New Plot

So I decided not to go with that plot. Why?

I like it and all and I think it'll be great and fun to write, but there's this adopt a plot thing going on on CP and so I decided to adopt one that I really like.



"A man (or woman) and his cat are abducted by aliens, but the aliens think the cat is the more intelligent species and only communicates through the feline. Have the MC be either an alien, the man or the cat!

End with them getting back to earth, but it's up to you whether they go back "home" or find a new home in the galaxy. "


The Mc will be the cat, it'll be in first person (into the mind of a cat we go!), and his human will be a history professor named Gordan.

Bet you can't guess the cat's name.

two names the first name is the first name of one explorer the other name is the last name of another explorer. F C are his initials

Gearing Up

It's almost time for NaNo again! *cheers erupt from the background*

Since last NaNo I've... Moved, gotten a horse, visited another state (that's 47 total now), broke my femur, become a better writer, and become quite proficient with crutches. I'm deadly *waves one around in the air*

:6: Not that I'd really hit someone with one...

No, no, I take that back. I would. ^^


I haven't thought about NaNo much until now, except for a few random conversations with MM. We're both planning on doing an off the wall/crazy story. I'm also making my main character an adult guy. This is a first for me. I hope he doesn't end up being too girly. I'd hit myself then... but not with my crutch.

So far what I have in my plot is this guy has a normal day, goes to bed, sleeps, then goes into this dream world and it's very bizarre. People keep telling him that the only way he can get back to his world is when the 'Ones Who Are' deem it to be the right time. He meets a group of 'prophets' who tell him that the 'Ones Who Are' want him to do something (random task and it almost always is very dangerous) and then he can go back to his world. He then performs the task, or sometimes, almost performs it and then gets pulled back to the circle of 'prophets' (who sit around a campfire all the time eating sm'ores) and they tell him that the 'Ones who Are' have changed their minds and want him to do something else.

It's all very frustrating for him... and that's all I have so far.
