[alison-sky.livejournal.com]

Got a problem in your NaNo? Who doesn't?! But we've got a way to help!

Post here with your plot problems, and all through the week members of the community will scan through and see if they can help.

AKA - The best way to procrastinate is to help others!

So post your problem. Then take a moment to look at everyone else's and see if you can help them.

People helping people. That's what makes this community great :)

So have at it!

Haha. It's hilarious. Throw a little snow into the greater Seattle area and people panic. XB

What 'small town' are you from?

Haha, it's always about what you're used to, isn't it?

Here in Central Florida, we get hit by so many hurricanes (like one or two at least come close to us pretty much every year) that we didn't even raise a fuss at anything below Cat 4 until Charlie made a mess at Cat 3. But even now, if it's "only" Cat 1 or 2, we pretty much just sigh and MAYBE we'll drain the pool a little so it doesn't overflow and MAYBE we'll board up if it looks like it might increase in power before it hits and we have some extra time and wood to spare, but mostly we just expect a lot of rain and maybe the power will go out for a bit. Then again, we got sucker-punched by that Tropical Storm Fay this year... but that was mostly just flooding from the rain. :\ The biggest danger is actually flooding and tornadoes, and it's certain areas that really get hit by those (like Barefoot Bay. Every single year they hit by tornadoes, I swear. And yet, it's predominantly trailer parks! You'd think they'd learn...). I'm lucky in that I don't live in one of those areas. :)

Then again, you have idiots like the Darwin Award Honorable Mention who tried to kite-surf in a Tropical Storm (Fay, specifically) and went flying and crashed into a building. Sometimes paranoia wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. :P

Port Townsend. Washington's Own Victorian Seaport, as they say.

Oo, awesome. My dad owns a fishing boat and we've taken it on a few trips to Port Townsend. I hardly remember what the place is like, though. Would be neat to see it again.
