Just to set some goals...

This Month

Double Trouble: I have to try to get NaNoWriMo completed, which I'm pretty sure I'll be able to do. At the very least, I should be able to crack the 50,000 words goal - which I should be able to do by Chapter 28. I would like to try to get all 30 chapters completed, though.

December

The New Boy In Town: Initially, I had planned to ( Read more... )

I guess I was referring to novella-length stories. Yeah, I'll maybe expand of the Family or Foe archive. Say, wouldn't it better just to focus on the second generation? Two of the families you're proposing that I write about are minor to began with, so I should probably keep it with 2015 or earlier. I'm wondering if I should include Bruce and Chester Nogura at the O'Malley gathering - and Spike and Whitey are in love. The two technically aren't related, even though they share a half-brother.

okay so that works out to. It would be nice to see Rachel and Ronny as adults along with Rex, Ron, Rita and Rose. just for the record that works as long as the tannen family can take place in 2046 with Stephanie Tannen as the main character.

Rachel and Ronny on 19 in 2006 (same age as Haven), so that could wrk out.

Maybe I could do two for the Tannen story - and the Stephanie one would take place in the Haven Universe. I'll maybe put that one in Haven Universe Chronicles.

I don't mind doing a second Tannen story. I want to keep Family or Foe focused on stories in the Trilogy Universe - but I could do the one for Stephanie Tannen in Haven Universe Chronicles (and she's related to Doc, as well).

I might do stories about the third generation in the Trilogy Universe, but probably not anytime soon. I have a backlog of stories I need to catch up with.

I'll be glad when January comes. I can just concentrate on my WIP stories that month.

BTW, I have an idea for a January challenge - no, I'm not going to post it to the community until January first. Here's what I was thinking of, though. Maybe write a story about Marty meeting the same African-American family in the normal timeline, that occupied the McFly home in 1985A.

I guess you learned fast right.

Yeah, I didn't mean to get you in trouble with the community. Maybe we both could propose a challenge for January. You should try to switch gears a little bit. I don't think anyone else is really inerested in writing about the bullies, especially the minors.

BTW, did you read my latest chapters for Double Trouble. I finally came up with names for the three members of Biff's gang.

Oh, yeah, the third member of Needles gang - the one played by Christopher Wynne - is Owen Oxford (Ox). His ancestor in Buford's gand in Ollie Oxford. I have to think of which of the other two would be Rufus Unger.

What about Ryan 'Match' Unger?

Oh, sorry, no Ungers in Biff's gang. I already named all of Biff's gang menbers the other day.

Skinhead = Joey Skinner
3D = Derrick Daniel Drake
Match = Mitch Mattis

For Needles gang:

Rex = Ray Unger
Hammer = John Hamar Skinner
Ox = Owen Oxford

I see your point. Russ couldn't have a child in time but why did you make Rock the father of Russ surely he could have been the eldest of Russ Unger's 3 siblings.

The Tannen family story focuses on the POV of Bill Tannen in 2016 of the Trilogy Universe. He's dating Melody Brown, who is the interdimensional counterpart of Jamie Brown (especially post-crisis) of the Haven Univese.

The O'Malley gather will probably focus on the POV of Nicole O'Malley.

For the Ungers, I'll have to think of that one. Maybe that one could take place in 2006, after the 2006 portion of The Prized Time Capsule. Rose Unger's POV again.

that can work. and maybe you can come up with something else for Stephanie Tannen in the Haven universe.

If Rolf Unger was 18 in 1903, he would've been 43 by the time by the time Russ was born. Rock was 19 in 1925, while Russ was 18 in 1946 - so that'd make Rock 20 by the time Russ was born.

When, when I first came up with Russ, he was intended to be the father of Ray (and grandfather of Rafe "Data" Unger). If Rock was the member of the gang that bullied Marty's grandfather, Arthur - I figured it'd work out best to have Rock be Russ' father.
