http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/node/269 Welcome to the Evansville forum! eng http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/node/3012523 <p>Wow, I'm the first one to post here in this region? I guess I'm the most zealous out of all the Evansvillians, hehe. All the same, I figured I'd post and figure out who else was here. By all means, come in, introduce yourself ((even if you've been doing this for years, as the newbies won't know who you are, hehe)), and if you already have your novel planned, feel free to share it with us! :)</p> <p>As for me, my name is Melissa, I'm 24, and I've lived in Evansville since 2003. I managed to win NaNo last year, but what I ended up with didn't quite resemble a novel, so I'll have to rewrite it someday, since the idea at least was good. ;) My novel this year will be the second in a series of stories I'm writing about this boy from this glowing alien race who comes to Earth as an exchange student to try and get help for his dying world. By this point in the series, he will have not only gotten that help, but will have been made the ambassador to Earth since he logically knows the most about the people of Earth, and will therefore periodically travel between the two planets. The only problem is, by this point in the story, some people are angry about how his arrival on Earth spawned a drastic change in society, and they don't like it, so they want revenge.</p> <p>Well, now my kitty's come up and said he wants attention, so I guess I'll close this and give it to him. ;) Hope to meet some of you soon! Take care, and have a nice day!</p> <p>Melissa<br /> ----------<br /> Never stop believing in magic.

I can't remember but I thought about six or seven. I didn't get to the meets but would like to this year. </p> <p>I work 8-5 downtown so, if you are in that area, I frequently do lunch at McDonald's on Main. Not always at noon but anywhere between 11:30 and 1:30. I'm the woman with the bun probably reading a book. I look a bit like a librarian... well, I've been told that.</p> <p>How are you doing plot wise? I'm going to spend time this week trying to prompt some ideas. I've had a couple but they didn't grab me and say WRITE!</p> <p>Well, catch you later. I'm off to run something down.<br /> ----------<br /> Dixiegirl<br /> "May you be captured by a dozen ideas that you quickly convert to a good story."<br /> Previous NaNoWriMo<br /> 2006: Untitled<br /> 2007: Shakedown</p> <div class="og_rss_groups"><ul class="links"><li class="first last og_links"><a href="/eng/node/269" class="og_links">United States :: Indiana :: Evansville</a></li> </ul></div> http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/node/3014444#comments United States :: Indiana :: Evansville Sun, 5 Oct 2008 09:22:06 -0700 Dixiegirl 3014444 at http://www.nanowrimo.org
