Four Books: What They Are, How to Do Them

in-left: 0.25in;">

I am going to be doing my 1st love: writing, because November is NaNoWriMo: National Novel Writing Month, where we each write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. Do go to www.nanowrimo.org. If you’ve always wanted to be a writer, and wanted to find out what it’s like, this is your chance. Sign up, and get going on your pet project. I will be working on finishing a novel I started about 8 months ago about a real historical woman. La Voisin was a French witch of the time of Louis XIV, popularly called “the Sun King”. Everything flourished during his long reign, including scandals, and my main character, Catherine Deschayes Monvoisin, was involved in one of the French court’s worst scandals: le affaire des poisons. Will me luck, everyone. I just hope her spirit will dictate her story to me all month. I’m even willing to get up at insane times of the morning to write this very important story.
