November was a pretty good month in 2020 standards. I did some fun stuff and had a successful NaNoWriMo!
What I Did
1.) At the time of writing this post (which is last minute due to holiday XD) Iām at 47,000 words in NaNoWriMo for In Darkest Starlight! š
2.) I sent off my college application and am waiting to hear back. Iāve also been doing some game nights at a friendās nice which is has been fun. I played Yahtzee for the first time and got a Yahtzee! I also watched some programs from my library about Native American Heritage month and learned some really fascinating facts about the Cherokee here in Georgia.
I had a good Thanksgiving with family and lots of yummy food. ^ ^
3.) I finished readingĀ TimescapeĀ by Robert Liparulo and Iāve started Charlie and Glass Elevator by Roald Dahl andĀ The House of HadesĀ by Rick Riordan!
4.) Since this clay figure has been received I can show you one of my clay sculptures. This is Seteth from Fire Emblem: Three Houses!
The Geeky Department
1.) Iāve been watching the Mandalorian and really enjoying it! I love that the Clone Wars characters are being incorporated!
2.) Speaking of the Clone Wars Iām finally getting to watching the Lost Episodes and the Final Season and man, stuff is getting real. XD So many emotions!
3.) I also got Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity! The gameplay is really fun, and I like how itās filling in a big gap in the story from Breath of the Wild!
4.) Iām going strong with Animal Crossing: New Horizons and I loved all of the late fall recipes so much! The Mushroom and Maple Leaf furniture are so cute!
What Iām Going to Do
1.) Iāve reached the end of my story and Iām going back and adding some little backstory parts, so I may finish those in December then in the New Year work on the much-needed rewrite. XD
2.) Iām going to wait on my college application, visit my good friend, and enjoy the holidays with my family. Iām hoping to see some fun Christmas lights. <3
3.) Iām going to finish the two books I mentioned before and Iād like to start Whirlwind byĀ Robert Liparulo.
4.) I may be sculpting another figure for a friendās birthday. Iām debating. XD

That clay sculpture is adorable! I’ve been loving the Mandalorian and Animal Crossing too. I need to play more though.
Congrats on so many words!
Oooooo! Now I want to see your island. XD Do you have a Dream Code?
I’m so glad you had a wonderful November!
My little brother wants Age of Calamity SO bad. XD I’ve yet to beat Breath of the Wild though. >.>
Your clay figure looks amazing!!! ^_^ You are so talented!
Both games are so good! Have you played any other Legend of Zelda games?
Aw thank you!
I’ve played and beaten Twilight Princess and I’m currently playing Skyward Sword. I tried playing Majora’s Mask and Ocarina of Time but could never really get into them. We have Windwaker but I haven’t played that one yet.
What Legend of Zelda game is your favourite?
Twilight Princess! How about you?
Oooh! I played Twilight Princess when I was 13 so it’s been a while, but it’s kept 1st place on my favourites list. Breath of the Wild and Skyward Sword tie for second though. š
I’m so glad you had a lovely Thanksgiving! And EEEE!!! You’re so close to the NaNo finish line! AAAAHHHH!!! *sends motivational cookies* Almost there!
I do hope you have a wonderful rest of November and FANTASTIC December! <3
Haha thank you! I hope you have a wonderful Holiday season too!
