Nano, Yuletide, Writing, Etc

Okay so we're on the final countdown (cue Asia rockin' hard) and I really need to make my decisions about November. I have my final ghost tours this Friday - somehow I whoopsied and I'm doing 3, two "normal" tours and one midnight tour. I don't start working at the Bookshop until Black Friday. Not that this doesn't mean I'll be lazy as before that happens I have Sugarloaf Craft Festival (hopefully!) this Saturday and Anime USA next weekend (where's the schedule, oh, geez).

So this should be interesting. I have Yuletide as always and my Secret Santa for RTH, too. So very interesting. I have a couple ideas to work with, though, and I'm turning as always to you to see if any of you care.

A) Regency romance novel - including a marriage of convenience and misunderstandings
B) Supernatural romance novel - including smut and dysfunction
C) Retold fairy tale - including the Post-Cinderella life of the youngest stepsister
D) Urban fantasy-magic tale - including a secret society and a library

... And I had another idea but damned if I can remember it. Does anyone else have suggestions? I'm open for ideas!

I vote for either B or D! Though I would go with whatever moves you. XD

I'm curious about A, actually! But I'd be curious about whichever; I always find hearing about people's NaNo updates via DW or whatnot to be interesting.

Which story do you have the most connection to? Which one do you feel YOU *have* to tell?

And which one do you think you'd have the most fun writing a shame-free first draft for?

Hopefully you have a project that fits all three! :D

Anything really. I'm still waiting for more of the Supernatural Romance, but you know why that is ;)

Also with regency we can share obsessive research. Although my regency has magic.

And I enjoyed your step-sister short story bit.
