IT'S WINCHESTER NIGHT, HOLLA
Oct. 4th, 2007 10:07 pmSupernatural's back! Hurrah! ( Minor spoiler talk. )
Also: NaNo time is arriving soon, and I am, once again, going to participate. However, I've got two plots I want to pursue, and I cannot decide between them.
The first: high school girl contracts disease that puts her up in quarantine. While there, she meets a guy who has the same disease as she does, and though he creeps her out at first, they form a friendship, and despite the whole disease thing, it'd be a comedy. Initially, I was going to have her have tuberculosis (post-health scare of mine), but now I don't know. The thing is, I have a lot of this plotted out and even have a title (Girls in Ivory Towers, for some reason), but I don't know if I could make it work without listing a lot of health facts and trivia.
The second: college guy decides to participate in a sociology/psychology experiment. In this experiment, he is assigned a partner--a girl--who he has to talk on the phone to at least two times a week. The point of the experiment is to decide if a person can be attracted to someone by their voice, and if so, would later seeing pictures of the person you only knew by voice affect your decision on how attractive they were? So college guy ends up talking to this girl, and he likes her voice and genuinely likes talking to her, and he's hell-bent on finding out who she is, though it's going against the point of the experiment and she insists that he would never like her as she is.
More and more, though, I am leaning towards the second. Mostly because I keep wanting to write it with dialouge and correspondence (IMs, letters, journal entries) only, just to be different. Which one do you like more?
Randomly: last week, my dad found a plastic bag containing my Girl Scout patches, badges, and pins. God, it made me miss scouts. I'm actually going to try to volunteer with a Girl Scout troop, as they're looking for some in the area. One of my biggest regrets will always be that I never got my Silver and Gold Awards.
