Panic!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the deal. I've spent every spare moment (almost, okay not even, but I've tried) casting about for a plot for NANOWRIMO which started two hours and twenty minutes ago and guess what? NO PLOT!!!! I am desperate here, people. I have less than thirty days to write 50,000 hopefully coherent words and I have NOTHING. My damn muse has gone on ( Read more... )

Sweetie, I'd send you my muse but I think she's comatose and barely clinging to life.

Ok, plots? Hmmm... how about a carry on from the longish piece you sent me about Peter and Garret, or a prequel- dealing with them getting together and Peter then moving to the West Coast?

Just a thought. I'm sending good muse vibes your way!

Just can't get enough of my baby boy there. I'd just love to debauch that youngn'.

Actually, after my whine fest last night inspiration hit me about another pairing. One I haven't tried before but my buddy GoddessOfSnark has, so I asked if I could borrow it and I've gotten started. I would have done the P/G thing but I'd already gotten several small pieces written down so I don't know if I can milk more out of it.

Busy, busy, busy, write, write, write.

Okay here's a few first lines. Take one and just start writing off of it and see what happens. Not the muse genuis...but best I could do on short notice :)

It was part of a story, a tale. It was beautiful and sad. I remember how it all began.

or

"And rain is God crying. I don't believe it. It's a load of bs and you know it." Andy slammed out the door, leaving Beth crying behind him.

or

She stared at the house for a moment. It was a dream...but also a nightmare. After years she was finally back here.

Don't know if it'll help you any. I'm sending good vibes your way. I could give you an idea I once had...I never did anything with it because it was much more an 'adult' story and I just don't write em well. I'm stuck in children's writing. At least I didn't think I could write it. But I can give you the basic outline. I think you could do a good job with it. Email me.

But I think I'll work in this: 'She stared at the house for a moment. It was a dream...but also a nightmare. After years she was finally back here.'

It will be in a slightly different form though.
Thank you for the vibes. Now I have to go do the housework thing so folks will leave me alone later.
