It's surprisingly hard to format a novel. There are margins that go to the left and margins that go to the right, and the top and the bottom and it's confusing and painful to do. Mentally mostly, but sometimes my fingers get to hurting.
So you write things like this normally, with paragraph breaks. Space in between new things. But no! In a book it has to be indented. Indenting every single paragraph. Every single paragraph ever. That may not seem so hard but this is going to have... well, why don't we just hope it doesn't go past eight hundred twenty eight, okay? Because that's the limit. It may be eight hundred twenty six, though. But still. I can't go past that!
If you don't get it:
I competed (it's not a competition, though) in NaNoWriMo(National Novel Writing Month) and for winning I got a free code for a createspace book. For this to be printed I have to format it. I have to format the margins. I have to format the page numbers and the chapter titles and so on and so forth. It'll be 6x9, so... roughly the size of my paperback Eragon book. This is how I relate things.
based on other books.
Hopefully I'll get through this and not be too bad at it.
AND I GOT A PACKAGE FROM UKRAINE.
yeahhhh.
