All New

I write romance novels. Mostly. But once in a while, I have a crazy idea for a different type of story.

NaNo begins on November 1st and I've been in a bit of a panic, tossing one idea around, then changing my mind and tossing another idea around. But this afternoon, I was having a wonderful lunch with my husband and he told me President Obama had announced we would be sending people to Mars in the next ten years. My husband couldn't remember the exact year announced but knew about when it would happen.

This simple conversation has sparked an idea for a book for me. I love the idea and I'm looking so forward to writing it.

Here is my short synopsis from NaNo:
Title: Clueless in Space

Synopsis:
A routine trip to supply the newly established Mars colony goes horribly wrong...
These are the crew logs from that fateful trip.
I am so jazzed about this story. New idea, new characters, and new genre. Let's hope I can actually do 1667 words a day for the month of November.
