Brief Author Bio:

Fox, your lovely local Municipal Liaison for the Pittsburgh region here! Living in Squirrel Hill with my writer husband (who refuses to WriMo, no matter how I beg). I'm going for the big number eight this year, so I can have a reality series called Fox Plus Eight (Crappy Novels).

You name it, I have WriMo'd through it (moving across the country the week before November, getting married in November, starting a week late, college during WriMo, grad school during WriMo...) If you need advice or have any insane questions (is it okay to write between the ceremony and the reception, how much will I hate myself if I read what I wrote during that 20k scramble day on November 29?, etc.), just drop me a NaNoMail. Always looking for new WriMo friends, and more people to attend our fantastic Pittsburgh Write-Ins! And hockey tickets, I'll take those too :)

Synopsis: The Girl Who Talked to Horses

Claire is a twenty-one year old harness racing trainer whose horse is poised to win this year's Hambletonian. As he crosses the finish line, an enormous thunderclap hits the previously-blue sky, spooking him and causing him to buck and land uncomfortably on his ankle, shattering it. When Claire rushes to the track to comfort him in his lasts moments, she learns she can now communicate with horses, and he speaks to her.

A few months later, trying to find herself again after the loss of her best friend, Claire finds a portal in the woods behind her house which leads to an alternate world where horses and humans have coexisted equally for years. She meets new friends along the way, and begins to learn that the evil forces that threaten their world are trying to make their way into ours, and it is up to Claire to save both realms.
