A FIRST NOVEL

As November comes to a close, I am here to shout "I have finished the 50,000+ word requirement for National Novel Writing Month." Now come the difficult steps: revision, editing, and proofreading, as well as searching for a more appropriate title. As I move into this process, I find myself getting excited about the prospect of having a completed project.


 


Right now, as I leave the "I'm finished with my worst first draft" phase and enter the "Must revise! Must edit!" phase, I am focused on the following as the premise of my story: 

When Beth loses her son as a casualty of war and her husband as a casualty of infidelity, she struggles to pull herself together and find meaning for her life.

With the close of November and the beginning of December, I will be focusing on blogging. Join me for the Sunday Edition where I hope to post  a new story, poem, or view on life every Sunday.
