Author bio:

Hello there,

My name is Caitlin. I have always loved writing, ever since I was a little girl...(and now I have that Black Kids song in my head!). I'm married. I have a dog. I also have a job. That's pretty much me. Have I mentioned I like to write? pretty obvious I guess if i'm on here...

I'm excited to be doing NaNoWriMo yet again! Even though i'm painfully aware I don't really know exactly what's going to happen in my story. Only vaguely, as you can probably tell by my synopsis. Since this year's Nano is the 3rd book in a series, I already have some idea of the main characters, and the world it's set in. But beyond the small number of sentences in my Synopsis, I don't know what i'm doing! *time to panic*

I took part in Camp Nanowrimo this summer (it was awesome!), so technically this years Nano (in November) will be my 3rd (well, 4th I guess, if you count the AugNo I did last summer, but I don't).

I've always loved writing (and reading!) and also love how stories are like little movies in your mind that can transport you anywhere in the world!) My husband is not a big reader and thinks i'm crazy...SIGH.

I've signed with Firefly and Wisp Publishing to have my first novel,'Under a Starlit Sky' (a psychological thriller/steampunk story) published next September 2012! Can't wait!
