Ready, Set, WRITE!!

It is midway through October and I can scarcely contain myself with waiting for November. Why? November is National Novel Writing Month & yearly I challenge myself to write a 50,000 word manuscript in 30 days. Last year I made just over 30,000 words & was pretty damn proud of myself.


This year, I am planning to start a novel that has been " living" in my mind for at least years.  Here is a quick synopsis:


A young {not yet reached her 30th birthday} Episcopal priest fresh out of seminary takes an old, historical parish in the northern Virginia mountains. No more than two months into her first year as a rector, she encounters the dead body of her Senior Warden lying face-down in a pool of blood in the church's sacristy.


Who killed him? And why would anyone WANT to kill him? Megan+, channels her inner Sherlock Holmes to find out who committed the murder. When some townspeople start gossiping, Megan knows she must solve the mystery in order to clear her name.


This shall be FUN to write.
