My Crazy Brain

So yesterday my brain melted from synopsis anxiety, and I numbed the pain by watching the Discovery channel for a few hours and then Hackers. Then I went to bed, where I proceded to the most vivid dream I've had in years.

( The wack-assedness of my subconscious )

There's a book in that dream somewhere, if I could sort out all the craziness.

My Crazy Brain, cont'd

So the wack-ass dream has been with me all day, and I've started turning it into a book. Whee.

So far I have 300 words of notes, five characters with names, and enough plotty stuff to get through several chapters. I would like to know the names of the cities and countries, because notes full of 'the great city of X' and Xian princes and Xian raiders are amusing but not helpful. I would also like more metaplot besides Nasty Witch-Queen and Underground City full of Vampires.

I would also like my MC's story to not be completely Suetastic, which it is at the moment. Sekrit Parentage, Foster Family, Tragic Slaughter of Foster Family, Capture By Scary People, Temple Courtesan Training... I need to sit her down with Isyllt for a quick course in antiSuedom.

Fortunately, this story is in Isyllt's world, so any fun stuff about vampires I figure out can be used in Crepuscule, when I finally get to that. And I get to draw a bigger map.
