Googly Vogonicus #85

On @hugovk's suggestion I'm going to try to generate a 50,000 word version of Vogon Poetry derived from Google's auto-complete. It'll be horrific, and possibly repetitive ... but hopefully it will be VOGONIC!

Work progressing at https://github.com/edsu/googly_vogonicus.

I just realized this isn't reallly a novel per-se. Does an epic poem of 50,000 words fit with NaNoGenMo?

hugovk commented 9 years ago

Sure, why not? The rules say:

The "novel" is defined however you want. It could be 50,000 repetitions of the word "meow". It could literally grab a random novel from Project Gutenberg. It doesn't matter, as long as it's 50k+ words.

By the way, this is the 2013 repo. The 2014 repo is here.
