Not sure if you want this here, but it seemed teh right place. Starting on November 1st, and midnight (where ever you are), National Novel Writing Month begins. For teh uninitiated: NaNoWriMo is an event that thousands of writers and wannabe writers participate in. teh goal is 50,000 words in 30 days. teh prize? You get to cover yourself in glory, and brag that you did it. teh start is only one day away, and NOT having a plan for a story is actually a good thing. So? How many are participating? This will be my third year. And with luck, my first year of completing teh 50K. I already proved to myself that I can do it, in September, when I banged out teh story I linked in my sig. Is it great literature? Oh, heck no! It's a Cowboy Bebop/Fullmetal Alchemist crossover with a Mary Sue that I'm about to kill off in revision. Thing is, I gave myself permission to write badly. Just write! Come join me in teh delicious insanity of NaNo!

Just remember, edit in December I'm almost 23,000 words now, and 7 chapters. It's a fanfic. Cowboy Bebop/Fullmetal Alchemist/Star Trek: TNG (What a combo!) It's so full of cliches! Can we possibly get any more testosterone-laden than to have Spike, Mustang and Fullmetal compete to see who blinks first over a platter of squirming Gagh? *snickers* Does that scene move teh story forward? Probably not. But damn was it a fun plot bunny to play with.
