sermocinareSo, yes, I finally have an idea as to what my NaNoWriMo novel is going to be about. Go me - that's a lot better than last year, when I had only the faintest idea of a plot.
Anyway, it's going to be a sort of Cold Case (as in the TV show), but the case will be very, very cold. There's going to be a parallel narrative, one telling the story of the murder of a Neanderthal woman, and the other telling about the paleontologists who unearth her and speculate on who she was and how she was killed.
Combining work and play here, yes *g*. But it's a fairly straightforeward plot (my last one was too complicated), I know a fair bit about the subject matter, and I love "Cold Case". So maybe I'll actually be able to finish this one, even if it takes longer than 30 days.
