Introducing My NaNoWriMo Novel…

NaNoWriMo is just around the corner…

and I am so excited! This will only be my second NaNo and I am ready to make a better go at it than last year. You can see how my 2018 NaNo wentย in these posts here.

*rubs hands together* What better way to kick-off this year’s National Novel Writing Month than to introduce what I’m writing? I’m super excited to talk with you all a bit about my novel. My email subscribers probably know a bit about this book already (join the club here!), and I can’t wait to show you all the things!

 

It’s no secret that I’ve been writing a superhero novel titledย Embers.ย So now that we’ve established that, keep scrolling for more info about Embers; cover, blurb, aesthetics, etc. ๐Ÿ™‚

 

|The Cover|

I am no cover designer, just warning you…

|The Blurb|

 

What if our generation grew up in a world where superhumans were commonplace? What if these superhumans werenโ€™t considered heroes?

Humans with superpowers are running rampant around the United States, some demolishing whole cities. The citizens demand retaliation. The government answers with the Superhuman Detainment Facility, or SDF. To run free as a superhuman is now illegal.ย 

All that news seems distant. But when Scarlett Marley has a run-in with a super with fire powers, things are suddenly close to home.

But the thing is, she retained no burns from the accident.

Just a fire-like glow flickering in her eyes.

And two months later when fire suddenly spits from her hands, her life has become that of a criminal. She is transferred to the SDF.

Her life seems lost, but a chance comes that could get her back everything she wanted.ย 

She and four other teen supers are given an assignment to find one of the largest gangs of supers in the rubble remains of Chicago city. The reward? They are to be the first to receive the experimental treatment to remove superpowers from their bodies.

But this gang and their leader, Rez, arenโ€™t what the media always says. Things are flipped on its head, and Scarlett questions everything she was ever told.

Now it comes down to thisโ€ฆ

Is she willing to betray newfound friends in exchange for the normal life she thinks desperately wants back?

 

 

|Aesthetics|

Some of you have already seen some of these character aesthetics/collages, but here’s all of the goodness in one place. ๐Ÿ˜‰

First, of course, the main character…

These are not all the character, of course. But if I let myself go I’d be making collages and aesthetics all day and I don’t want to overwhelm you. ๐Ÿ˜‰

 

Soooo yeah…that’s pretty much it. ๐Ÿ™‚ I hope you enjoyed learning a bit more about Embers. Now it’s your turn! I’d love to hear about what you’re writing for NaNoWriMo!

    This is the first time I’ve seen a proper blurb for this story and it sounds even more amazing! Your aesthetics are super pretty (as always!) and I have a feeling Nadia and Ares are going to be my favourite characters, just based on their collages ๐Ÿ™‚
