I am SO excited for this!! An outline is such a good milestone to hit. And I can wait to meet the rest of the characters

Ok! So I’ve been meaning to do one of these things and I haven’t, but I’m also going to add some blog updates here too!

WIP Progress

Outline is done!! There are still some plot holes that need to be filled out, but it’s there!

I am almost finished with all of the characters and intros for all of them are coming soon! (Also I am spending way too much time creating moodboards for all of them, but it’s worth it and they look awesome)

I literally have no clue what my setting is, I want it to be Europe, but then I have to do research and I don’t want to do that but I also don’t want to create a whole new world. So I’m gonna make a warped version of Europe! Which I’m not excited for but it needs to happen.

I have decided to use this WIP as my novel for Camp NaNoWriMo!! Which I have never done before, and I don’t know much about it. But I’m trying it anyway! (Also, if anyone does Nano, tell me, I’d love to be buddies on it!)

I have created a notebook for this WIP and I am loving it. Why I never used a notebook to plan and jot ideas down is beyond me. Cause it’s amazing! And I’m a typer and I love my computer but this is wonderful and I’m glad I tried it!

Thanks!)

My Blog & I Updates!

62 followers???!!!?!!!?! Where did you all come from?? And why?? I love each and every one of you and I’m glad you’re here! Obviously I’m doing something right if so many of you are hanging around

I have also created a blog masterpost, which will be updated constantly and if you’re on mobile, it’s the easy way to find everything.

I also have asks and tag games that I need to catch up on, I haven’t forgot about them, I just have a lot going on. I’m going to school physically now and I can’t be on Tumblr constantly. No phones out at school and I came home and looked at my phone it was blowing up during school with notifications. I love all of you, but I’m kinda drowning in school at the moment. But it’s Friday! So, I’ll have more time!

Also, I say “I love you” a lot. I am aroace, but I’m still very open with that phrase and I always mean it in a platonic, you mean a lot to me, and I would punch anyone who hurt you, way. I’m just mentioning that I case anyone gets confused when I say it.

Character Question 34

What is their password? (Or the pattern they use to choose passwords)

Zach: he has named every single one of his stuffed animals. They are his passwords. If it needs a number and it's a plush from a birthday, he uses that number. (If that makes sense)

Freddie: he uses science facts. He'll abbreviate it or he'll use the first letters. Sometimes he uses obscure scientists that he admires!

Bella: you know the passwords Google suggests? She uses those. But she memorizes them. None of them are saved on any computer - she's too worried about hackers since she's made a few online enemies in her time. No one has ever kept her out of somewhere she wants to be, especially if it's hurting society.
