bored. Doing pointless Will-Hob banter, really need to get this moving a bit so I can write some of the actual plot. (yes, there is plot for my nanowrimo). Have no idea if Hob actually sounds like Bean, (mostly based on Sharpe) but I'm trying. Am v. glad that at least the others are easy as hell to get the voice and speech patterns right, though sometimes have to kick self to stop using modern language and/or euphemisms. Will and Hob are using 'bloody' an awful lot. Am fully vindicated and allowed to use this one, as 'bloody' comes from the 'God's blood/teeth/may god blind me (that one would be blimey)/small furry kittens' sector of swearing.

You've got plot? Seriously? Damn.

Yup. Write a guide for all the scenes I need to include a few days before, which helps immensely when you've finished a scene and are going 'err...'

Basically one sentence notes, some of which are merely 'insert sex scene here'. I think I may need some sort of storming the castle, though I doubt much of actual events is going to happen. Sometimes the plot gets twisted a bit, but it makes it a lot easier than stumbling around going 'what the hell do I do now?'. Though I do like some of the notes from last time, which are 'Harper must start snarking at the Initiative' 'I've got a cousin in Horseguards who's an absolute twit' and 'Oz! Oz! Ozzzzzzzzzzzzzz!' (Any inclusion of short werewolves automatically takes your novel up a notch)
