So I realized I actually am surprisingly on schedule for this year's NaNoWriMo so I went ahead and posted the first chapter on my blog if you want a read. Enjoy - chiealeman.com/nanowrimo-beauty-in-the-remnants-excerpt/The story is an M/M romance: Beauty in the Remnants (working title) The story is in the broken pieces. Beauty is in the remnants.Mike D’Amico has worked at The Grind coffee shop for nearly fifteen years. For nearly that long, he’s been desired by men for his statuesque beauty. With thirty around the corner, Mike begins to reevaluate his life. Can he be more than just a pretty face? Marshall Guidry is a realist. Injured severely in a car accident when he was fifteen, he knows what he is–a nerdy, gay man with a limp in badly need of a second hip replacement–but he’s still more interested in anonymous casual sex–even if it’s not always easy to come by–than a relationship. Until he meets Mike and takes him home. Not just one night, but two, then three. . . . Soon, Marshall discovers he’s letting his guard down, and his time spent with Mike is becoming about more than just sex. Together, the two men embark on a journey of self discovery in order to overcome the shadows of their pasts and carve out a new future. Genre: Contemporary M/M Erotic Romance Length: Novel

Yay! You are publishing it Ximena! I have to agree with Curran on the title to be honest. It's not a bad one, but it's too romance novel-y for a M-M story...

OK, well, I won't decide on a final title until it's finished, and I don't even have the first draft completed yet. But I'll keep that in mind.
