...What? I gotta have someplace to throw all my ramblings/whinings/plottings/etc. >.>
Not much here yet I'm afraid. Still mulling over the idea I have, and am needing to outline it. (Of course, it's also only the 19th. So still plenty of time for Brain to throw an Entirely New Idea at me. >.>; )
As usual, fully-stocked mini-fridge is over that-a-way as well as the beanbag chairs. \ o / Feel free to raid the fridge and have a fight with the beanbag chairs sit around waiting for some actual content.

No outline yet - haven't even started the novel - but I did finally get a synopses up on the NaNo site. *copy-pastes it here because WHY NOT* Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a princess. This princess was the most beautiful in the land, much to the chagrin of her wicked stepmother. Consumed with envy, her stepmother, the wicked queen, sought to destroy the fair princess. The princess, with the help of a kind woodsman, fled to the dark forest, where she came across a small cottage, owned by seven dwarves. They took pity on the princess, and allowed her to stay there in hiding, for if the wicked queen knew she still lived, she would no longer be safe. The wicked queen, alas, did find out, and renewed her efforts to destroy the kind princess. She almost succeed, too - but it was all for naught. For in the end, True Love's Kiss broke the spell the wicked queen had set over the princess, and the princess and the prince lived Happily Ever After--
...oh. That--
That wasn't how the story ends? You mean there's more?
...So you're telling me that after the princess awakened, she and the prince weren't married on the spot?
That the queen was arrested, and the police got even more involved because of her multiple attempts at murder, not to mention fraud?
And most of the ones involved - the dwarves, the woodsman, even a mirror were all taken in for questioning?
...I don't remember any of that in the story I heard as a kid. Are you sure you know what you're talking about?
...So you're the head investigator into the case. Okay, fine. Maybe you know what you're talking about, then.
I guess I'll just have to wait and see...
...So yes. This shall be a two-part novel. Part I will be the Story, and Part II will be the Investigation. Should be fun. =D |

So in my prologue, I was vaguely referring to a character by her royal title - the queen.
This was all well and good until Brain decided to go "lawl" and make a connection to Hero City.
Which
Yanno
Wasn't awkward at all since the very next sentence I had to write was said queen dying in childbirth. \ o /
