This is a good time for this thread, because NaNoWriMo begins tomorrow. I'm in; is anybody else?
Here's my NaNo page. We can be writer buddies.
I had no idea about that, but I have a great novel idea sitting around in my head I had invested a lot of time in research, notes, and starting to draft out one. Someone broke in my home and took all my work along with my laptop and important documents. It killed me, but I am born again.

I'm not a writer, but I have long had plans to write a sequel to the New Testament. I'm thinking of calling it, 'Jesus II: This Time, It's Personal'.
I've written some music, but I don't think that counts, here.

Well, I do not write anymore, but I do text (like this). Most of my writing is dedicated to foruming and educational sorts of things. These could be assignments, projects, labs, self-driven findings, that sort of stuff.
However, because I am into game development as a future occupation, I restarted my old creative hobbies, and that involves designing graphics, plot writing, character design, animations, etc.
Graphics and other models whether they be 2D or 3D are way difficult to initiate on a computer, so I draw them first... on... a computer. Yep, I use a digital pen (mouse) like a tablet to draw straight onto the screen, and the best part about having that interface readied are the editing options you do not get from the classic pen or pencil on paper... like resizing or rotating what was just drawn.
So, yes, in terms of writing, I am writing the plot and defining the characters used in the game that I am developing.

Just remember, your not a real man till you code in assembler XD
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I see myself more as a painter with words. Everyone else sees me as something that has no word, at least printable. I've written short screenplays, what used to be be called single-reelers, initially for a national competition but later as a writing challenge. If I clear my head and work up some enthusiasm, I set myself to work on the two (count 'em) full length novels I'm attempting to write simultaneously. Then there are my feature screenplay projects which may see their own dawn.

Low-level languages are so rare nowadays, but I do know some C, does that meet your expectations, senpai?

I know some Lisp too, but I am pretty sure it is a high-level language because of its memory management. It does have garbage collection unlike C.

Love nano but I have to skip it this year. I started a bunch of blogs that I have to get off the ground. Gonna have my own bloggo, or nablog, or something - write one post a day for November to get in the habit.
Nano's fun, but blogs are in time monetizable.
