Packing time!
Camp NaNoWriMo is approaching quickly.
*Dust latest chapters written,
*Sharpen a few ideas,
*Grab the notebook where you wrote down all those neat expressions you plan on using,
*Brush up on your grammar and style.
We have 5 days left to decide what to write, how much to write and who to share it with (our cabin).
My plan is to keep working on the Carnal Masquerade, a story I started at Camp in April, and my goal is to write 10,000 words.
Below you can find the synopsis and an excerpt.
Let the writing begin… in 5 days, in 5 days!! I still have a lot of packing to do till then. ;)

Carnal Masquerade
Synopsis:
Carnal lust, secret luxuries, and dangerous games of betrayal and revenge.
Excerpt:
Alexandra looked around the living-room, holding her mask between her fingers, while the middle-aged director blabbered on and on about his most recent escapades.
At the back, sinking in a corner sofa, trying to look upbeat but sulking like a pre-teen was a judge of the Supreme Court. At the buffet, the rising star of a new generation of politicians chatted with a half-naked woman, who was wearing what seemed to be a toga type of vest. In the veranda, with a stunning view over the whole city, was a very married Senator who vowed before an inquiry committee he had never had sex with a certain female assistant while in office, and he wasn't lying; he had sex with a male assistant. The room was packed with the country’s crème de la crème.
Present were also several multimillionaires of Arab countries, some of notable royal families, and a few obscure entrepreneurs from Eastern Europe.
