So I signed up for National Novel Writing Month, which will be starting November 1st. I'm pretty sure its going to kick my ass Chloe style, but I'm actually really excited for it and the challenge.
I have this Chlollie plot that will not be denied. It's determined to be written whether I want to or not and honestly, I'm afraid of what it will do to me if I decide not to write it. So I think that's what I'm going to do, I have the basic outline done and a lot of the earlier stuff planned out.
I am curious though, do I have any DC comic book fans on my f-list? Ones that would be able to help me out with some research on Darkseid and Granny Goodness. Or anyone that could point me in the direction of a good website to help? I've been using Wikipedia, but that's only able to get me so far and I was hoping that maybe someone could help. I'll even bribe you with something of your liking if you can help me out.
Also anybody else on f-list doing NaNoWriMo this year?

Date: 2010-10-23 12:07 am (UTC)I have never read the comics so I can't really help much but I know that DC has it's own wiki, which you can find here. That's what I usually use, and its list is pretty extensive.

Thank you so much for the link. I'll defenitely be checking that out.

no subject
Date: 2010-10-23 05:45 am (UTC)Yeah, I like that about NaNo. It takes some of the pressure off. Mine probably will get posted, but with proper warnings that it may never get finished and that it may in fact be horrible in place. XD

Date: 2010-10-23 08:35 pm (UTC)wastework the rest of the day and get the research paper done.NaNo fanfiction? That's a good idea. I'd do that, but I really need to start playing with my OCs. If only to get them some personality. They're kinda flat at the moment...
You could always beg for a beta once you want to start posting your NaNo work. I'm sure someone would be willing to look over your work... *pointed look*
no subject
Date: 2010-10-23 09:53 pm (UTC)LOL, I'm sure they'll get unflat in no time. And if they don't, then threaten them. That's what I do with mine. It doens't always work, but it does make me feel better. XD
I was actually really hoping to do an orignal one, cuz its been too long since I've attempted that. BUT I completely failed at creating an idea for one to do. And NaNo scares me enough as it is without going in with a game plan. I'm an outliner, I can't do it without one.
LOL, does that pointed look mean I have a volunteer? Because I might just do that begging thing. I usually am the beta, compared to having one, but the monstrosity that I'm cooking up could probably use one. XD
no subject
Date: 2010-10-24 01:14 am (UTC)I like to torture my characters and see how they react. It's good for learning their true personalities. LOL!
I've got a vague outline for this, mostly just characters and a setting and a hope that it'll develop into something more. It's unnerving, though, because I like outlines too. I need them.
Yes! It's time I return the favor. :D
no subject
Date: 2010-10-24 04:57 am (UTC)LOL, that's a good idea there. Torturing would defenitely help with learning about their personalities. I will have to remember that. Of course, most things I write end up terribly angsty, so most of them would probably beg me not to torture them anymore than I do...
My outline's kind of vague itself. I'm hoping to have it put more together by November. But at least that's something, a vague outline is better than no outline. That's what I'm telling myself anyways.
Thank you. You might regret it later, but I'll probably be taking you up on the offer if you aren't too busy. But really, I've told you before all I need to convince me to beta is a sneak peek of the chapter. I'm easy like that. XD

And OMG your icon! Its so pretty!
no subject
Date: 2010-10-23 05:40 am (UTC)Really? Awesome. I found my notes I thought were lost forever that I needed. They were character details that I couldn't remember.
IKR? I felt like it needed to be snagged. I almost can't handle the pretty :) Almost.
no subject
Date: 2010-10-23 05:48 am (UTC)Yeah, can't say how far I'm getting. Especially with other people distracting me...but I'm working on it. I have tiny bits written.
Defenitely needed to be snagged. And I bet you couldn't handle the pretty if they were shirtless....Samn, now I need to go find an icon like that.
no subject
Date: 2010-10-23 05:56 am (UTC)SKIRTS! I see no one distracting. No one that isn't shirtless and on your tv screen. :D
