Tap, Tap, Tap...Tappity-Tap-Tap!

I'm writing a book! Okay, so this really isn't a suprise. I've been writing this book for almost 1 1/2 years. But, I'm really writing it! I re-read the first six chapters, found a world of errors, and corrected them. (According to Romance Writers of America and NaNO Writer, you should NEVER do this.) But, I find it helps me remember what I love about my characters.

Want a brief idea about the story?

Matthew Court had big dreams of escaping his life in his one horse town in East Texas. Enrolling into a fancy college in the big city, Matthew cut his ties to his boring small town life, including his highschool sweetheart, Katie McShane, and moved on to bigger and better things. But, his dreams begin to change, and when Matthew receives the biggest surprise of his life, he runs for the hills as quickly as possible. Now, Matthew is back home trying to carve out a life, and pick up the pieces to a romance long lost.

Katie McShane was head over heels in love. But when her long time beau ditches her for the big city life and leaves her alone and heart broken, she's determined to never allow another man to hurt her. Picking up the pieces of her life Katie is faced with tragedy, the sudden death of her father. Suddenly, she's left at the helm of the family business, a bar. Katie has finally managed to create a place for herself when her entire world comes crashing down as Matthew Court walks into her bar and announces he's back for good.

I hope that whet your appetite, just a bit. In case you haven't noticed, this is a form of literature called "Chick Lit". (Otherwise known as Romance.) There's more to the story of Matt and Katie....and they are patiently, and at some times imapatiently, awaiting their story to be told.
