Seven more days until NaNoWriMo. How prepared am I? Not as prepared as I would like to be. It seems I've focused more on my main character's back story than the actual plot. I've got the plot broadly figure out but the devil is in the details, as they say.
Since the main characters travel to five or six points in time, I'm thinking about structuring the plot like it's five or six Doctor Who episodes, complete with titles and different menaces in each.
It's always amazing how things evolve in the planning process. Tommy Anomaly was conceived as a Doctor Who knockoff and has grown into a combination of Doctor Who, Captain Jack Harkness, and Han Solo. I'm a lot more excited about the character than when I started planning and think I have a pretty good handle on him.
In non-writing news, the tidal wave of free books I was hoping for after the Forbes article about Goodreads has yet to reach the land.
