Last week’s blog I told you that I would update you more on my NaNoWriMo prep. So let’s start with the first question some of you may have.
What is NaNoWriMo?
National Novel Writing Month is an annual Internet-based creative writing project that takes place during the month of November. Participants attempt to write a 50,000-word manuscript between November 1 and November 30.
I have taken part in their smaller version Camp NaNoWriMo a few times. Lucky for me I started planning in September because the world-building for this new series is a real task.
What have I done so far?
I have the cast of characters planned out already

This week I will introduce you to the cast of Obsidian Vendetta an urban fantasy mystery
novel and book 1 of the gem series.
The main character Avril, a half-fairy with no magical abilities other than a slightly increased life span, ability not to be glamoured or magically coerced.
Talon her partner detective, a gargoyle born in Scottland during the time of Robert the Bruce.
Arabella her best friend for life, a half-Titan, and adopted by Hunter and his wife when Avril and she were orphans at the orphanage.
Hunter the sector chief for PIR Fort Worth, TX, a Titan, and Arabella’s adopted father.
