Kristin’s converter tables

Wed 18 Mar 2009 - Filed under: Not a Journal., Writer's Daily Planner | Posted by: Gavin

In response to our call for suggestions for A Working Writer’s Daily Planner 2010: Your Year in Writing Kristin had a fantastic idea:

How about something targeted to the young fantasy/science fiction/mystery writer in all of us?

How far can a horse travel in a day?
Carrying two riders when one is an elf and one is human?
What is the minimum amount of oxygen content/gravity/sunlight able to sustain human life?
How do you allow for time dilation?
A ratio for ambient temperature to body temperature for establishing time of death.

Which led us to supply a few more:

How about how many old ladies visiting your town does it take to produce a murder?
An adverb removal tool to convert your text into noir?

Which then led to the thought: there’s a curiously large internet’s worth of writers out there. Any conversion tables you’d like to see?
