The Inspired Mind

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

My mood is highly affected by my surrounding but these can be blocked out with the aid of music, but music has even more affect and influences what I want to write. Of course it could just be that when I’m in the mood to listen to certain types of music I am in the […]

The History and Origin of the Elves

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

The Elves are the original Homospapiens of Earth, they arose amongst a plethora of other higher primates with tool building and culture, but in this world there was limited resources and so war was fought primative and brutile. Until one species gained dominance, keeping the few surviours as slave stock. They then went on to […]

Warm up

Friday, October 9th, 2009

Basically I have been quiet sick this year and so am very out of condition with everything – this doesn’t just mean physical stuff it means mental stuff too and skills like writing and drawing – I am out of practice. I was very concerned about this and was wondering if I would manage NaNoWriMo […]

The Punks Ageing

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

I have decided on a drastically slow ageing process for The Punk in Pink – she will age a day for every year! This give me the sort of scope I want for her as she can easily have been a young adult/teenager for the key events I want her to be involved with. Her […]

Ageing of the Elves

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

EelKat on twitter has informed me that the normal lifespan of an elf is 700 yrs which would allow me to encompass the Elizabethan times and the few years in the future that I was aiming for. However I think I want to make the Punks life span even longer than that – why? Because […]

Research

Monday, October 5th, 2009

As part of my research for my NaNoWriMo novel I have set myself the task of watching all the Elizabethan dramas, comedies, documentaries that I can lay my hands on. This means I have highjacked the family love film account and taken no prisoners! I have also been to the local liberary, been talking to […]

erm… Cyber-Punk?

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

When I started with this storyline concept I knew I wanted The Punk in Pink to be a cyberpunk novel as I have always wanted to write scifi horror stuff but tended towards distopian close futures or alternated societial structures and then I tended to write them in a style remaniscent of The Big Sleep […]

An Elf Conspiracy

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

The elves in my nanowrimo story are going to be viscous waring, sentimental thinkers too wit humans who live along time with slightly higher if more narrow brain functions than ‘normal’ humans. They are divided into groups who bicker and war against each other. Once they ruled but they fought a war and were brought […]

An Elf

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Well The Punk in Pink is an elf-human half bred, the elves in question are another higher primate. Sort of like Cro-Mangon Man and Neandethals. They are close enough to cross bred but not close enough to produce viable offspring. This means the Punk is infertile but as the second homo-sapien type race ages alot […]
