NaNoWriMo: Day 3

NaNo Tip for the Day: Just tell your story. Don't worry about structure, characterization or whether you've hooked your reader. Just write. This is your first draft and it will be a perfect first draft purely because it exists. You can simply say he did this, she did that, he thought this, she thought that. Your only goal for the month is to get the ideas in your head onto paper.

NaNo Prompt for the Day: Use the phrase "17 cats in the basement" in your story today.

In my world: Michael has returned to the theater just as the evil Supreme General Greene is completing his first session of black hypnosis. Tanya has begun to emerge from her incomplete hypnosis.

Happy writing!
