Lesbians for Bush

The final side story, Lesbians for Bush is up. Fair warning - this is easily the biggest spoiler of them all. I almost didn't add it in, but a) my biggest problem right now is that Sissy and Dre's voices are too similar and b) I had thought about it too long, had to get it out. Especially before tommorrow. Sissy is actually younger than Dre, but should sound more mature. She's actually one of the more mature characters in the story, outside of Ma Forrester herself. Although Dre is older, she's stuck with one foot in high school and the other in the college never really attended.

Because of the spoiler factor, I'll just say that this is a phone call between Dre and Sissy after Dre's been a bit bad. I wanted to frame their relationship a bit more. Clearly, this isn't the first time these two have had a conversation like this, and then ending is meant to hint towards the kind of relationship Dean used to have with his hometown friends, though that will get more flushed out in the real story.

This came out at just over 700, so again - about half of a day's work for the NaNoWriMo. Mostly conversation, but that's difficult to get around when it's a phone call.

Tommorrow. Word 1. Chapter 1. I hope to get a better website for displaying sections of the novel, but I'm not sure when I'll have time. Apparently the Nano site has a section for excerpts as well, starting in the morning, so I'll check that out first.
