Hi, I'm Ashley aka WhimsicalSnowflake, and I'm a little tardy to the introduce-yourself party because I've been trying to hard to write that introducing myself just slipped my mind!

I'm currently floating around 35k and this is my slowest NaNo ever - EVER - in my three-now-four years of NaNoing because of the school commitments I've had. The school play, which I was producing, went on through the first two weeks and the third week, when I thought I'd be able to catch up, one of the other clubs I'm in kicked into high-gear and knocked me back in the dust again. AT THE SAME TIME, all my teachers decided to give gigantic tests. Same week. And that week's over now, and now it's this week, and I have been a furious writing machine trying to catch up. XD

So this year I'm writing a story called Unforgettable about a girl who can erase things from people's minds. My story has been slightly taken over by my new favorite formerly-supporting-but-now-practically-a-protagonist character, Rosie, and hopefully I'll be able to finish during the long Thanksgiving weekend.

Sorry for being a recluse and not going to the writing events - like I said, it's been really crazy and I've barely had a spare second to breathe this whole month. Assuming all goes well, I'll be able to catch up pretty quickly (I'm within 3k of the target word count, which I think is kind of impressive considering I was about 9k behind last Friday) and maybe next year I'll be better about showing up!

Best of luck to all and happy almost-Thanksgiving!
