NaNo 2015

New year, new NaNo!

But what about Dragonhatched?

Dragonhatched is being severely edited.  I haven't given up on it, but I'm having a rough time, and November is my novel writing breakout session.

This year, it's Shakespeare fanfiction!  Tempestas Imaginaria - a retelling of The Tempest in a modern-day setting.

Simon Prospero is the contented CEO and lead writer for Milan Entertainment - that is, until his brother and co-owner signs a merger with Naples, effectively ousting him from the company.  With just enough from his severance pay and investments to buy up bankrupt and scandal-embroiled Sychorax Studios, Prospero finds himself broke but on the front edge of the quickly developing virtual reality video game market.

With a gifted team of writers and designers in his employ, and the best technology at his fingertips, Prospero has the opportunity to make his fortune, and maybe get a little revenge. If he can get Sychorax's top designer out of jail first.

It may be good.

It may be terrible.

It may just prove once and for all that I know diddly-squat about video games and gaming.

But this story is screaming to be written, and I'm excited to share the raw draft with you.
