A community for National Novel Writing Month.

(https://nanowrimo.org/)

Fancy having a go at writing a novel in a month? Or just enjoy pointless literary endeavours?

Well this is a place for you.

Start on the 1st of November, and let it rip.

Rules :-

Be nice to each other, and try to keep it safe for work. And if you can't keep it safe for work, tag it as such :)

Also, if the community could be kept a politics free zone, that would be nice.

The sentence game (self.nanowrimo)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by GabrielBell12fi to c/nanowrimo
 

So the rules of the game are this :-

The first person (which is me, I guess) writes a sentence.

EG : I went to London to see Wicked.

Then the next person (which in this case is also me) has to write the next sentence using the letters of the last word of the previous sentence ("wicked").

Wild invertebrate crabs kiss excited dolphins.

(The sentences don't have to make sense, as long as they are readable).

So then the next person would have to write a sentence based on the letters "d, o, l, p, h, i, n, s".

Weirdly, it is good practice for NaNo because it makes you think about a lot of words you might never use in day to day conversation and how to put them together in a sentence.

So -- have at it with "dolphins" :)

Update :- I think to avoid countless lines down the left hand side, it should go like this :-

Sort by New (as opposed to "hot")

If you are posting the next turn in the game, just create a new post (click "Post")

If you are replying to a post to comment on it ("Nice", "Cool", "Wow" etc) then reply to that post.

Because otherwise we could really get a lot of lines down the side?

Deirdre only lost plausible interest near salamanders.

Sometimes cars are robots, Edward decided.

Dumbstruck, Emily ceased inquiring. Damn Edward's dramatizations.

"dramatizations"

Did Romeo, a Montague, attack Tybalt intensely, zealously and theatrically? If one notes Shakespeare!
