Posting this here to keep me accountable - hopefully.

Just a random plot bunny that I am pantsing as far as I can take it.

Memoir/Cookbook of a travelling cook in a fantasy world, complete with recipes

Day 1 overview:

Only started writing late in the night, after 10PM when i finally figured out what I wanted to do for this NaNo.

Sitting at 1690 words at the moment.

Day 2:

More world building and a couple of smaller chapters. I'm really liking my MC, he seems cool. Found a way to slot this in in a reworked old fantasy world I wrote wayback when, and that gives me a ton of world building I'd already done, and a general plot that I always wanted to follow but never got around to.

I should mention that each chapter contains a recipe, whether that is a real world one, or a fantastical one, as the book is supposed to be a memoir and cookbook/recipe compendium of a famous chef.

WC: 3645.

Day 3:

Bit of a quiet day, some more world building, about to have our first traumatic moment. Fun!

Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.
