I wasn't going to blog today.

Two reasons:
1) To spite Eevee, and
2) I didn't want to feel like I needed to.

And no, I don't feel like I need to, but I just wanted to post stuff here about NaNoWriMo in November. I feel that since it's exactly 6 months away, I can start plotting* away, and you all can follow along this epic journey with me!

What I came up with today:

basic plot:
The documenting of the Moon Colony, occupied by Earthlings, set in 2059, as it is invaded by a different species of aliens. The aliens are using the radio frequencies to manipulate the fears of the people and influence, however indirectly, their actions. (Most of this is fairly subject to change.)

The story is paralleled by a Space Mission from 2030, twenty nine years prior, as remembered by the main character: Carl Kariuki the janitor custodian from Kenya.

Also included:
various flashbacks from the age of the dinosaurs
random anecdotes in which unicorns and dragons rule the Earth
early colonization "facts" about the moon.

It'll be written as though it's a nonfiction book, except for when Carl is narrating. I'm pretty excited about it. Let me know what you think.
