In The Hidden Valley - Chapter 7
Oct. 31st, 2009 11:32 amIt's Halloween, October 31, and only a few hours left before most of my creative efforts will be aimed in the direction of pumping out an original novel for the NaNo this year. I only got about 10k words into last year's idea before my Muse dried up on me, so it will be interesting to see if I can pull it off properly this time.
The plot for this one has been rattling around in the back of my mind for a couple of years, and I even attempted at start at it a while back. This time around, I've done a bit of research on the science of what would happen to the remains of our civilization if WE were taken out of the picture; I've done a bit of world-building in my note-taking program; and I have the rough idea (aka. a VERY vivid dream) of what the major thrust of the story will be about. It's an epic - this NaNo will be about getting a goodly share of the first volume actually written down. Good luck, me!
Thank heavens I have stuff set aside to keep you folks happy on weekends for a while. Here's the next chapter of this one, where things happen that we've all known needed to happen.
