I am soooo happy right now!!
If you would like to be a part of my journey, I am now looking for people to critique my first draft. If you are interested, please let me know!
Here is my blurb:
Meredith
has always been a model student and daughter, but when she loses her father to
cancer, her picture perfect family is shattered. Meredith becomes angry and
numb, locked inside herself. When she goes to college, she meets charming,
handsome Kaden. He begins to help her put the broken pieces of her heart
back together, helping her to live and love again. As their relationship
deepens, Kaden begins to change, hurting her emotionally and physically, rather
than helping her. He isolates her from her friends and family she had just
opened herself up to. Her future, her happiness, and her identity are at stake
if she doesn’t learn to love herself and break the cycle of abuse. Doing this
means that Meredith must give up the man she fell in love with as well as the
man who hurts her, and separating the two is a battle that may well break her
irreparably.
Wahey! Well done Brandi!
ReplyDeleteAhh Brandie that is AWESOME!!
ReplyDeleteDude, I have a character in my NaNoWriMo novel that's named Kaden too! *highfives*
Oh crap! I forgot to add in this part:
ReplyDeleteI'd love to take a look at it...though probably more so next month so I can finish my NaNo, lol
Wow, congrats!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Brandi! And you finished ahead of schedule! YAY!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't really do NaNoWriMo because my book I'm working on is written mostly, I'm working on heavy editing!
AWESOME JOB! I'm sitting at 48K right now so you definitely won at the word war. Boo. But thanks for keeping me so motivated and on track. It was a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!

ReplyDeleteOMG congrats! I've slacked off (with good reason! School)!
ReplyDeleteI would love to read it. My NaNo is about an abusive relationship as well. It sort of reflects my own experience which is making it hard to put into words (thank goodness I saved old AIM conversations and blog entries)!
