I tried to be smart at the begginning and write everything in present tense but somewhere along the line changed without even noticing it, to past tense; now it's becoming a little nightmare to correct. I have written 32k and I have no idea where it happened.
Im trying to write a chicklit with a hint of paranormal because I'm a bit fed up that all the heroins at the moment are teenagers or in their early 20's, so I've created a character who is going to kick ass (even though she doesn't know it yet)and she is 30. A mixture of Bridget Jones Diary and Sookie stackhouse mysteries.
The story is based in the northeast of Scotland, so the main character is scottish (british), this is maybe why some of my grammar mistakes, I think it's the british way...for example favourite is the british way of spelling it, like colour and mum. I'm not really sure...I'll post the rest of the chapter so you can have a look.

Don't worry about your British spelling - mine is full of it. Us Brits love our extra U's - coloUr, honoUr, favoUrite. Oh and also S's instead of Z's - realiSe, sympathiSe, etc etc All good from where I'm standing x

Left a comment.
right, i've given up the nanowrimo nonsense, since I can't sit down in peace and quite long enough to write the daily amount of words and since i'm well behind, I decided to do it at my own time. That way I get feedback from you guys.http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/3...
