Yeah, I'm just trying to unconfusicate Solnes, since she wasn't in on this morning's conversation and posts have been deleted.
Speaking of which, it's time to go check out a certain thread about right now...

I know I did. Stupid work keeping me away from all the people that really matter.

Bump.
Hey Ambrosia...was the temp off for you?
Nope. Just not sure how I feel about posting right now... checking my own temp, not the thread's.

Welcome back. I hope everything is OK.

Didn't get selected. Josh decided no one got the feel for Absalom and is going with an established author. He also changed the submission rules for subsequent PFS scenarios (full adventure or 500-word query, then full adventure) to try to boost the quality of the submissions.
How's the novel coming along?

Well that sucks. I have the Absalom book, and I think your ideas dovetailed nicely. Now maybe it didn't mesh with their ideas or future Absalom plans, but that's not your fault (or any of the other submitter's faults).

Didn't get much written yesterday and nothing today. Not being able to go back and edit/gut it is really bothering me.

It's hard to say. I have a tendency to write more "traditional" style adventures, so that hurts. Plus I used the Minotaur Prince in a way that may have run counter to their plans. He was really supposed to be a launching point for the author's own ideas. A lot of people struggled with this open call, that's for sure.
I have an idea that I'm going to throw Josh's way and see if he likes it. I just have to get it in a 500-word proposal.
I'm learning that it works better for me to just get the words in the document when I write. Then I can go back and edit later. I worked on something where I edited as I went along and totally threw it out because I over-wrote the piece. It was horrendous, and I had to apologize to my critique group when they reviewed it. Obviously, what works for me doesn't necessarily work for anyone else. I was just sharing. :)

You know, just the other day, on a lark, I was musing to myself and nobody in particular, that....though inherently intrinsic to Dragonlance, draconians really aren't mutually exclusive to the aforementioned campaign setting.

I try to just get it on paper first, but I can't go more than a couple pages or so without making at least two editing passes. With NaNoWriMo, I just started with a two sentence idea and two very vague characters... normally, I like at least of page of 'hooky' backstory, a half-dozen conflict ideas, and a pretty complete outline.

If I do this next year, I will plan ahead a little bit. At least I'll come up with a concrete idea of the plot and characters.
Hopefully, it has been a learning experience for you, and I'm impressed with anyone who does it.
