Mako Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Sigh. Monday tomorrow. Oh well... How's life your end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Not too bad. Today has been an apathetic 'I want to do something...but I also don't want to do anything' day. Which has been annoying, because I still have stuff to do. Ah well. Church was good, they did things differently today and I got a lot out of it. Been trying to figure out how to fix Faulkner, and just some odd 'can I get away with this before breaking SoD' thoughts for the novel. ---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 PM ---------- I saw you got sculpting done, looks good! Shifting over to the 6mm project for a while? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Sounds like a mixed bag there, but progress on the novel is always handy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Honestly, I wish I could call it progress, but sadly anything but...Trying to figure out how to fix a character that is 'bland' is a lot harder than it sounds. I realized that unlike Soli (in her role as protector) and Arias (joker/rebel)...I don't have a defined role for Faulkner. Not one that's truly motivating. Yes, he's a family man...but so are millions of other people. So, trying to figure out some sort of thing I can do for him, and running into a wall.

osoi Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Hi Guys I ahd a pretty good weekend, started to assemble my 10T but no one had the basing supplies I was looking for so I will be trying again later in the week at some other places. Got a few games in and also started work on my Wardens which I am hoping to knock off by mid week. Now its back to the grind with work ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 How'd you do in your games, Osoi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Ah. That's less of a good thing! Still, it's at least something to work on. Another session in TV tropes? Lol. I don't know if I'm making any progress with my plan, there's a bunch of post it's on my wall but I haven't got a clue if its going to come together...

edonil Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Well, you might not know until you jump in and get writing...that's what happened to me. And I still have plot holes to figure out, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osoi Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 All wins for me, mix of demo, league and general games. Wardens are good fun, Hoffman as a crew took me 2-3 games to click but now it has it is getting pretty formidable, I will be giving him a rest at the end of the month to play Misaki for a good six months or more.

Mako Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Lol, plot holes are for after NaNo though right? ---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ---------- Wow, winning streak there Osoi! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Misaki for six months, that'll be fun! I wish that plot holes were for NaNo, but this is a little larger than normal...I can't figure out how to get Soli, Arias and Faulkner heading toward a confrontation with the BBEG! So I'm going to have plenty to do while they're at each other's throats...and then stop writing while I have to figure out them finding out what's really going on, and to decide to work together (or at least not against each other) to stop it all, lol. ---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ---------- What's the problems you're having, Mako? Maybe Elle will be able to snap out of muse paralysis by helping Sophie out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Oh, I'm just staring at three major plot arcs that cross over at strange points, trying to work out if they will go together in the order I originally thought. So far I only have the major aspects sorted out, that chapter I sent you is one post it and there's 21 more on the timeline. I think it just confuses Sophie to see her own thoughts up on the wall so I can organise them! ---------- Post added at 01:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 AM ---------- Still, I've just gone and bought chocolate so she should cheer up and start chattering again soon!

edonil Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Ah, so Sophie is rebelling against the organization process, eh? That could be a problem, lol. And chocolate is always a good thing! ---------- Post added at 08:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ---------- Well, I just outlined my whole plot, hole and all, and tossed it up on the NaNo forum for advice...hopefully someone has some ideas!

Mako Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Not rebellion yet, she's still too confused at how what she said is in front of her in neat little segments to actually rebel! Brave move, I've not ventured out onto the NaNo forums yet. But I bet they can come up with something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Two weeks off? That's so unfair!! What you gonna do with your free time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osoi Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Yeah I miss my uni days all those joyful holidays (mind you I worked during them but still) if only I had that sort of free time now ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Aye, it's been a long time since I got anything resembling two weeks off in a row! Even when I was out of work, I ended up spending every day working on finding work and trying to organise things for coming here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Two forty hour work weeks, lol. Gonna take the free time to write and/or paint, more than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Don't write too much, you'll run out of space to write stuff during NaNo! I'd quite like two days off, just so I can enjoy having got past the first stumbling block in a sculpt, and finish up the two gremlins. Ah well, not going to happen!

edonil Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Heh, I'm just worried about what'll happen if I don't write during the next two weeks...I don't need Elle abandoning me right before NaNo... Although, someone just suggested a good idea for my plot that might work. A counter puppet master, to point Soli, Arias and Faulkner in the right direction. Depending on how I do it, it might end up being a deus ex machina... but hopefully not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 ...I think you all forgot about the fact that I'm full time work and full time school... I only got two weeks off the full time school, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
