Any good ideas for a plot?


Next month is NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), and I am hopelessly without a plot. Usually I have some sort of idea laid out, but this year I can’t think of anything interesting.

My genre: Fiction/Fantasy/Sci-Fi

Any suggestions? :)

Writting a script?


So I’m planning on doing ScriptFrenzy this year after all the fun I had doing NaNoWriMo and I just realized I don’t have the first clue about how to write a script. I mean I know what it entails but I don’t know how to do any of the formatting or stage directions. I’ve heard people mention programs for this, can anyone recommend any good ones. Preferably free ones because I don’t know that I’m ever going to write another script and don’t want to spend a ton of money.

Sherrylin Kenyon Word Count?


I’m writing a book for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) and I got curious as to how big this book would be once it’s published. I have all the Sherrilyn Kenyon books, so any book word count would be a great comparison, with exception to Acheron. (I have the book, but it’s much bigger than what i’ve written.) Thank you!

Does anyone have some random compliments?


In the story I’m writing for NaNoWriMo, I have a character who constantly compliments people… but I’m having a hard time coming up with a million things to say.
They can be generic, along the lines of “Oh, that’s your real name? How pretty” or something o.O

Moving to Japan, what would I need?


Okay, so in my NaNoWriMo, my two main characters are moving to Japan, and I need help. I have no idea how it works.
Like, what kind of passport or visa they need.
How they’d get all of there stuff over there.
And that’s all I can think of that I need to know really.
They’re moving there for the heck of it (that’s not the actual reason, the real one is to long to post). But yeah, not for a job or schooling, and they want to stay there.

What was it like during Nixon’s impeachment?


For research, I need to have a first hand report of what it was like during Nixon’s impeachment. Was it insane, or hidden, did people get very angry? If you want to leave a small, three sentence answer about it that would be great
(No, this is /not/ homework. I’m doing research for Nanowrimo)
Okay I used very bad wording, sorry. But you know what I mean. :/
He was not impeached, he resigned-but we would have been impeached.
