NaNo WriMo here I go again.
This is my third year to participate, and I love it.
I love the excitement about meeting my daily writing goals. The motivation and encouragement I get from my NaNo groups, and the thrill watching my story come to life before my eyes in such a short time.
I had my first short story, Saving Angel, published in August of 2012 in the, Wild at Heart anthology. Then I signed my first contract for a full length novel in October of 2012.
February of 2013 my book, Rescued from the Dark, was released, and in December my second short story, The Christmas Contract, will be released in the Christmas Anthology, A Touch of Winter.
This year my NaNo project is a contemporary medical romance called, Saving JT.
When the
Doctors sadly inform her JT’s cancer has progressed and he had only a few weeks
left, Amy Wickers, returns home. After three years she goes to a family who
disowned her, and a man who walked away. Searching for a miracle to save the
most important person in her life. Her son, JT
Amy Wickers
was a single mother struggling to juggle college and an active three year old,
her son, JT. Her life was happy with her best friend, and roommate, Austin. He
had always been there for her since the night he found her hungry, cold and
without anything to her name. Her nightmares still haunt her. The fight,
accusations, then the final blow of being kicked out in the cold with nothing,
and no one to depend on. Now she must
return to the family who disowned her, and the man who walked away to save the
only person important in her life, JT. Without a small miracle, he’ll die and
they hold the key she needs to save him. She’s willing to do anything, even beg
the ones who slammed the door on her if it meant her son would have a future.
I'm also working on my Young Adult, If I Knew Then.
I only have a few chapters left, then it's off to the publisher with that one.
Angel dreamed of a life of freedom. One filled with love
that didn’t come with a price. She hid
her pain and bruises until Jax entered her life. Can he give her what she needs
to let go of the past or will he leave her with a bigger challenge that would
change her future?
Angel fought to keep her family safe from the evil that
threatened to destroy her. She made sure she was always the one in front of her
sisters when her Mother yielded her wrath. Keeping the danger that surrounded
them a secret she lived a lie that everyone believed, except for one. He was
her only source of happiness until one day he was gone. With nothing left, and
no one to turn to, she must outrun her past, and overcome the secret that she
fights to hide, before her Mother destroys everything she has left to hold on
to.
Wish me luck, because I will need it. I will post excerpts through the month so stop back by and cheer me on. : )
Thanks for stopping by.
