It's November 7, and after almost one week of daily writing, I am 37,133 words away from my goal of 50,000 words in one month!!
Here's the synopsis of my novel in process...
Temporary Time
Twenty-year-old Tris Savoy is consumed with studying the past. From fencing lessons at the age of ten, a college major immersed in medieval politics and history, to learning the dying language of Occitan, the events that happened eight hundred years before her birth are sometimes more real to her than her present. Her one, unattainable wish is to someday meet her namesake: Beatrice of Savoy. When a fellow student asks her for help with a secretive project, she agrees, and is given the staggering opportunity to enter the era she’s studied her entire life…for one hundred and eighty minutes. But on arrival, she’s a witness to Beatrice’s brutal murder and coerced into a dangerous deception. When the three-hour time limit expires and there’s no sign of help, she must commit to her role as the countess to survive, even if her potential killer lurks inside the castle.
A combination of the book Timeline, TV
show Sliders, and the movie Stargate.
Fingers crossed I can keep up the pace and follow my detailed outline.

Guest Blogger at My Dog Ate My Manuscript...and other excuses that keep me from writing.
Today I'm a guest at my friend and fellow writer, N. Gemini Sasson's blog where I talk about how to begin researching your genealogy.
