inspiration for NaNoWriMo 2016
Just scrolling about through social media, I came across this post. I think it might have been instagram? spookymileskane has since deactivated but if anyone knows if they are still on tumblr / social medias, please let me know so I can thank them!
I remember reading this and immediately feeling inspired. At that point in my life, I had already tried NaNoWriMo once before in my life and while I did not win, I had fun, and I knew I wanted to do more. I told myself that I would plan as much as I could during the summer before November 2016.
And I won NaNoWriMo 2016, thanks to my planning and support from friends and family! This blog is now going to be collecting (hence collection) of things about my characters and the plot of this stories as well as the journey of maybe publishing it.
My goal is for at least one person to love this story, if it happens that I end up with the opportunity to publish it, then that’s wonderful. Just so you know “publishing” is not my end goal, I just love writing and I love these characters.
And so, let this blog begin! I will retype the image here, for those who are visually impaired or to copy the text.
au where everybody is born with a very unique tattoo on their ankle, nobody else in the world has that tattoo.
every time you fall in love easily having their bodies completely covered in tattoos.
aromantics who only have their own ankle tattoo on their body.
people who have love affairs to cover up the other secret tattoo from their spouse/partner.
a new tattoo appearing on a celebrity’s body in new photos and a very lucky fan (who had recently met that celebrity) realizing that it’s their tattoo.
elderly ladies sitting around tables in nursing homes telling the story behind each of their tattoos.
kindergartners who giggle as they look at their own ankle tattoos together and dream about the future tattoos they’ll have when they’re all grown up.
people trying their best to deface tattoos of ex-lovers who broke their hearts, but they can never go away.
just think about this, guys.
