Brief Author Bio: Been NaNoing since 2001, and have several completed first drafts of books as a result. Now I just have to get off my tail, clean them up (more than I already have) and try to get them published! |

Synopsis: It's All Your Fault
Was gonna be: Genre - Comedic Romance; Working Title - It’s All Your Fault; Synopsis - A geologist and vulcanologist find love while studying the trigger points of the San Andreas Fault.
Turned into: Genre - Mystery & Suspense; Working Title - It's All Your Fault; Synopsis - I have no idea, the characters started doing things from the get-go. I've got a skip tracer, a good-for-nothing rich kid just cut off from Daddy's money, a cute, trusting vulcanologist working near Mt. Rainier, and a single-parent Native American dad with a just-turned-into-Teenager-from-Hell daughter. No idea how they're going to come together, but I'm hoping they tell me quickly.
Excerpt: It's All Your Fault
Not an excerpt, just something I thought would give my fellow NaNoites a giggle:
I have not written
I can't find a phrase
I'm stuck in a daze
I'm just beginning,
my hands on the keys
just watch my mind freeze
Staring at the blank page before me...
Open up a bloody window!
Can't you see I'm trying to
Create a world here?
Writing - hey it's not a thing for sissies
It's a way to make your head hurt
more than a cosmic migraine!
Feel the blood on my skin
as it's pouring down my forehead
Only I can make it stop
No one else, no one else
Can write the words on my page
Don't I wish I hadn't started?
Never listen to Chris Baty
Today is when the pain beings -
My book is still unwritten.
