@jenwriter17 Hey there!Β I’m working on some law school assignments, so I can chat for a bit.
How’s it going?Β What are you working on?Β (Are you doing NaNoWriMo?)
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
November 11, 2019 at 4:16 pm #79155Hi! Okay, awesome! π
Pretty good. You? Yes, I’m doing NaNo; that’s what I’m working on now.
I'm a Kapeefer 'TIL WE'RE OLD AND GREY!
www.jennaterese.comNovember 11, 2019 at 4:19 pm #79156November 11, 2019 at 4:38 pm #79157Here’s the blurb for it:
What if our generation grew up in a world were superhumans were commonplace? What if these superhumans werenβt considered heroes?
Humans with superpowers are running rampant around the United States, demolishing whole cities. The citizens demand retaliation. The government answers with the Superhuman Detainment Facility, or SDF. To run around free as a superhuman is now illegal.Β
All that news seems distant. But when Scarlett Marley has a run-in with a super with fire powers, things are suddenly close to home.
But the thing is, she retained no burns from the accident.
Just a fire-like glow flickering in her eyes.
And two months later when fire suddenly spits from her hands, her life has become one of a criminal. She is transferred to the SDF.
Life seems lost, but a chance comes that could get her back everything she wanted.Β
Her and four other teen supers are given an assignment to find one of the largest gangs of supers in the rubble remains of Rapid City, South Dakota. The reward? Theyβre to be the first to receive the experimental treatment to remove superpowers from their bodies.
But this gang and their leader, Rez, arenβt what the media say. Things are flipped on its head, and Scarlett questions everything she was ever told.
Now it comes down to thisβ¦
Is she willing to betray newfound friends in exchange for the normal life she desperately wants back?

www.jennaterese.comNovember 11, 2019 at 4:56 pm #79158@jenwriter17 Sounds pretty cool. πΒ What do you think your decision would be if you were in your heroine’s place?
My fiction writing is coming along well, if at a painstakingly slow pace. πΒ I’ve been hoping to do some word wars this month with all you NaNo people to see if I can pick up some speed.
Sadly, I do have to go now, and prepare dinner.Β I really hope to talk to you again soon!!

November 11, 2019 at 5:00 pm #79159@rochellaine Thanks! Ooh, good question…I would say that I would stick with the new friends that I was sent to betray, since I’d found out that the people I was told were the bad guys were actually good.
Well, slow progress is still progress. π Yes, word warring with you sometime would be fun!
Okay, bye! Same here! π

www.jennaterese.comNovember 11, 2019 at 8:25 pm #79163I have some work to do now but I can squeeze out some time to chat. Otherwise I’m just thinking about QOD. Mostly the way it works is that I imagine how the scenes should play out in my head before I go home to write them. π
How’s your writing going? π
November 11, 2019 at 8:32 pm #79164November 11, 2019 at 8:33 pm #79165Imagining scenes is a great outlining technique. π
My writing is…having it’s ups and downs. The first week of NaNo was super great, but this second week is a little rough. I’m still enjoying writing this story though. π

Kapeefer til we're old and greyNovember 11, 2019 at 8:43 pm #79168Haha. But it has its disadvantages I suppose. I was stuck at a certain part for the longest time simply because I could not envision how the conversation should proceed and allow me to get from Point A to B.
Good to know that you’re enjoying your NaNo. Your premise is very interesting. π
Hello. What are you working on?
