I'm not going to link to the other organizing threads I'm just going to give a general summary and plead for more writing. Goal: 50,000 words by July 30 Progress: ~10,500 Again, it's not about getting published or winning awards, it's about having fun and writing and getting to 50,000 words together. http://www.mccoveychronicles.com/2012/6/30/3129314/write-nano-here Basic plot line and how you can help: The World Series Trophy has been stolen by space aliens. The trophy contains shards of Huir's Mirror [an evil thing] The Shards cause problems with all who encounter it except for Psygmagians [or their descendants - the Cain clan is descended from the first Psygmagian RBI members sent to earth: that story needs to be written] Pieces of the Shard have been the source of trouble in: Middle Earth, Krypton, and pieces have been worked into Star Trek history. There are also made up stories not involving works that have gone before. Maybe you can write making some other sci-fi fantasy worlds Shard infested: Star Wars, Doctor Who, Avatar, Dragon Lance, or whatever you'd like to create from scratch. If you don't want to write but have an idea for another world/system infested with Shards drop a line in this fanshot, maybe someone else will write it. Two security guards will eventually be off in the universe trying to track the trophy down and get it back: write up some interesting creatures or situations for them to run into Preliminary work has been done to get the players spirit guide animals involved somehow [Panda, Horse, BabyGiraffe, Melkbulls] somebody could move that section along. And getting some actual baseball players into the story would be great. Aside from setting up Cain with the potential for being some sort of hero nothing much has been done with that. Think of something else
