The Monthly Writing Prompts- Chat thread, discussion and questions

[Kris]

So Omac asked, and I'm asking you all, are you up to try what we didn't finish last year? (For Nanowrimo)

[ArtisticVicu]

Yes!!! If permitted, I'm posting multiple parts so that we can make 50k, yes?

[Kris]

Indeed!

Shall we use the same hero we had from last year?

[Omac]

I'm just wondering here. I'm still undecided exactly what I'm doing for the next three months.

I forget, what was the hero from last year?

[Omac]

Okay, I looked through this section and I found the character that was chosen.

Spoiler: Planet Traveler!  

Name: Arthur Sandford, Planer Traveler
Age: 89
Gender: M
Setting: really, anything

This is the stories of a guy, now advanced in years, who has jumped planes (timelines) all his life. Stories can thereby be in any sort of setting, and at almost any time in his younger life, including the story of how he managed to get his profession. Basically, this work could be described as "The Many Adventures of Arthur Sandford, Planer Traveler"

Edit: Okay, I think what I'll do is do Crystal Cavern as normal and then have a part of it where he crosses-over. Is that okay?

[Kris]

*Confused*

[Omac]

It's okay. I'm confusing myself too. Basically I plan on starting a story this month and during the month of NaNo I'll bring Arthur over to it for a while. He'll show up in Crystal Cavern in which he'll not be the main character, but then my main character will travel with him. It's a crossover. Like, a trade. I put him in part of Crystal Cavern and then I will also have him go on another journey that is for this with my Crystal Cavern characters by his side. Think of it like is those shows that bring a character from theirs over to another for a special. Bones and Sleepy Hollow did this. Simpsons and Family Guy did this.

You'll still get at least 1,000 words of Arthur's journey that is strictly part of this, and there will also be a Crystal Cavern (which goes up on my Wattpad) which has Arthur guest staring. My Crystal Cavern characters will guest star in an Arthur story, and Arthur will guest star for them. Two different parts. It would be a crossover and I wanted to see if it was allowed.

*rubs back of neck* I feel like a nuisance. Will we be getting November prompts? I completely understand you all are very busy and it's fine if they don't come out till later, if at all. I like doing them every month and look forward to the new prompts. I know that with NaNoWriMo I might not even get the chance to write for this month's prompt till December but I haven't missed a month yet since I started these last year. A year exactly back in October, in fact! 0-0 Can't believe I've been doing these for a year, holy cow. *waves about* That's beside the point. Just let me know if we are doing prompts or not this month. I don't mind waiting for them till December if that is what needs to happen.

Oh! Are we utilizing last year's NaNoWriMo thread for this year's? Or are we starting a new one?

[Kris]

as for the NaNoWriMo, Do we want to continue the one from last year?

[ArtisticVicu]

So....November prompts? My initial question - actually neither question - got an answer.

In answer to Kris: I don't mind either way but I think this stuff has died over here.
