Day 1 - Have you participated in NaNoWriMo before? If so, which years and what end result? If not (or even if so, for that matter), what’s your connection to writing? Why do you want to participate this year?

Day 2 - What’s the title of your story? Why did you choose the name you did?

Day 3 - Pick one of your female characters. Introduce your readers to her, from her point of view and her words only.

Day 1:  I participated last year and didn’t win, but I did manage to finish the story and multiple drafts enough to submit it to a few places to hopefully get published.

Day 2: Hunters 2: Escaping the Chapter

We’re sticking with stories and book themed ideas because the stories focus around a character we created called The Storyteller and it all circles around him, sorta ^_~

Day 3:  Introductions are stupid and I’m not really interested.  Just, get out of my face ok?  …. no I’m not answering personal questions, why do you care anyway?  No, I am not talking about my past or my choice in clothing.  Go away.  …. Fine.  It’s Cyn.  That’s my name.  No, it’s not short for anything.  Piss off.

So my lovely partner here answered the first three questions about our joint story.  I’m going to do the same with our joint story AND my own story because I can  :)

1.  I participated last year but I didn’t win.  However, Nano was a great tool for me to work out the kinks in my story and get it where it is now.  I’ve actually sent “Treat Me Kindly” off to publishers, and am awaiting a response.  This year, however, I hope to win Nano  :)

2.  Joint story:  The Hunters (overall).  My partner and I actually have SEVEN books planned.  We got the first one done already.  The one we’re doing for Nano is called, The Hunters: Escaping the Chapter.

My New Story:  Double H

3. Joint story:  Oh my, what fascinating human device is this?  Do I just… continue to type to communicate with… OH!  It seems to be working!  Zach, look, I am communicating to the world of humans!  Hi!  Can you see me waving to you?  Probably not… oh!  There is a camera, Zach says, but I do not know how to use this device.  My name is Mira!  I am living at the Hunters with my wonderful new friends!  I really like your world, so far.  You have such cute dresses and skirts, and polka dots and ice cream!  We don’t have things like this in my home.  Where am I from, you ask?  The Demon World!  Can’t you tell from my ears and tail?  Oh… Zach says you can’t see those unless if I turn on the camera device.

Well… Cyn wants to use the computer, so I best be going.  She gets grumpy, unless if she’s around Haven.  Who’s Haven?  Oh!  I believe you would call him Cyn’s boyfrie- ACK!  OW!  STOP PULLING MY EAR, CYN, THAT HURTS!!!

My New Story:  Hello.  My name is Esther Peterson.  I am Gable’s mother.  We are here visiting for the week, but it seems like my son is going through a rather troubling time.  His… well… I suppose Avery is more than a friend, now isn’t he?  It turns out my son is gay.  He didn’t tell me or his father about this, we had to find out at the police station by accident when we went with him to talk about his missing friend – boyfriend that’s right, that’s right, Avery is his boyfriend.  My poor son was under the impression that we would be upset with him about Avery.  The only thing I’m upset about is that we’ve missed so much time getting to know him.  His entire college career he’s been keeping this secret!  I could have made the young man a pot roast and some apple pie!  With him missing, I might never get that chance.  I do hope the police find him soon, I am looking forward to making Avery a nice, homecooked meal.
