Ooh, thanks for the heads-up on the NaNo goodies. I may get the noveling pen because I'm going to be writing the majority of my novel by hand. Crazy, I know, but I really have no choice as I won't have enough time each night to spend at the computer, though I've found that I can get a lot more writing done with a good old fashioned pen and notebook that I can take anywhere.

As for the genre questions... You know how they say write what you know. I tend to write things in a throwback to the pulp crime novel style. I just love that stuff. I like gangsters and detectives, so that's what I write about. I have no readers so I'm fine with expectations not being met, lol.
