Can’t believe this is my fourth NaNoWriMo! I have the month of November to write a new novel. This one is harder – I have been doing a lot of research and I still have a lot of questions, but I need to get started writing and I’ll just have to wing it on a few things.

This novel will be historical fiction, based on the period in America right after World war II ends. It starts in a small town in Missouri, goes to Iowa for a short time, and ends up in Tennessee. Its about a young music teacher who meets a guy in the Army and falls in love. There are problems, of course. His tour of duty is ending and he is going back to Tennessee. She comes from a strict Lutheran home and his family are all Southern Baptists. She does not believe in drinking and cursing,but his family does a lot of both. She has a hard time adapting to southern ways.Can love overcome different religious beliefs?
