Characters

I've got the general bones of a novel forming. At the moment, I have two characters, a woman and a man. I suspect this will be a "searching for love" story or something along that theme.

Outline in Preparation for 11/1/09

I just downloaded and installed yWriter. In keeping with the spirit of NaNo, I will not start writing my novel until 1 November. However, I wanted to start a sketchy outline and draft out a few characters. I have the nugget of an idea and wanted to get it down before it left my head.

So I am trying yWriter. It gives me the tools I need to build the skeleton of an outline and helps with documenting research etc. So far so good!

Oh and I got Chris' book, read the entire thing up to the appointed stopping place and am now ready to wrestle words.
