NaNoWriMo 2016...

So, it's rapidly approaching and, to be honest, I really haven't written much of anything in a long time. In between running my various RPGs (Red Sky & Casus Belli), I've been fairly busy with work and just generally haven't felt like doing anything. That said, I really do need to write something and am thinking about trying to finish "Aspects of Silver," my psuedo-Heroic Greece (like) fantasy novel. It is currently about halfway done with the first two parts being 21,710 words and 31,194 words respectively. Part three was started but I petered out, although I do have the outline for both part three and four complete. Am still very proud of the very first line:

Four years ago, prophecy died.

 Yeah. Think I'm going to try to work on that again ...

Paladin Thoughts

In our Friday game, we're playing D&D 5E with a relatively new GM, with a fascinating campaign concept: the PCs are legendary heroes pulled from the past to deal with a great threat ... unfortunately, they were pulled from the timestream before they could become the legends. I decided that I would play a Paladin but wanted to do something slightly different and came up with a concept: the Traitor-Knight. Essentially, in his past-future, he would go on to become reviled by most of the populace due to his siding with the losers of the inevitable war that leads to the current status quo. But that's not what this post is really about. Instead, I wanted to throw out some interesting musings on Holy Knights like this.

NaNoWriMo 2016 Woes

So, October is almost halfway done and I still don't know what I want to work on for NaNoWriMo this year. I did manage a reread (and minor revision) of "Fulcrum" and am attempting to make myself reread what I've got done for "Vorticity" in the hopes that I can make myself finish that, but ... I'm just not feeling the urge or desire to really write, which sucks. I need to figure out what the heck my problem is in that regard and get it fixed.

Evidently...

...if someone thinks the new Ghostbusters reboot trailer still makes this movie look like a steaming pile of fecal matter, that makes one a misogynist. Meh ... whatever. Enjoy failing, you idiots. No one asked for this movie. The only people who are going to watch it are the hardcore feminazi types because everyone else - everyone! - is looking at that rancid pile of dung and seeing it exactly for what it is. As to be a misogynist ... nah. I'm a misanthrope. I hate both genders equally. Humans in general suck.
