I agree with you: in Stoker's novel, Dracula is just a monster... but perhaps even Bram Stoker didn't really understand everything about the character he created! My re-interpretation of the classic, "Dracula, My Love," is due out from HarperCollins next summer. It reveals the untold story of heroine Mina Harker's passionate, scandalous romance with Dracula--a fascinating, charismatic vampire with a heart and soul, who struggles against the evil within him, and would do anything to win the heart of the woman he loves. For more info about "Dracula, My Love" or my other novels, please visit my website at www.syriejames.com. Enjoy the holidays, and happy reading! Hi Dana,

I am not really that far ahead (only 158 words as of this writing), but I actually was able to get ahead by a little bit. I was able to catch up over the weekend after all.

My previous book was not a NaNo book. I wrote it before NaNo was around to help me out! Feel free to talk with me about Lulu, which I used to publish the book. My experience was great, and I highly recommend it. Hi LeeAnn. Thanks for your comments. My previous book was not a NaNo book. I wrote it before NaNo was around to help me out!

I've never been able to get into the "classics." I think it is a remnant of rebellion left from high school when I hated to be told what to read. I know I should try them out know that I am old enough to truly appreciate what they have to say, but it seems there is always great YA lit calling me in the other direction. I'm also impressed by your ability to take grad courses while you are reading and reviewing all the literature AND participating in nanowrimo. Is your book, A Question of Honor, a previous nano book? I am attempting nano for the first time this year. Depending on how I feel about the finished product, I may like to chat with you about how to self publish. Good luck in catching up with your totals. I took the day off yesterday to shop with my mom, so I am getting behind as well! Dana,
