NOTES: I won! I won I won! This is not the end, of course. In fact, I think I actually stopped mid-paragraph. If I can, I want to keep going at about 1000 words a day until it's done. We'll see how that works out. But damnit, I will finish it!

Also, for anyone familiar with my other stuff: hey look, she's in Prize and being contacted by a mysterious male voice. I WONDER WHO THAT COULD BE.

Chapter Nine

( obligatory kootenays scene )

27th-Nov-2008 10:54 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER EIGHT

NOTES: Aaand with this, I'm finally caught up on posting. Reluctantly, in the case of this chapter. To combat the fact that I suck at action/escape type scenes and could find no way to avoid it being a pile of godawful movie cliches, I just got really drunk one night and cranked out like 3000 words of it. Enjoy the mess that resulted. I can't even bring myself to go back and read it. Although I liked Miles failing at pretending to be a janitor.

I don't approve of how Dr. B calls Gordon by his first name. Secretly, neither does Miles.

Chapter Eight

( cram it, muffin )

27th-Nov-2008 10:49 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER SEVEN

NOTES: The first scene was just an excuse to have a West Wing style walking scene.

Chapter Seven

( President Josephine Eng )

27th-Nov-2008 10:44 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER SIX | part two

NOTES: In order to get this posted, I've decided to stop combing through for things that I have italicized in the draft. This may change the emphasis on some bits and consequently make them make less sense. Fortunately, it doesn't make much sense anyway.

Oh, hey. This bit has the Dream Sequence that Wouldn't End. What a crappy story device. I enjoyed every word of it.

17th-Nov-2008 11:13 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER SIX | part one

NOTES: Watch for a cameo by a certain green-haired custodian, and a certain whippet Woven who has thus far only appeared in RP and one illustration. I swear the interviews weren't only an excuse to do cameos. They were also a really lazy way of getting exposition across!

The band name Oedipus Rex and the Motherfuckers comes from

chaoticmatter.

"Grod" is not a typo. It's Miles' adorable nickname for Gordon.

Chapter Six

( crank the tension )

17th-Nov-2008 03:29 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER FIVE | part four

NOTES: Seriously. I spent like two days of writing just trying to get out of this freaking scene.

( the scene that never ends )

14th-Nov-2008 03:49 am - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER FIVE | part three

NOTES: I apologize for everything after the scene break. I wrote it all after like six drinks at the James Joyce Bistro. Hell, it got me to wordcount, didn't it? And I didn't even do it in the style of James Joyce. That prick.

( essentially made of gold )

13th-Nov-2008 02:56 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER FIVE | part two

NOTE: I'll take it out in the final draft, but Tresa egged me on to have Carla do The Jackal like CJ in West Wing.

Chapter Five

( respectfully )

11th-Nov-2008 02:45 pm - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER FOUR

NOTES: The entire chapter in one go! I wrote almost all of this on the plane. Also, I realize everyone has different rules for Screw Your Neighbour, but this is how Gordon learned it :3

Chapter Four

( joseph goggles )

10th-Nov-2008 01:39 am - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER THREE | part three

NOTES: Not very much done at all today, but to be fair there was only about a total of 4 hours when I was conscious and not slaving for Starbucks. I think I'm still caught up though, thanks to my zooming last week. Here's hoping I can crank out a ton on the plane tomorrow.

End of the chapter btw. Short, but we must be movin' the plot along now.

Chapter Three

( gamera is really neat )

7th-Nov-2008 03:36 am - NaNoWriMo08 - CHAPTER TWO | part four

NOTES: ALL ABOARD THE HMS EXPOSITION THROUGH SHITTY TRANSPARENT DIALOGUE. Started way late today so it's even suckier than usual. Oh well. Gordon got to babble his little head off about Thread.

Deepest Sender thinks "dialogue" is spelled wrong and that makes me irrationally angry. Is it "monolog" too? No. Let me have my extraneous ue. THRUFF.

( it comes in two flavours )
