OK Budding Novelists (yes, I know some of you are already experienced and PUBLISHED novelists, but perhaps your breasts are budding or your marigolds are budding, you get my drift)... HERE WE GO!

In the order of those who responded to Friday’s BLOGGER CHALLENGE blog (http://skirt.com/node/21028), we will each take a chapter during the coming weeks and build our very own Skirt!romance extraordinaire! And, in honor of Kdanica's observation, we will also add to our character list a feminist best friend of the, oh let's say, Male Lead. (Kdanica, I'm adding you to the author lineup, so lemme know if you will join our phillistinian ranks and poke fun at life for awhile.)

I'll take Week One of Fiction Fridays and the order from there will be: Sarah, Charlene, Kim, Renee, Elizabeth, Kdanica, Merci, Vanessa, Jodene and Amy. (I can just IMAGINE Amy's TOTALLY RAWKING conclusion!)

Post on your own blog on the appropriate Friday, entitle it FICTION FRIDAY and provide links to the preceding chapters.

Have fun! Eleven Fridays from now, we'll have a novel! :-)
