Brief Author Bio: I've never been a "writer," not one of those who wrote things as a kid, or anything. Nearly the only thing I've written are academic papers. Fiction will be a challenge! 50,000 words of freewriting... I'm getting in the groove. |

Synopsis: Literature & Latte
No real plans yet. A free flowing development of characters as they think and do things in various settings. I want to work on characterization via environment, setting, weather, color, whatever.
I'll probably write mostly about women, books, and cats. And a special coffeeshop in Boston.
Won't know what genre it is until it starts happening.
If any of you recognize the name 'Literature & Latte' in my novel title as the company that makes Scrivener (for the Mac), you're right. Keith Blount, owner, has given permission for me to use the name of his company as my coffeeshop name.
Any Mac users out there who haven't tried Scrivener, there's a special NaNo trial that won't expire until Dec 7 & if you make your 50K you get a 50% discount on the software. Now that's real support of NaNoWriMos! Go to Fun Stuff/ Special offers from the home page to see.
