Where do I want to go? This track could circumnavigate the globe...

I'm going to keep walking this path because there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

Uh Oh!

That's not a light... it's an oncoming train! Throw away the map.

I want to know what's above and below.

Do I hear seagulls?

Character Voicing
Formulate your main character. Describe traits, physical description, influences, etc. Include lunks to twitter narrative or an xtranormal video of a treatment.

Looking at "character" examples:

book of days illuminates the author of the blog through what he selects and chooses to share.

Natural history blog vector by day across time-- blog software should allow this (drill down by date across time... show me all entries from June 9 across the years).

The "real-time" aspect of Pepys diary blog is interesting...

Finishing Your Story
What was the ending your group drew? How will you reach it?
