Oh do I feel you, this is the reason I don't tag SuNoFest in my development. I have hit a pause in my vn. I'm blanking on things at the moment... I want something miraculous to happen where I'm motivated to do everything for this festival but it ain't not happening because I'm turning up sick here and there in these past days due to drastic changes in weather over here...
Don't give up hope! I once came back from a huge deficit during NaNoWriMo... wrote 17,000 words in a day. Miracles can happen, they just require effort to make them happen!
Which I guess no longer makes the miracles, but hey, you get the point.
Things I've Written:
Sakura (Novel, Self Published, 80,000+ words)
City and Girl (Novel, First Draft, 70,000+ words)

A layabout writer and programmer with lots of problems and even more ideas. Hyped for Persona 5.

It was technically over the course of twenty hours... with a couple breaks for food in the middle. I started at 10:00 AM and ended at 7:00 AM. I don't recommend it, but it happened, and it sort of worked (I was aiming for twenty... I don't think that's humanly possible.) At the very least, it got me through a boring patch of the novel.

SuNoFes was a lot of fun! Congratulations everyone who finished :)

I'm throwing a SuNoFes survivors party for players, devs, and anyone who'd like to come! It's at http://plug.dj/sunofes
(yes it's a virtual party - you do need a plug.dj account, but it's worth it for the dancing avatars)
on Saturday (23rd August 2015) at 10am EST which is 3pm BST (UK time) for 4 hours.

At 2pm EST Bluebird Plays ‏@bluebirdplays is streaming all #SuNoFes Entries on http://twitch.tv/bluebirdplays

And because of timezones we will probably have an afterparty once the twitch stream ends.
current project - Departure Lounge
