NaNoWriMo Ideas Needed!
Oct. 5th, 2005 08:45 pmSo I have signed up again, and am quite excited!
So far I have 2 drawbacks
1. When the brother gave me the Windows XP cd to reinstall, he didn't give me an Office one too, and now he's off to Canada (more on this later). I may end up writing this on notepad. Or maybe editplus...
2. NFI what to write about. I did get an inkling of an idea many months ago, when I discovered the worthless word for the day site - http://home.mn.rr.com/wwftd/ - namely, to use as many of those words as possible. Of course this being wrimo I should really be using lots of tiny words where a big one would do, but still. Or bump the count up by having whoever uses the big words have to explain what they mean every time. Hmm...
ANYWAY. That plan may still hold, but I still need something to write *about*. So, I thinks to myself, I have a very creative bunch ofweirdos lovely people on my FList, why not ask them? A 'who's line is it anyway' sort of improv novel.
Hey, it could work!
Your mission (if you chose to accept it) is to fire words, phrases or whatever the hell you like at me and I will hopefully somehow manage to turn them into something like a story. Note this will not be a masterpiece of deep thinking. It will, like last year, be ridiculous, badly-written, silly froth, cos that's easy and fun to write ;) Maybe this time I'll even get to the end.
At least it'll *probably* be that, who knows? Tis up to you!
