A Lack of Words...
It’s not writer’s block, but I have stared at an almost blank word document since 8:30pm. I have the thought and the desire to write it just hasn’t translated into actual typing tonight, yet. The words that are in the document were all from previous days. A week into writing and I feel 7,000 words behind. It is pressure that is keeping my head numb. Though, I like my story and where it is going.
The setting is a Christian college campus (they say write what you know) and follows two roommates their freshmen year who are day and night opposites. The roommates are about to met for the first time and I am trying to think up real things that will drive them crazy about the other person. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas they are willing to share (real or fictional) that I could adapt for my story?
NaNo Word Count: same as yesterday…

also, maybe temperature sensitivities...i didn't deal with this, but know some people who did. one likes to sweat to death in the heat, the other prefers the cold to snuggle in blankets.
other ideas: different music tastes or decorating sense.
There can also be some taste differences...as in "you can't put up that poster! it's wrong!" or "you watch that show? I'm shocked!"
Steph, I think the "you do that..." is going to be a conflict with a different character.
