NaNoWriMo

I need to finish this book, so I'm casting my lot with NaNoWriMo. 50,000 words should finish Adam & Eve.

I need to make things bad and worse for Adam & Eve, as they date in the modern world. Any suggestions for things that would be plain awful or plain funny? I have a handful of ideas, all leading back, of course, to Adam and Eve falling back in love with each other. But I really, really want a BLACK MOMENT. Right now, though, it's in the vague category...I guess like all true NaNos, I'm going to have to go on faith that when I get there, it'll be as godawful as I'm hoping. Godawful for the characters, not the book....

One hour into NaNo and I haven't any new words yet. I better be off to get cracking at this...it's nearly 1700 words a day.

If you're NaNoing, good luck, and I hope to cross the finish line with you!

Good luck to you too. I'll be pressing through two projects. I hope. It'll be fun trying. And nope, no words yet.

I didn't know you were doing it on the site until this morning. So far I got in my word count for the day. But how the hell I'm going to do this on a weekday along with everything else, I have no idea.
