nanowrimo_ljYes, I know you've all been waiting in eager anticipation for this thread to start up, and now you don't have to wait any longer!
So, for the new kids in the community, here's the basic gist:
This post goes up once a week. In here, you can ask for help on your plots. Each week I start a new post. You can keep asking for help each week, but try to ask for something new each time.
Also, if you want to get help, you also have to give it. Which means that you take time when you can to go through the help "requests" and see if there if anything that jumps out at you that you want to toss a suggestion at.
One of the beauties this community has is the willingness to help each other along in our 50k goal. And here is the place to do it.
And of course, that said, here's the BOO part.
With the thread means that these types of posts are no longer allowed to be individual posts in the community. So if you see one go up, feel free to leave them a comment and point them to the current week's help thread and the rules. I'll catch up with them eventually, but that kind of help (which alot of people are already doing for intro posts) is really appreciated!
So that's it. Feel free to start getting plot brainstorming down before NaNo, and help one another out. :)

You pretty much described my day (except we actually are the IT department lol). It sounds right though, giving her something pretty boring that she wants to escape from. I think she should be happy in her work though, so content to stay in that job. Perhaps it's not glamorous but if there's pretty reasonable pay and she's not really looking for much more. I don't want her to seem like she's waiting for The Ex to make her life complete or "better" in some way, you know?
