Ok so Novel month isn't till November but I am getting a head start since it is my first one. I hope you guys like the prologue. I am not done but here is what I have so far. Please point out gramical errors and spell fails.

Prologue

Earth. This place is full of surprises, though not all are good. The bad surprises you get are usually caused by humans. Their lack of control has led to many things in the past that have proven fatal, but no one was prepared for the war. A few humans lost their tempers and ,as a result, started a global nuclear war. The bad things about nuclear wars is, no matter where you hide, you always seem to get effected. Some humans died from the war, and it was over 100 years before it was safe to resurface. Safe for the normal humans that is. The chemicals put off by the nuclear weapons effected some humans in a way no one expected. Mutants were created because of this. Some were infused with animals like cats, dogs, wolves, bears or any animal that was close by you when the attack happened. Others were infused with elements like Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind. There were also some who had branch offs of each element. Some could control Ice, some could control Lave, some could control minerals. The possibilities were not limited. But the thing about having humans who were different? There are always those who want to study you. The government, or what remained of it, took all of the mutants and put them in a special facility to study, sealing them off from the outside war. Mutants were tested, combinations of children were born, and many people died. Some mutants tried standing up against the scientists, but they were killed as examples. But the worst part of this prison was that the scientist forced the mutants with animal traits to fight in arenas. The person left alive was the winner. But the scientist wanted something more that just fighting mutants. They wanted the ultimate mutant, one who's blood would be able to withstand traits of all of the animals and elementals. They found the perfect mutant, but she died during the process. The bright side? She was pregnant and the baby was, and is, still alive.


(the part about the fights with animal mutants was something i added it wasn't originally in my story but i figured it would make it more interesting. What do you guys think?)

I certainly do like the idea of it. Especially the binding of elements and certain animals. Im trying to picture what they'd look like and it's certainly not a place i'd wanna be haha!

So i guess you're writing a mutant style horror novel?

How much planning have you done so far? Or is it a new idea?

that you i will post in your thread when i can. Well me and my friend were gonna write it together but she decided to quit helping so no it is just me. but yeah we had put alot of planning into it. It took us a week or two to come up with all of the characters. The main character is gonna be a Cat mutant. she is gonna be the one who helps get them all out of there. Of course other day i was told you can't start your novel til November so i am confused now. can we start it or not? oh and i was told by some random person that Water, Earth, Wind, and Fire are not elements. :/ i didn't say anything to them lol. but thank you for reading my novel. i plan on putting all my effort into it :3 I hope I can make it interesting.

We're not supposed to start writing till November 1st yeah. Cause everybody will start together, but i guess you could, then just count the words you've got to on november 1st and add it to 50k and thats what you're aiming for maybe? xD

well i was working on it before i planed to enter the novel writing contest. i have another idea i might use instead if i can't use this since i have already started on it. I haven't done anything besides the prologue though.
