It's what I look for in books, but in movies and TV shows, too. If there is not a good story to be told or to be heard, somehow it feels like it's not worth it. (less)

I wanted to write an unconventional love story or romance because I had read so many with the same formula. Then I heard about National Novel Writing Month, a.k.a. NaNoWriMo for those in the know :) , that is, in the month of November you commit to write a novel of about 45,000 words. No self-editing during this process--just forge ahead. I had always thought the story about Rita could be a novel so I grabbed the chance to make it one by writing several thousand words each day during November --and I came out of it with a rough draft of this novel.

Kathy Johncox answered a question about The Age of Miracles:
The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker

Initially I thought something like that, but then I started looking at it as the "coming of age" thing, which Julia has to do at a younger age than most because of the circumstances. Middle school has its own set of obstacles, witness Julia's friends See Full Answer

Stephanie Hi Kathy. I received the book and am very excited. I won't be able to read until the 2nd week of February though. I have a library book to finish first.
