Author bio:
I started doing NaNoWriMo six years ago determined to finish the first draft even if that was more than 50,000 words. I've kept with that goal even when the first draft is more than 150,000 words. (One year I finished the first draft of two novels, and wrote 180,000+ words and then decided that it was time to quit trying to write more each November.) I often have the goal of writing 100,000 words, but the first draft will be what it wants to be. While I like an outline, my characters tend to be 'discovered' in the course of writing, and they like their air time once they finally get to come on-stage in November.
I've written two novels that occur at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. My 2008 NaNoWriMo book is for sale at:

and Amazon, and for the kindle. (Can find all versions at katherinelato.com )
After November, I can be found at critiquecircle.com where I'm known as KatWrite. (Everything gets cut in editing.)
