The Plot

In case you were wondering what the plot of my story is (several people have asked), here it is.

It is about a girl in college who's father was adopted as a baby.  She decides she wants to know who her father's biological parents are so she researches and finds the mother.  The old woman is living in a nursing home close to where her parents live.  She decides to go meet her, but is afraid to tell her who she is, so she comes up with a story that she is writing a paper for her English class about the 1950s and she needs a first hand account.  Through a series of flashbacks you see the old woman's life in high school and all the decisions she made leading up to giving her baby away, along with the emotional and social repercussions of that decision.



As a totally random side note. I took a typing test to see how fast I can type now.  57 wpm.  That is up from 43 before I started November.  Pretty awesome.

Here are my stats from the contest.  (just for fun)

  2. Also, how did you get that picture of your stats? I'd love to have mine to save, but I can't figure out how you did it!

  3. Sadly she is not pregnant yet. I'm almost there. I'm still working on a transition into that. And as for the stats I just did a print screen of it. (Command + shift + 4 and then you can draw a box around it. And it will show up as an icon on your desktop)

  5. NICE. Thanks for the tip. I'll probably write about my experience with the NANO as well, someday.
