NaNoWriMo is underway. I'm hanging in there--still behind, but plugging away. Yesterday I made real headway and the story is FINALLY coming along (I know where I'm going now--I think). I thought it might be fun to post a teaser just for the heck of it AND I sure would love to see what everyone else it up to. So post a teaser, a paragraph or two, in the comment section below. Oh, and add your genre, too. Just so we can have a clear idea your audience. Check back often so you can read all the other teasers. Have fun and keep on writing. The more we support one another, the more success we ALL will enjoy. Okay, so here's mine: Genre: YA (Second book in the Zombie West Series--unedited of course) Moans and agitated cries intensified with the rising of the new sun. The walking dead grew more active as the day warmed their bones and thawed their warped brains. It had become so common place, like the crowing of a rooster at dawn, that Red hardly noticed the difference until the scratching and digging at the walls became more chaotic, more desperate. "Something’s wrong." She untangled herself from Trace’s arms, waking him in the process, and climbed from their shared bed. "What’s going on?" He anchored himself on one elbow and watched her slip on her boots and tug them into place. "Do you hear it? They’re louder today."

Water. Color. Sound that was music yet was not music. The melody elusive and haunting. Strains familiar and alien. People screaming. Or was that me? Painful burning in my lungs. Can't breathe. Can't breathe. Can't. Breathe.
