I feel late commenting, but I hope your NaNo project is going well.

I participate in NaNo for almost 9 years now. I just finished my 2019 project which is a dystopian and follows a brother and a sister who are scavengers in this futuristic world. During a salvage mission to one of the ‘ancient’ cities they uncover a secret underground laboratory and a girl in a cryogenic tank. They awake the girl and find themselves in more trouble than expected. The story turns into a journey across the new wilderness that has taken route in this future. The girl has amnesia but is aptly skilled in combat and weaponry, and they eventually discover she’s been genetically modified and enhanced (something that has since become illegal in the future). There is a confrontation with her ‘descendant’ family where they uncover a mad scheme to create super soldiers and world domination. In the end, the girl chooses the brother and sister over her family and accepts her new home.

I have another two books planned in this world, each from a different perspective of groups/class system. The other two are more coming of age stories while this one is defiantly more adventure based.

Hi Everyone! I’m very excited to be part of Crystal Peak Publishing. My short story based off the Little Mermaid for the Folklore Retelling will be my first publication ever! I am currently seeking representation for a YA novel about ghost hunters, psychics and the supernatural/paranormal. I’ve only just started, so still a little hesitant on sending queries out. Other than that, I have a number of other manuscripts on the go, just finished a YA fantasy for Camp NaNo, and there’s a pile from previous NaNoWriMo’s that call to me to come back and edit at night.
