I went home this weekend! It was so much fun!

We went out on Saturday afternoon to watch Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors, which was hilarious, and then we had dinner out at Frankie & Benny's, and then from there to see Oh! What A Lovely War, Joan Littlewood's masterpiece. I wanted to see Oh! What A Lovely War because we

Nano FTW. I might give it a go but it's not like I have a plot or anything at the moment, unless I use the "waking up dead" idea that was started last year. help?

*hugs you* I wasn't going to bother until that idea hit me. (Actually, it's an idea from last year, that I wrote half a page of description for and then forgot about. *shrug*)

I loved the 'waking up dead' concept! You should have a go, even if you don't do it seriously. I mean, what have you got to lost if you don't think of it as something you HAVE GOT TO DO OMG ...? *hugs*

I have several ideas for books going round in my head at the moment:

1. An entirely fictional story... might be fun just to let myself go and do something really trippy and see where I end up with it.

2. A fictional story of a guy at school, based partly upon my own experiences and those people that I know.

3. An entirely factual account of Bolton School (Boys), with a view to be published in 2012.

The third option sounds like a lot of research, which I really can't be bothered starting at the moment. The first sounds a bit like something I might be tempted to do were I able to think along those lines and not having the main character traipse off to the library to research what the strange creature was (as infamously happened in one of my Yr 7 English essays). I think I'll go with the second idea for now and see how far we get with it! LOL :D

You do?! And why did you not tell me this before? O.o

Yeah, option 3 does sound like a lot of research and hard work. Makes me think of Hogwarts: A History, which is quite amusing. But if you did one for the Boys' Div, you should really do one for the Girls', too. :P Equality and all that jazz ...

... Does this mean you're going to do NaNo with me? :P You shooooouuuuld! It's fun, I promise! I've never been able to get a handle on realism and stuff - I couldn't write about reality if I tried. (And I have tried. It just comes off as ... wrong. I don't like the present, it's too mysogynistic. I do have aspirations to one day do an (possibly alternate-universe) yearly 1900s story, just because the post-WW1/1920s-30s fascinates me ...

ANYWAY, rambling. *goes back to trying to find a plot*
