Okay, okay I sware this is the last blog spot today! :) But I had a lot of writtting news banked up and I ddin't want to make one HUGE post.
Heres the plot: The story is about a scribe, a college professor and a smart sailor. It takes place in a bakery in a large city. The story ends with an inheritance. A powerful magical weapon plays an important role.
---
Clearly there is NO WAY I could end a story with somebody receiving an inheritance, so I'll have to alter this idea a bit. Also rather then a backery, I came up with this story set on a boat.
Anyway, I also generated the bios for the sailer, the collage professor and the main character (and some locations in the story). But I haven't touched the scribe just yet.
I'm in the process of writting all my ideas down into Buzzword so I don't loose them/inspiration for this story. So see ya!
On a side note: I joined Twitter, finally, and I really enjoy it so I doubt you'll want to follow me! ;)

Tarnie in the Library
Well, I just randomly started writting the other day (look at the post before this for more details) and came up with a whole new story idea. Here is a snip of it for you readers:
Tarnie found herself where she had found herself at that time, three o'clock, for the last three days, at 27 Ash Groove three streets away from where she wanted to be. Where she truly wanted to be was at her home with her brown and white gerbil in his wired in play aquitment where she could what him for hours and never get bored.
The reason why Tarnie had found herself at that very house for five hours of her day right after school finished was this, her mother was a budding interior designer. And rather then taking sensible hours that didn't make her have to work over dinner she had decided to spend every waking hour at the house which she liked to call 'just the break I needed.' By break clearly not meaning a rest, or as the Collens New English Dictionary put it; 'to stop for a rest.' Which in the 1997 edition was the eighth meaning for the word break.
----
I really think this is some of the best writting I ahve done... in a while at least. It gets worse as I go along, so thats why you don't get to read everything that I have written.

Plently to update about!
I'm going to update a few times to day, first with some words I wrote on Dollie Diner.net:
Writting up date: I've put my NaNo on the shelf, maybe one day I will be brave enough to look back on it and possibly edit it and possibly let people read it (very doubtful) but right now I've started on a new story on Buzzword which is going along swimmingly. I'm yet to lose any ounce of the inspiration for it that I had at the beginning and I'm dying just to get back to it.
It's a differant style of writting to my normal which I am trying to keep up because it is better then my usual.
Also, heres so more writing on DOllie Diner.net about my NaNo result (Sorry to keep any reads in the dark for so long):
Anyway, for those of you who didn't notice (which shows how great a poster I was outside of November) I was away this November, and the better half of October, writing my NaNo which I am super proud to say reached 50k and I also ended my story, though I did stay up till 11:40 or something. So everything worked out really.

In the midsts of interNaNo hype...
Some of the head lines:
I PICKED my novel plot!
My Birthday's near!
New promting blog!
~-~-~-~-
Okay, so my birthday on the 12th of this month is coming up fast, even though I've already got a pretty good percentage of my gifts. ^_^ I've gotten two gifts so far out of the 6 I will receive. Pretty good 'eh?
~-~-~-~-
Finally, around a month before NaNo my plot is picked! I've desided on the 3rd one because it just seems so NaNoish and fun to write. I've got my word file all ready and I've started scratching down ideas and writing up a ruff outline! Things are chuffing along quite nicely.
~-~-~-~-
And last but not least my very own writing propt blog. Its not mad yet, but when it is I will add a post to this blog saying so and giving you a link. I know theres a lot of writing promt blogs out there, but mine will work like this. You are givien an object in your story and a list of questions and you must answer them by drawing a sketch. Doesn't have to be a good drawing, and more importantly you won't have to show anybody, but the fact is you have a perfect description of an important/unimportant/now to be come an imporant object which should help you with your story/writers block.
Heres a sample:
A lamp shade! Don't forget to choose this answers by what the owner would have/like
What colour.:
What is the pattern.:
Where is it in the room.:
Is it well taken care of.:
Theres not always the same questions for them. And it can be any kind of item. Also this new blog will have a muse jump start word war where I set you a challenge or time and worlds.

So I havn't yet
Yes, read down and you'll see I was planing to orangize my ideas, but that never happened because I never worked out how I should do it.
So right now, I'm doing research for plot 2. Heres the only web sites I've found:
http://www.qualityinfo.org/olmisj/ArticleReader?itemid=00005844 I wanted some information about tools that would have been used, because thats my biggest prob right now because they didn't teach me about tools in my subject. But I can't find any sites with that kind of stuff on it. I guess I'll just have to ask on the NaNo forums and see if they can help me.

Getting organized!
Okay, you wanna here the long story or the short one? If you wanna here the long one read on, it's you don't then find some blond text and read on from there.
So basicly (okay not basicly) I found a pixel doll site link and had a look at it, it have a link to an old forum and used to go on that I desided to take another look at. I found a contest on there that was closed so I went to vote and found a doll that said it's base was from some where I don't remember having that base. So I had a look at that site and found the base, ate the egg from my humbile pie while finding the link to Gaia. (Just some popular in the pixel world socilizing site) So I joined up to Gaia and had to go to my email to activate my account, so I logged into my email and found a NaNo email, so I had a look at it and then went to the NaNo site, found out they had an after NaNo forum which I posted on a bit and then got inspired to finally deside which plot I should do for NaNo. So I am going to get organized!
[b]Okay, I've finished the long story, heres the short one:[/b]

There, so what I am going to do I write down stuff on index cards and lay they all out will mum is out and see if that helps anything. I'll keep you posted team!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In other news, I 'signed up' to Scrip Frenzy (used my NaNo account) and relearnt how to write a scrip. I'm a bit late to do that now though. By like two months. In the imortal words of Max Well Smart, "Missed it by that much."
See ya later.
