NaNoWriMo Mock 2

Flushed with the successful completion of last year's contest, I have signed myself up. The problem is, I have no story idea. I've been turning over various plots in my mind, and I'm not sure what I want to do.

The thing is, for ages I've wanted to write a good ghost story. I get really tired of the stories where the ghosts are all chainsaw murdering serial killers or, at best, somehow manage to cause physical damage to the living. I have been wondering if I could write a good, scary story.

I have had this one idea that I tried awhile ago, but I think the plot was all over the place. I thought I might give it another go, but it has to do with a girl who can see ghosts, and between various television shows with that same theme, and at least one YA series that already features said type of girl, I don't know if I should do it.

So...poll...

Oh, come on...

So I am trying to download that new LJ talk thingy, and all goes well, and I put in my username and password as I am supposed to, and it tells me it is incorrect. It's not bloody incorrect. The LJ people say all I need is my username and my password. I'm putting in my username and password. I know my bleedin' username and password isn't wrong.

Garh. Has anyone else tried this? Are you having any problems or is it just me?
