oh my god is this plurk going to work this time

hey i'm actually here for this one

oh yay lindsey!! ... when is your flight

oh holy shit this plurk is actually auto-updating for me

AND THE PLURK IS WORKING

tomorrow at 8:30 am haha

yuck

so yano i have to get up at like.. 3 am

i have a 6AM flight myself

oh jesus...

oh man that's worse tho

at least my airport is only 20min away

so... i think your life actually is a little bit harder

mine is only about 40 minutes away but it's an international flight so

we have to be there about 5:30

oh yeah that's rough, mine is in the US

haha yeah i figured. OH WELL we'll both make it through

WE? WHAT IF I DIE

YOU WON'T

i knocked on wood

oh good call

knocks on wood too

ugh im so relieved this dumbass plurk is working again, that was getting really annoying to me

we clearly benefit from the social support component of this

ok go!!!

FLIES

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ok i think we're done

flops back here

214 this time

although i left some blank spaces for names/titles i haven't decided on yet lmfdjsk

whoa you are definitely ramping up, that is a sharp curve

it's getting easier!

also it was a lot of dialogue lmfdsjk

i got 420 ... ... which seems symbolic of what i should do next to unwind. i'm surprised i'm writing so much but tbh none of it is structured or has plot, i think i'm just letting myself ramble like in tags. which is nice! i guess it's good to get into the flow without worrying about technical things

OH dialogue is good

do you feel like that's helping you with character voices

rambling is good too :> word vomit first and structure later

ye! kind of lol

the protag isn't saying much yet it's mostly ppl talking around him

your protag a quiet feller

he's in a precarious situation

but he's not usually quiet... i don't think

nice. then its setting up atmosphere it sounds like

and getting us worried for him

yayyy np bro

i'm away tomorrow but next week we should be able to pick up

ye exactly

what are you working on tho china

i've been percolating and sort of slowly crapping together a story that kind of commemorates my friend who passed away last year. ... INCIDENTALLY FOR SOME REASON parts of it take place in new jersey? but yeah it's about 4 part/asian boys who live in NJ then one day the whole city empties out of people and the geography gets screwed up

like foreign places seeming to pop in

and they're trying to figure out wtf happened and survive

oh man that sounds awesome

if you ever have nj q's i'm here for you haha

omg thank you i really appreciate that

part of me is like WHY DID I SET IT IN NJ and the truth is one of them is a 16-yo EMT and not many states allow that. NJ is one of them! i'm super dumb. SHRUGS!!!!!

LOL i didn't know nj allowed that

but hey just means you get to do fun research

googles things, calls it research, ignores if she gets it wrong!!!! writing in the 21st century!!

i'll fact check for you

i wanted to write a story that relied heavily on new orleans culture and one day i hope to actually go there and get a feel for it

oh yeah absolutely. tbh i did think briefly about visiting NJ when i started this... maybe i will at some point

i know you and a few other people there i think

oh balls also, the next writing sprint is in 5 hours from now! 8PM PST, 11PM EST, 3PM NZST

i may be sleeping but if for some reason i'm awake i will join

yeah i hope you sleep but if not you're more than welcome its really cool to see your word count gradually increasing

ty friend

ofc b

whats your protagonists name btw

callum

but i have to think of a last name...

family names in fantasyland is hard

ooh yeah good luck w that linds
