Things To Do before 12:01 nov 1st:

[cl0ckw0rkf0x]

-Study for french test tomorrow
-Finish lab report due on wednesday
-Get at least a rough draft of the essay due on nov 21st written, so it doesn't interfere too much with writing
-Type out my changes to chapter seven so I can send chapter 18 to people.
-Write a breif summary of most scenes planned so far in nanowrimo story.

Now, those are in order of importance. I expect they will be done in reverse order, as usual. Nothing like homework to be done to get me working on writing.

I'm getting revved up for Nano, though. The story is coming together in my mind. Canada votes in the NDP and the NDP rip up NAFTA. The USA is screwed for natural resources and invades. Story revolves around a Mother and her children (12 and 17) and her increasing involvement in the resistance. I thought of putting a dog in the story, but I realized if I put a dog in, it would just die.

oh, I meant buddy on the nanowrimo website. do you have a username there? Mine is lindenfoxcub.

I live in winnipeg, manitoba, so on the prairies, but a couple of hours from the canadian shield.

Also, since you seem to be interested in sci fi, have you ever got into any critiquing groups? There's a rather good one online that I'm on, that's specific to sci-fi, fantasy and horror. It's about $50-$60 a year, which is really good for what you get out of it, when you consider some workshops cost hundreds for a couple of days of excercises. let me know if you're interested; not sure how serious you are about writing; these guys are fairly serious, and they'll give you honest opinions about your work.

Oh, cool. I used to know someone who lived in Winnipeg. I lost contact with him years ago, though.

I don't know if that group would be right for me at the present time. I'm trying to get back into writing though, so maybe at some point. :-)
