Nanowrimo for 5th November
Excerpt from Dubbo and Jane Johnson's Genie - Part 11
“Well, we have looked at the area of the devastation and haven’t found the opal, or Annie. What now?” Aliadine asked.
“We look around here for clues about the event,” Rebecca said.
“As far as I know, Annie was looking for the opal somewhere in South Dubbo after the devastation event had taken place,” Hayley said.
“That is no help then,” Renee said.
“I have no idea. Maybe we can go for breakfast and then come back,” Nicola said.
“That is a good idea,” Rebecca said. They all agreed and went up Darling Street towards the KFC.

Chris, Clare, Jessie and Mara exited Yaruga Street into Bumblegumbie Road. They were mostly silent, thinking about what may have had happened during the night.

Mark, Katherine and Nikki were still talking when they saw someone enter the lounge room from the hallway.
“How did you get in here?” Mark asked.
“From Dubbo, via that ‘Adventure Land’ place,” the newcomer said.
“I suppose so, but where in Dubbo?” Katherine asked.
“In Birch Avenue.”
“I am sorry, but who are you?” Nikki asked.
“I am Tina Young. I also go to Delroy, although I am not in the same year as these 2.”
“Ok,” Katherine said. Tina began to fill them in on what was happening in Dubbo.

Excerpt from Siluria
Siluria
Year X
10 Suzät ( The Shire, including Buckland)
Language: Westron; Shire dialect
Origin: Middle Earth, 1388 Shire Reckoning (2988 Third Age)

The Shire appears close to the Romans. The Hobbits experience no variation in temperature as a result of the ISOT. However the One Ring is included (currently possessed by Biblo Baggins)!

The Romans and the NUK quickly discover the Shire. The inclusion of a society previously thought of fictional is slightly shocking.

The NUK declares the Shire a protectorate whilst linguists begin to try to understand Westron.

Words: 87
Context: ISOT&Conquer: Silurian Edition Map Game
Glossary: ISOT; Island in the Sea Of Time, a transferance through time of a territory, in reference to SM Stirling's Island in the Sea of Time in which Nantucket Island is sent through time from 1998 to 1258 BC.

“I have no idea,” Zarabeth said.
“I suppose that we could try reading some of these books and perhaps find out that way,” Sonja said.
“I suppose so,” Zarabeth said. Sonja grabbed a book from a science shelf. ‘Strange that they would use the Dewey Decimal System in a secret library,’ she thought.

Charlene, Seymour and Elly started crossing the LH Ford Bridge.

Shannon had tried to talk to Abby again, but Abby would not have a bar of it. “Nothing I can do, she is going down the path I was afraid she was going,” Shannon said.
“But what does that mean? Can I do anything about it?” Nicky asked.
“You could try, but I afraid that she is going down that path...” Shannon said ominously. Nicky did not like this one bit.
“But what does that mean?” She asked again.
“Are you sure that you want to know?” Shannon asked. Nicky stepped closer to Shannon, causing the latter to lean against the dining room table.
“I may not be that close a friend to Abby, but I do like her. Tell me so that I may be able to help her though whatever she is going to go through,” Nicky said.
Shannon moved aside and sat down on one of the dining room chairs.
“Sit and I will tell you,” she said. Nicky sat down and Shannon began talking...

Wendy entered the Woolworths Supermarket. She was shaking all over. She then heard a strange moaning sound...
“That doesn’t sound good!” she said. She started walking slowly towards the sound...

Nicola, Hayley, Rebecca, Aliadine, Danielle and Renee arrived at the Darling/Nancarrow Intersection.

Nanowrimo for 3rd November
Excerpt from Dubbo and Jane Johnson's Genie - Part 11
At the Collins’s house – ‘What is wrong Abby?” Shannon asked. She had cornered her in one of the Collin’s spare rooms.
“You know something about the role I am going to play in the near future! And you are not telling me!” She said.
“Would you really like to know something from your future?” Shannon asked. That brought Abby up short. She hoped that something terrible was not going to happen to her as a result of her selfishness about the opal.
“Is it something bad?” Abby asked.
“Don’t worry Abigail, you are going to survive the events of the next week,” Shannon said. Abby was relieved that she would survive, she hoped that Shannon was right, but she didn’t like being called by her full name. She stormed off.

Jane, Olivia, Martin and the others entered McDonalds for breakfast. It was, amazingly, open.

Zarabeth and Sonja had searched the secret rooms beneath the science block and were now searching the Library beneath the official school library.
“What do you think the purpose of this secret library is?” Sonja asked.

Excerpt from The Many Doctors - Chapter 3: Plan of the Drahvins - Subchapter 4: Torchwood Saves the Day
“No, No No NO!!!!!” Kellira screamed, when she saw the Torchwood fleet decloak.

“Identifying as Torchwood Institute, Mistress,” 4W31.iii.iip said.

“This is Captain-General Jack Harkness of the Torchwood Institute to Drahvin forces. Surrender or face the consequences!”

Kellira seethed. All of her carefully laid plans were going to ruin. With the addition of the Torchwood fleet the humans outnumbered the Drahvins 2:1. “This is High Admiral Kellira of the Drahvins, to Captain-General Jack Harkness of the Torchwood Institute. I will never surrender!”

“Prepare to see your fleet destroyed, Kellira!” Harkness said.


The Torchwood ships then engaged the Drahvin ships, the Ianto Jones leading the way. The UNIT vessels regrouped around the Valiant II and moved aside to allow the Torchwood vessels clear shots.


“You know this ‘Jack Harkness’, Doctor?” Jia’hale asked.

TAFE, then helping one of my brother's friends with his TAFE studies.

Also watching Phineas and Ferb with my sister.

Anyhow. I have been studying Information Technology at TAFE New South Wales (Technical College) and as part of that have been learning HTML. I have been wondering which HTML tags would work when put into a Livejournal post?

Headings Work

I know that bold, Italics and underline tags work.

It is also possible to have links: a large page of links

embedding pages?

If that doesn't work, i guess I will have to look at LJ's FAQ's.

Images

I know that it is definitely possible to put images in entries

Excerpt from: Doctor Who: The Many Doctors: Chapter 3 - Plan of the Drahvins: Sub-chapter 4: Torchwood Saves the Day

“Harkness! UNIT and I definitely need your help,” the Doctor said.

“We will be there momentarily, Doctor,” Harkness said.

“But there is no fleet on the sensors,” Sabrina said.

“That is because the Torchwood fleet is currently cloaked, miss...</o>” Jack said.

“Davis, Sabrina Davis.”

“I will talk to you later,” Jack said.

“Jack!” the Doctor warned, when he noticed Harkness flirting with Sabie.

“What? Can’t I have some fun? Anyway, there! Decloaking now. That should give those Drahvin ice cubes something to think about!” Jack said.

“The ‘Torchwood’ fleet is decloaking, Doctor,” Felicia said. Sabrina seemed to be ‘taken up’ by the commander of said fleet...


The Torchwood fleet decloaked. Many of the Drahvin fighters immediately broke off from their engagements against the UNIT fighters and went off towards the Torchwood ships.
