Meme Spam!

Last year's NaNoWriMo meme, reborn!



NaNo ID: Poim
NaNo since: 2004
Working title: ...oh oh. I don't have a title yet. Eep?
WIP Genre: Sci-Freaking-Fi
Projected word count: 50,000 for the win!

AT THE START: DO YOU...
Have an outline? Umm... no, actually, come to think of it.
Scene-by-scene? Heck no. I don't have that kind of patience.
Know how it starts? Yep!
Know how it ends? Nope!
Have your climax in order? Er....
Know your main characters yet? Yep!
Plan to draw on your own experiences? Let's see, beings as the entitle premise of my novel is about aliens coming to earth and destroying things... no.
Writing/reading experiences? Heck yeh.

IS YOUR WORK GOING TO BE:
Funny? It'll have its moments. :)
Serious? For the most part.
Sad? Ahh... not too much.
Semi-Autobiographical? Um. No.
Based on another story? N...ot that I've read, though there may be similarities I don't know about.
Influenced by any authors/current publications? Not really, no.

HOW HAVE MUCH YOU PLANNED? HAVE YOU USED:
A paper journal? Just to flesh out a couple of my characters' appearances.
Pens? Yes
Multicolored pens? No.
A computer? Yep.
Index cards? No. >.>
Lists? No
Bulleted lists? ...No...
Plot Charts? Nuh-uh...
Character Charts? Naah.
Character formulas? ...is this NaNo or Math class? What do you take me for, an obsessive organizer? :P
Favorite writing resource: Um... books? My head?

ODDS AND ENDS
A line you would like to use: "Oh dude, it's like an alien or something!" and "Can we keep it?"
A scene you would like to include: One in which my teenage jock-character (Chester) hits on Firale. :3
A concept you would like to explore: How in the world Firale's going to avoid being touched.
A cliche you would like to avoid: Alien Vs. Predator-type premise
A character you would like to use: Dart Zantaa, once a member of the now-defunct Anyanan Force Elites and boyfriend of Katrina Caterwall. (I'm planning on it, actually)

FORWARD THINKING
Do you expect to be able to complete it? Considering my past two NaNovels still lie dormant and unfinished in my computer's memory.... no.
Do you intend to complete it? Sadly, I don't have high hopes.
Would you ever try to publish it? I really, really doubt it.
What do you expect to get out of this month of frantic writing? The fun that I get out of every NaNoWriMo, Pinky. The fun that I get while writing aliens that are trying to take over the WORLD!

Someone tell me why my arm is sore, please. I can't think of a single thing that I did yesterday/last night to make it such a nuisance. (A tolerable nuisance, but irritating nonetheless)

PS: zomg! I still need a NaNoWriMo '06 icon! Eep! Better get to doodlin'! :3

memes, nanowrimo
