WIP Wednesday!
I'll be honest - I haven't written much "new" stuff in September. I'm still RPing things with Meghan, which is a nice break as far as editing/hauling ass on Ninjetti stuff. I'm currently editing the last big fight scene, and I feel like it'll need another complete overhaul once it goes to beta. That's fine - I expect that, because I never get fight scenes right on the first or fifth or tenth try, so.
I did, however, get to meet up with my NaNoWriMo writing group for the first time this year! I didn't get as much done as I wanted, as they're currently prepping for NaNo and I already have a good idea of what I'm going to work on, so we didn't do word sprints this time. But I did get a bunch of stuff to read re: plot and structure (the handouts Stacy made for this round), as well as a few recommendations on books about writing fight scenes. I'm gonna get good at this shit if it kills me, I swear.
In between conversations, I did write a little bit for Ninjetti at the meetup. Part of the plot of this novel is tying the Rangers to the Sokovia Accords in the MCU, and the fact that the Rangers will not sign them for obvious reasons. Their identities are secret, they're not going to let the government control them, and Angel Grove is split into who thinks the Rangers are heroes and who thinks they should be held responsible for all the damage. Never mind the fact that the Avengers have not shown up to fight the giant monsters, kaythanksbye, and without the Rangers the town would be destroyed.
So I thought it would be fun to have the feds show up in Angel Grove. The Rangers take this about as well as one would expect.
( tbh I'm really just excited to make the Juice Bar and Ernie a thing again )
I'm also still tempted to hammer out a treat for Press Start but it wouldn't be ready before reveals. >.> We'll see what happens. I can still gift something later on if I wanted, and I may do that.
