NaNoWriMo
So who else in RF is doing NaNo?
One of the things I've had the most success with in the past is breaking my story up into 30 chapters so I know exactly what I'm writing on any given day. This year, when it came time to move from index cards and random notes to an actual chapter outline, it occurred to me that there are 30-prompt color lists out there.
I'm currently waffling between Battleship Grey and Halloween Orange. Anybody have an opinion?
(It also occurred to me to wonder if the Challenge Color for November is going to be a 30-prompt color, but that doesn't seem to get posted far enough in advance for my needs anyway.)

I love the color-a-day idea, though - that's awesome!

It feels almost like cheating for me, since I need prompts to keep myself on track anyway, but I figure whatever works...

(Eddie Brock!Venom in the early-'90s comics hits every one of my narrative kinks, but also embodies a lot of the most problematic parts of the vigilante ethos; I really want to play with the tension there, see what happens when I try to write him as the protagonist of his own story while not smoothing over the problematic stuff. At the very least, it should be interesting. XD)

(I may well clean it up and post it afterwards, though. The last NaNo I finished was the first draft of Mort/James, after all. - I know I haven't been posting on Mort/James much, but I'm hoping to get back to it after New Year's, if things go well.)
Thanks for asking, though! It's always neat to know someone's interested. :-)

I'm doing Nano (always), in one of my RF worlds... but it's only an RF world because I wrote one backstory fic for it, and have been meaning to write more XD

So I'll probably continue posting in RF over November. Maybe in the same world as the novel, which will be new.
