Creating a world

Jody and my book is coming along nicely. We have alot of ideas allready well thought out as far as background for the story and a general setup for the plot. We are trying to do something different in the fantasy genere. Unique is the key word for this little project. We are working on filling in all the details now, like the characters backgrounds, the world itself, the societys incountered, creatures that inhabit the lands. Basically building the world from the ground up. We are taking a very Tolkienian way of doing this. We started with talking about the world and from that we came up with our main characters and the plot has been forming. This is going to take a long time to write but I think it will be very cool when it's all said and done.

I don't really have anything else to write about. I'm working on getting a job through a temp service in Dothan and I am going to see about what I need to do to start being a substitute teacher as well. I'm considering going to get my teaching degree but I want to see first if that is really something I want to do and I figure the subbing will be a good place to start and test the waters. No woman in my life right now, but what else is new. I've never been very good in that department. My lucks bound to change sooner or later so I'm not going to worry about that too much for now. I really need something to read to kill the downtime I have right now. I'm heading to my grandparents next week for Thanksgiving. Its about the only time during the year the family gets to see everyone. Oh but this weekend dad is coming down on Saturday to watch the Alabama/Auburn game on the big screen so that should be fun. I've been cleaning the house (scary I know) the last 2 days getting ready. Speaking of people visiting me, some more of my friends should come down sometime, especially if you haven't seen the house yet! (eyes everyone)
