I'm going to dabble at a literary fiction this year. Theater of the absurd of sorts set in an all-girls school where nothing and no one is quite what it/she/he seems.

And you?

Modern day fantasy dealing in the who, what, where, when, and why of dream and nightmare creation. Of course, you'll have your basic struggles, such as escaping nightmares and such, but all in all it's a little different than what I'm used to writing (fantasy/sci-fi).

A light romance with a bit of fantasy and hopefully it will be very funny.
A mad scientist, previously a corn snake, who is a total geek and turns his cat into a person. Enter Lola. Enough said.

Rewrite of the Rapunzel story, in which the plot does not turn on how stupid its heroine is! (She cuts off her own hair and uses it to climb out of the tower, living a double life with the witch during the day and in the nearby town at night.)
