I just realized something slightly ... problematic. Kyle's story doesn't have a plot and I don't have enough time to write a story and come up with a compelling plot in a month, not for characters like those who have so normal backgrounds. It would take me longer to work that out and so I fail once again. I feel like such a failure and my only consolation is that I'll replace the challenge of writing a novel in a month to just writing 50k in one-shots this month. Right now I don't have the attention span for an entire novel anyway because I have too much going on. I know it's cheating but fuck it, at least I'm writing, that's more important.
