Weekly Writing Prompt — 10/27/10 Edition

Sorry this is late, but it was a late night last night! What a successful Word Jazz:  Fall Into Story! Event. (okay, I’ve reached my quota of exclamation marks today). Check out the SnoValley Writes! Web site to see how to order our second volume of Views, Voices and Verses:  Fall Into Story! It’s absolutely gorgeous and looks so amazing.
 
First off I would like to have RSVP from those who are attending our NaNo-Ween party with an updated list on who is bringing what (tables, chairs, etc.) If you somehow missed that memo, and are interested in contributing, please let me know. The party — the official NaNoWriMo Kick Off for our region (Snoqualmie Valley) — is at 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Saturday at The LaLande-Dunn-Steele Building (aka the Old DOL building) @ 1535 Bendigo Boulevard North (202) (it’s just east of the North Bend Animal Clinic.) Everyone is encouraged to dress up as their favorite dead author. Prize for best costume. There will be special guests and lots of goodies to start you off right on your noveling adventure. Not only that, it’s a great opportunity to network with other writers. You are not alone! We’ll all help each other get to 50k words in 30 days!

Here’s a little NaNo character development to help you get inside (you choose which) protagonist’s or antagonist’s mind….
 
S/he is broken down on a deserted road (a flat tire, an overheated radiator, you choose)…what do they do? do they panic? do they sit and wait? what? And what happens when their plans just don’t necessarily go as planned?

And now your moment of Writing Zen:
 
“And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?”

Falling, like dew upon a thought, produces
That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.” ~ Lord Byron

  1. Yes! You and I went the same route with this one. No matter what hppeans in terms of my story or word count, in the end I’ll be writing and that’s a good thing. Hope you are enjoying NaNo as much as I am! :>
