Brief Author Bio:

I did my first NaNoWriMo in college in 2006. I was a writing major with papers to do and I won!
In 2007 I found the love of my life and was so distracted I let NaNoWriMo go out the window :(
In 2008 I wrote a dreadful book about Vampires and the end of the world, while working a personal business venture.
This year I married the previous distraction from 2007, and I'm barrelling forward with a new book!

Synopsis: The monkey and the dog

A young American woman named Mildred is married to a very Germanic man named Adrian. They met in an airport fast food restaurant and abruptly married over a green card.
They have been madly in love for over 3 years.

One day at a salon Millie's hair gets cut short - TOO SHORT - and she is forced into identity crisis.
Her next door neighbor makes her go clubbing.
At the bar she is mistaken as a celebrity and whisked away to said celebrity's house.
In the morning she finds her husband kneeling over a woman who looks exactly like herself, with blood on his face, trying to revive the actual celebrity. She has died of a drug overdose. But who dumped this famous woman at her house and didn't tell anyone? Was it murder?

Either way, Mildred has a convenient way to leave poverty behind her.

It's very Prince-&-the-Pauper-esque. Only the Prince got trashed and died an ugly death.

This could get interesting.
