NANOWRIMO - My Magna Carta I and II
Feb. 21st, 2011 06:45 amI had another insomniac evening/early morning, so I decided to redo this exercise. The last time I did this, it was in 2009 shortly before that nanowrimo. This time, I did it out of boredom.
Basically, you compile two lists before you write a novel: one list for things you believe make a good story/narrative, and another for the things that bore you or the things you simply hate too much to even consider.
I looked at my last lists back from 2009--for some reason, I'm the very first link that shows up on Google when I search "nanowrimo magna carta", even though I forgot I wrote that entry--and I hated the list I've compiled. I won't go into the details as to why these elements work for me unless someone asks, or if I wake up tomorrow and feel inspired to explain myself, but I thought sharing the lists would be fun.
