Camp NaNoWriMo 2023

What has been happening in my writing world? I decided to give Camp NaNoWriMo a shot and get my story finished for the holiday anthology. I am loving how the story is coming along so far. I set my word count goal for 15K. I am currently at almost 6K. 

How about a little info. about the story...

My story is called Christmas Prey. We can write any genre as long as it is set during the holidays, so of course mine is crime fiction. Kenna Donovan decides to stay home while her parents go to a party and her brother is out with friends. She later regrets that decision when an intruder has her trapped in her own home with no way out.

The story isn't due until October but I will definitely have it finished by then. I am also working on The Blakes series.  I will update ya'll on my writing again soon. Take care and Happy Writing!!!!

Book ten of the year is:

Can they two of them solve one of the biggest cases Resolute has ever seen? I loved this book so much! A page turner from the first sentence!!!


And finally book eleven:
