What a Novel Idea!

Do we know what we're doing? Heck no! But the Tumblrs on this site have had a crazy notion to write a novel at some point, and this is our chance. NaNoWriMo is a self-motivated race to complete a 50,000 word novel between November 1st and 30th. Let the crazy begin!


word count up to 2208

Cranked out roughly 1300 words tonite. Plot lines are all over the place though there is a semblance of a continuation thread. Not sure how its working for everyone else, but I find myself writing “bios” of characters and not a lot of what I would call action. It’s interesting as hell for me but I think that’s where the thread of any sort of plot suffers.

A cool little writing device I have already discovered: Take an existing character and have that character interact with a brand new character that you create.

Today started in a World of Warcraft type of virtual reality gaming environment and somehow I ended up in Santa Cruz, California. Pretty cool.

That’s all for now.
