The Broken Pipe: Author's Note

Well, I don't think I'm going to finish my NaNoWriMo. I tried posting it here, but Blogger has horrible formatting (the text went off the page, unless I removed the formatting, then went through every individual paragraphy to remove the extra spaces, and even then, it didn't have the indents). Instead, I'm just going to link to a public cleaned up Google Doc for it.
I liked how everything was going, but I still need to work more on my character development skills. I did love including little notes at the beginning of each chapter though. I also switched back and forth between two storylines in each chapter, and I wish I could have connected them more, since here they didn't affect each other much. Anyways, here's the little synopsis before I start:

On a planet that doesn't spin, human life is forced to live at the mild equator, stuck between the harsh deserts and freezing glaciers in a permanent twilight. To expand their population, huge pipe systems are built to pump the extreme air across to the other side, creating small pockets of livable climate. But, when one of these pipes becomes blocked, the entire town begins to slowly freeze to death, trapped in a shrinking pocket of winter. They must seek out what's causing the block and destroy it before time runs out.

I love the world that this is set in, so hopefully there will be more stories set in this universe in the future. Hope you enjoy!
