To all my friends that are doing NaNo this year, what are your NaNo author names that you use on the site? I wanna add you to my buddies list on NaNo.

I think you know mine already...it's Subieko, same as most of my usernames on the internet. Easier for me to keep track of that way. *laughs*

Have you got any plot ideas yet?

Got'cha! Eh, I ask just in case folks change their names or have different user names than I'm usedta look'n at (like...I'm "Mystic Dragon" there, but "mdchan" here...then again, "mdchan" is really "MD-chan", which is short for "Mystic Dragon-chan" ^^;; ).

I have a couple ideas, I just gotta pick one for NaNo...I'll prolly go with the paranormal/mystery novel I was thinking of. I have 1 case already done, and another one in the works. I might not hit 50k with just two cases, but there's a third on my list of ideas that needs expansion, and I want to do at least one locked room murder case, even for a paranormal detective

Oh THAT'S what it stands for! I wondered...haha, I probably should've made that connection at some point, when I was on the nano forums last year...*laughs

Definitely sounds interesting. Sort of reminds me of an RPG parody type story...I dunno about a sad ending or where someone dies by the description. The way you describe it makes it sound like it has a good dose of comedy and parody in it, and those typically don't have nasty endings for the characters.

If that's the route you're going, I'd certainly read it. The Slayers is a parody anime...it's got a serious plot and all, but it generally makes fun of the stereotypes and role-casting of RPGs, and that's my favorite anime and always will be.

Terry Pratchett's books, from the one I picked up, are somewhat like that, but I honestly didn't like the way it was written enough to pick up another one of his books.

Yours sounds amusing, though.
