So, a few things regarding NaNoWriMo ...

[apocalypsos]

1. Considering the fact that my schedule is absolute crap, and that every workday I have is pretty much a lost writing day thanks to the fact that sleeping, eating, and getting ready for work take up basically all of my time on workdays, I'm probably going to start writing on Monday morning when I get out of work. Otherwise I've only got two weeks worth of days off to write 50k and while it's possible, NaNo's less about the getting-that-book-I've-always-wanted-to-write thing for me (for obvious reasons) as it is about me just making a big fucking dent in a word count on a new novel. So if I bend the rules, I bend the rules. At least I'll get it written.

2. I was just letting my mind wander last night and brainstorming to see if there was anything that struck me creatively the same way the superpowered socialite plotbunny does, and some of them ... uh, kinda do. I don't know, it's not like I don't want to write it or anything, but I think I need to play in that world a little more before I start writing. I mean, right now I've only got two superpowered famous people in this story and it hit me last night that the problem might be that if I'm going to do a straight version of the superpowered J2 AU then part of the joke is that all these famous idiots in the tabloids are secretly superheroes. So, you know, I have to work on that tonight at work.

3. One of the story ideas I wrote down was Dean's hardcore lesbian threesome porn. Er, yeah, not so much.

First drafts are meant to be shit. You can sort it all out later, but at least you have something to sort.

And what's Nano but a first draft written at speed?
