Day -1 : In which the Writer panics with last minute worldbuilding late at night, the Muse attempts to point out the obvious, and the rest of the fictives have already thrown in the towel.

Day -5 : In which the Writer, Muse, and fictives hash out (in vague terms) where they live, why they agree to the quest, and just what sort of fantasy they are in.

Day -10 : In which the Writer, Muse, and wolpertinger start hashing out descriptions and plot points.

Day -16 : In which the Writer and Muse both have no idea what is going on, but it’s NaNo Prep so that’s pretty much par for the course. A plot bunny is chosen and an idea is had!
