So yes, I've finally come back. I know. I'm evil. In addition to the school I've been trying to catch up on, I've been working on a historical fiction novel

Project Name: Scenes of Time Immemorial (SoTI)
Project Dates: April 15—May 27, 2007 (6 weeks)
Genre: Historical Fiction (1500 AD to 1900 AD)
Word Count: 15,000-17,000 words (18 post points possible)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Basics
There are three things you need to understand about the Scenes of Time Immemorial (SoTI) project:

1. SoTI is an exercise in crafting scenes to make them more effective tools in your storytelling. Each scene you post will need to begin with a short Scene Form stating the intentions and purpose for your scene based off of the article Scenes & Sequels.

2. SoTI is an exercise in researching for a historical novella. Your first post will be filling out a Research Form about your particular time period. Research is key to making historical fiction believable. So that's where you'll begin.

3. SoTI is an opportunity to challenge yourself with new ideas. Each of your posts will need to include one element from the Idea Pool, a listing of challenging ideas from fellow CPers.


Totally not my idea.

And in case Mom asks, no, I got off the computer for an hour and a half before getting back on.

Let's see... a lot has been new.. but I'll actually have to go research it so give me about an hour or so...
