NaNoWriMo 2006, The Return of Deacon Dread, Writing

Little Twinkies Needed

Do you all remember that wonderful 80’s film Ghostbusters? Remember that scene where Egon is comparing the average day’s paranormal activity as a Twinkie, and then proclaiming that his numbers pointed to a giant Twinkie looming on the horizon?

I need a bunch of little Twinkies to pepper through my 2007 NaNoWriMo project, The Return of Deacon Dread: odd supernatural events (ideally not actually involving ghosts) that result in someone’s tragic (or, better yet, hilarious) death.

Any ideas? Anyone? The ideas that I really enjoy and end up using will feature the death of the person who suggests it to me (or someone else of that person’s choosing). Since TRODD is just a NNWM project at this stage, I’m not going to worry about potential liability issues.

I’m thinking currently of one Twinkie per chapter, but since I have no idea how many chapters there will be, I can’t say how many Twinkies I want.
