Time for some fun, games, and time-wasting! And nothing combines those three quite like TV Tropes! For those unfamiliar with the site, TV Tropes is an encyclopedia of all sorts of useful and random information that show up fiction and even real life. The Useful Notes is a particular favourite of mine, especially if you want a quick list of random tidbits on life in England or the differences in Southern accents in the USA.
It can be a lot of fun to find out that your novel takes place in an Inn Of No Return and then check out a list of stories that all have creepy inns of their own. Be warned that it’s easy to loose many an hour here, but if those hours help you relax and learn a little more about your novel, all the better, right?

I found the tropes to be interesting, and yes, very good at wasting time. Where else can you learn about Smurfette, MythBusters and ninjas all in one sitting? Thanks for sharing! =)
