Actually, my Mom chose life… (Thank you, Mama!)
Not sure why I haven’t posted about this yet.
Nearly two years ago, I participated in the 2008 National Novel Writing Month challenge of writing a 50,000 word novel during November. Since then, I’ve been working off and on editing the novel I wrote, and also had some extremely useful help from Lydia Pillitiere (thanks to HSA). The novel wouldn’t have matured as much as it did without her help (it’s definitely not close to being the next Great American Classic… but it is much better than what it was at first draft). It’s always a good thing to have a fresh mind and a new pair of eyes offering critique for a work.
This past April, I utilized a round-trip drive from South Carolina to Arizona (4500+ miles) to finish the semi-final draft. Several weeks and proof copies later, the novel was completed, published, and made available on Amazon.com (through CreateSpace).
So go check it out on Amazon! If you’re inclined to buy it, I’ll be doubly-grateful to you if you decide to do so from my CreateSpace store. My royalties are better (over double, actually) from that outlet. 
Thanks!
