Oct. 24th, 2008 06:51 pmRight. So. November's coming up. I think you all know what that means: NaNoWriMo out the ass.
But, being the rebel I am, I'm not going to do it like normal people! I am, instead, going to follow my heartto Sniper Island and write the script for a comic book/graphic novel/whatever instead. Same principle, just with a script instead of prose.
(before anyone says anything, yes, I know there's a sister event to NaNo, for scripting. But that's for screenplay writing, which is a whole other animal)
Now, the natural hitch in this is word count. Examining scripts I've written in the past reveals that at the words-per-page rate I've previously written at, a 50000 word script would be...292 pages, give or take. I. I'm a bit skeptical about it actually going on that long, but who knows.
I am currently doing planning and research. What I've got thus far, I'm putting in this post.
Note that I don't actually have names for any of these characters/concepts. Have I ever mentioned how much I suck at coming up with names? Well, I do. A lot. So I'll come up with them eventually, but not now.
( Information within! )
Thoughts? Comments? Etc?
