Ok, here is another silly question... it says we need the first chapter and the synopsis... does it need a title right now? or could I change that again later if I decide on a better one? Not POSITIVE, Pup, but I'd think a title is probably needed (pretty sure the form asks for a title - it's been ...

As much as I'd be thrilled to win or place, that little voice in the back of my head tells me that it's far more important to encourage others to do their best and to jump in.

I polish the first chap to it's shiny best. Then I work on finishing the rough draft and do a synopsis to that. If I placed I'd be able to have a year to rework.

I put in my vote earlier, but didn't add a note....I plan to enter and work on the novel I started during NaNo....which didn't get past the first few chapters cause I ended up with a boyfriend instead!

Well, I'm planning on being in. I'm working through the beginning stages right now, character sketches and the like, but my boys like the ideas (or they're at least showing interest, which any mom loves) and the plotline is floating around and not floating away. I'm excited and anxious. It's a HUGE...
