Introductions!

Hey everyone! Sam here. Welcome to my brand new blog, Adventures in Narrative. I'll be blogging, for the most part, about my exciting life as an aspiring writer and my journey to becoming a real, published, and, (hopefully!) paid author. I'll be sharing my success, my failures and and everything in between as well as what I've heard described as my quirky, off-beat sense of humor. I'm going to warn you righ now: if you don't apprecitate sarcasm, I'd steer clear of this blog as sarcastic is my natural state of existance.

Let's start with a little bit about me, shall we? Basically I'm a 23 year old aspiring writer with a day job at Disneyland. Laugh if you must but where else is going to pay me $12 an hour to hang out with my friends, wander around a theme park and only occasionly do any real work? Anyway, I've been writing pretty much all my life but it's only been in the last year or so that I've really gotten serious about it. After pursuing other interests I came to the conclusion that all I really wanted to in life is write. I've participated in National Novel Writing Month (www.nanowrimo.org) for two years running and am currently participating in Script Frenzy (www.scriptfrenzy.org). My most important writing project currently is my novel, Riley Adams: Paranormal Investigator, which is about twenty pages away from a completed first draft. Then its on to re-writes and editing. Fun stuff.

Well I'm off for now. I've got to finish fixing the formatting in my Script Frenzy project. Next time: Script Frenzy, The First Week. Stay tuned!
