STORYTELLER

Sarah Marsden is prepared to rock NaNoWriMo this year. With tormented yet charming heroes, a fantastic magical world, and a thrilling sword & sorcery plot, she’s sure her novel will be amazing. She writes through the night, fighting exhaustion, until the words on the screen start to blur. Until she closes her eyes, just for a second… and wakes up in the fantasy world of her novel.

Unsure if she’s dreaming, hallucinating from lack of sleep, or if she finally lost it, Sarah figures her best course of action is to covertly follow her heroes around, watching her story unfold and maybe picking up a few new ideas along the way. But then her characters start going off script. They’re not talking to the right people, they’re not solving the mystery — they’re just screwing everything up!

Sarah is well aware of what will happen if the villain wins, so she takes things into her own hands, teaming up with the heroes so she can secretly keep them on the right track. The heroes are the only ones who can save the world, but she’s the only one with the knowledge to guide them. And she must do so without letting them discover who she is, or that they’re all just characters in her story.

This year’s NaNoWriMo is definitely going to be one to remember.
