To get involved in National Novel Writing Month or not to get involved, that is the question.
Hmm, I mean it would be a great way to give myself a deadline for getting at least 50,000+ words in by the time November is up, but I really don't understand how to use it so that could be a problem. Plus if I don't get it done on time I'm gonna be upset with myself ! I have almost 5,500 words complete and a conundrum or editing to accomplish before my deadline of January 1st
That is how long I'm giving myself, in which I hope to have the novel done and have the first round of editing done before I send it out to Beta readers. (Early February) while the book cover is being complete. Then I will take in all the criticism and critique and tweak the story to fit what my readers believe will help me produce an amazing story! It will be on sale Early March 2014.
I know a lot of good authors are publishing novels around that time, so I will be doing heavy research not to have my release on the same day as theirs because well you're more likely to go for a novel where you've already read what that author can produce then going for a no name author.
Anyhow, midterms are calling my names as well as my Dunkin Donuts coffee. It's going to be a very looonnnnggg night. I am hoping to accomplish some more writing tonight hopefully break 6,500 words.

An Epiphany! has occurred
I't official, and I know I think I say this like every other post, but I have such a clear concise idea going on. And it is NOTHING like I've read before.
I've got some twists up my sleeve :)
So here I go sitting on my Mac until Revenge and Drop Dead Diva come on later with my key board clicking.
This is probably the roughest rough draft I've ever written in my life and is going to need so much editing because the beginning was going in a different direction, but I am super excited and cant wait to figure out an awesome title, because believe me a kick ass book needs a kick ass title!
Stay tuned early March 2014 my New Adult book will be coming out!

I'm the WORST at updating!
So I got from updating everyday to not updating for like over a month and for that I am truly sorry to whoever reads my blog.
I am still trying to learn how to work this website and complete redesign it into something amazing. Which I will be doing all day today! Please I used to be all about HTML ( I had the coolest Myspace's) and all I have to do is remember how to do it! Hopefully it wont be do hard.
Anyway I had an epiphany and know where I'm taking this book. I crossed out so many ideas that I didn't want to do anymore, but now I have a concept I love that it different. I mean in the New Adult genre I haven't read this concept before.
So bear with me while I work on it and get through this.
I can assure you I have great thing to come in 2014!
The cover will be done in February by the amazing Sarah from okaycreations.com and I seriously cannot wait to work with her. If you've never heard of her, check out her website. I'm sure you've read one of the books she had designed.
I'm off to work work work. Having today off from work I'm going into hermit mode with Dunkin Donuts and probably an entire bottle of Pepsi!
Any who I am super excited to write this novel and cannot wait to get it out there, so please be patient, and don't mind the site if I start changing things and get the HTML completely wrong and things start to look crazy!
