FINALLY - I've finished the 4th draft of my novel. The working title: "With a Little Help..." Kate, my leading lady, is a Beatles fan. Of course she is. She's a teenager in the 1960s.
Poor Kate. After Thanksgiving, in her junior year, her mom and stepdad have decided to move. Junior year? And she has to change schools?
The story begins in December 1967 and ends on the first day of Kate's senior year, September 1968.
No one has read my story yet. It's my mission now to find a few folks who are interested to read all or part of the book. If I receive comments after their read, I'll know what to work on in draft #5.
One afternoon, a few weeks ago, I realized my novel is not just fiction. Its genre is "historical fiction." Strange, I felt the past was the present, a teenager again, as I worked on the book.
