Stultify
an excerpt

Hooray for me! I am an official winner in my first attempt at taking the nanowrimo challenge! I owe it all to my wife, Ashley, for putting up with me; Red Rose tea; Vault by the Coca-Cola Corporation; Hanes brand boxer briefs, which are, in my humble opinion, easily the most comfortable men's underwear for noveling; Sage Francis, Buck 65, Bad Religion, The Weakerthans, Bloc Party, Godspeed! You Black Emperor, Silver Mt. Zion, Explosions in the Sky and all the others who helped block out distracting telephone calls, barking dogs, and the sound of myself biting my fingernails; and last but not least, my local newspaper, the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, for making aware of nanowrimo in the first place with an article on November 1st, 2007.

Have you ever wondered what you would get if you took a handful of comic books, your high school physics text, the drama club president, the soul of a melodramatic poet with a lousy grasp of rhyme and meter, the Village People, teen pregnancy, the supernatural, gnarly family trees, the biggest little city in the world, Mormons, monkeys, pirates, homemade explosives, bible verse, a cairn terrier named Taffy, famous dead people, highly offensive punk rock music, and a town that doesn't exist and tossed it all in a blender?

I'll tell you...you get my novel - Stultify!
