It can be from the POV of the person who has it or from the other person. I want to read about something that deals at least a little with the fear of beginning a relationship with someone who is positive…Doesnt matter whether its a gay or a straight couple. But nothing about third world countries, please.

OK, it’s opinion time, but first, a few caveats:
1) Nobody who is dead or retired. We all love Asimov and Heinlein, but I am trying to find out peoples opinions on recent, current authors
2) No non-genre authors. Please restrict answers to writers of Science Fiction (i.e. no horror, fantasy, or surrealists please).
3) I am not looking for sales figures (you can have a favorite author who is not a best seller and recommend them), so do not justify your answer with “his books sell well”.
That being said, I will provide my personal sample answer:
Simon R. Green: stylistically he is one of the best and most interesting writers in the genre today

its this book, on the cover it has a girl with a long flowy beautiful bright red floor length dress.
christian fiction genre, but is set in historical times (gold rush in california)
it is about a girl sold into prostitution as a girl, and she is a prostitute until a guy comes and buys time with her and then takes her away to marry her because God told him too. she is hard to live with, and doesnt understand much of his way of living but eventually opens up, then they meet some friends (large family with like 7 kids) and they become friends. she keeps leaving him (eventually has sex with his brother to leave) but he keeps taking her back. she cant have a baby and leaves for a while but doesnt go back to prostitution and makes a home for former prostitutes to live and learn skills for the world, then the husbands brother comes and gets her to take her back and she goes, where the husband takes her back, her best friend is married to the brother and all is good, (she evenutally has children with her husband years later)
does anyone know the author or title of this book?!?!?!

I am writing a novel that I would consider to be fantasy. I am writing with 1″ margins, single spaced 12 pt font times new roman. How long would it have to be to be considered a novel?
Would steps would have to be taken to submit to a publisher without an agent?

Next month is NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), and I am hopelessly without a plot. Usually I have some sort of idea laid out, but this year I can’t think of anything interesting.
My genre: Fiction/Fantasy/Sci-Fi
Any suggestions?

So I’m planning on doing ScriptFrenzy this year after all the fun I had doing NaNoWriMo and I just realized I don’t have the first clue about how to write a script. I mean I know what it entails but I don’t know how to do any of the formatting or stage directions. I’ve heard people mention programs for this, can anyone recommend any good ones. Preferably free ones because I don’t know that I’m ever going to write another script and don’t want to spend a ton of money.
