<b>What is this?</b><br /><br />This is the novel I wrote for <a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org">NaNoWriMo</a> 2007. Everything on this journal is copyright mine (Jessica Wagstrom), although I'm not sure why anyone would want to steal it, really! (If you don't already know, my regular lj is <span class='ljuser' lj:user='kandigurl' style='white-space: nowrap;'><a href='http://kandigurl.livejournal.com/profile'><img src='http://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif' alt='[info]' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='http://kandigurl.livejournal.com/'><b>kandigurl</b></a></span>.)<br /><br />This is a different novel from what I usually do (which usually involves no plot and lots of llamas), so I'm kind of nervous about it and what people might think about it, hence giving it its own livejournal. I used to think that was kind of a pretentious thing to do, and part of me still does, but it's also a quick and easy way to get feedback, so if you like anything or don't like anything, I'm interested to know! Comment at will. :)<br /><br />At the beginning of this novel, I had a bunch of people provide me with 50 words that were to be the chapter titles, the goal being to somehow work the word or its meaning into the chapter. That went along great until about halfway through, when I actually figured out what was going on for the rest of the book, so I kind of stopped. Which is why some of the chapter titles don't make sense.<br /><br /><b>COMMENTS ARE ENCOURAGED!!</b> I'd be interested to hear what you think chapter-by-chapter, but at the same time, I don't want you to feel forced to comment if you've got nothing to say. As I said, I've never written a book like this before, so I'm curious as to what your thoughts are! (Suggestions, too, if you have any. This is still the rough draft!)<br /><br /><ljr-href url="/users/pepperadventure/13167.html#cutid1" site="http://www.livejournal.com">1.
