Some links...

Through http://noggs.typepad.com/, I came across the Mundane SF Manifesto, which looks interesting.

Another blog I came across is this one: http://booksofnote.blogspot.com/

ABOUT:

Write an entire novel in a month?

Who would be crazy enough to try to do such a thing?

Well, there's a growing number of crazy people doing just that this month, November 2004.

NaNoWriMo is now underway and this is where I have decided to attempt to write mine. I chickened out last year, but told myself I would definitely take part in 2004. If all goes well, I should be posting 50,000 words worth here during November 2004.

The clock is ticking.

Given the velocity of writing involved in this crazy project I wouldn't be surprised if at the end of the month I have a load of gibberish, but who knows? I have my story, and plan to keep notes on how things are going and how the story is developing here.

Here's the blurb if you're interested in reading as I write:

AD2024. The Earth's resources are running out and the Environment is becoming more hostile every year. The world has become polarised between the haves and the have nots. Those who are privileged, who are lucky enough, who are be able to afford it, live in an environment where their every need can be catered for. A smart chip, implanted in every legal citizen's upper forearm has superseded the need for identification, credit cards, money, passwords, keys, etc. It is the perfect solution for a comfortable life.

Jay Gee is one many insiders, people who live permanently under protective cover, living and working without ever leaving the connected world of concrete tunnels that is The City. Jay is an extreme example. For five years now, he has never left his building; indeed he has hardly left his flat. His life is turned upside down by the death of his mother and the subsequent re-encounter with a long lost friend, who finally persuades Jay to leave his sheltered world, in order to meet her. However, this first trip outside doesn't turn out as planned.

Interested?
