Good morning, NaNoMoJo!

It's Day 3, so we should be crossing the 5,000-word mark today. It's not too late to catch up, and if you can get ahead, do it! 5k is 10% of the goal, by the way. That's right: we're 10% done already. That's pretty nice ( Read more... )

Maddie Smith - prophetic do-gooder teacher
Mr. Hill - non-existent town avatar
Nira Breeson - grim alcoholic lawyer

Um um... Kill Maddie, Kiss Mr. Hill, Marry Nira? (weird...)

I don't know if I can do this one, since I'm not writing a traditional novel (AGAIN), just some stories...

I'll just go with the first one I started:

1. Nameless female protagonist - Tomboy, late teens.
2. Antony - Emo goth, friend.
3. Nick - Some random kid.

As for the 2nd part of the game... damn. Kiss Antony, Kill Nick, Marry Nameless Protagonist? This is a dumb game. XD

Mine's a space western ala Firefly except with gay romance added in. First three characters to appear are:

'Cookie' (jack of all trades, ship cook, occasional diplomatic liason) - I love him but I have to pick him for kill. Can I just leave him stranded on some border moon in hopes someone will pick him up eventually instead?

Torin (captain, mercenary and space pirate) - Kiss.

Rain (overly charming, ridiculously optimistic, obscenely good-looking pilot) - Marry.

Unnamed narrator - 30-something amateur musician (also Slalix, the 4th character to appear)
Carter - narrator's reckless bandmate
Montgomery "Monty" Aldersen - role-playing college student (also Vex, the 5th character to appear)

If alter-egos can be included, it'd be kiss Slalix and marry Vex. Or maybe the other way around, since one would be just as weird as the other. But either way, Carter gets killed. That idiot.

Oh, and finished last night just a couple hundred words shy of 5,000. Hopefully tonight's efforts will lift me firmly into the 6,000-7,000 range.
