The Healing Gift -Synopsis-
In a world where the main classes are all about summoning, fortune-telling, and magic; where a letter in your name can mean the difference between success and failure and healing is considered the greatest gift amongst all the pain, some fight to survive.

Zan, a girl in her 12th year, struggles to live. People around her hate her just because of her name and title. Her powerful gift does nothing to help that, but gives nothing to defend herself with. And with her power, a mysterious force is at work, plaguing her conscience, forcing her to the brink.

She has to succeed, her life depends on it. But how can she when everything seems set again
These Dreams Run - Chapter 1CHAPTER ONE

Corleanne High wasn't, and never had been, a 'looker'. Tired, slumping mesh fences measured out the perimeter of its grounds, and the once proud, grand white front with its pillars and steps were a sad and sorry affair. The ribbed, Romanised pillars were blackened from the fumes of passing cars and tobacco, yellowed at the bases with foul-smelling stale urine. The school motto, Ex uno disce omnes – From one person, learn all people – was hidden beneath years of pigeon scum, the words barely showing. The stately stairs leading to the huge, double-doors which marked the entrance to the school were worn and withered with t
NaNoWriMo Synopsis: Iris Sunset

Sacrifice: Chapter TwoChapter Two

I can tell you the truth behind your parents' deaths.
They died. Isn't that all that matters? They're dead and they're not coming back. That's the harsh truth of life. If you're alive, you will be dead someday. It seems sometimes that it'll be in the distant future, but often quite close. Too close for you to imagine. What did happen to my parents? A murder? Drowning? Hanging? Electrocution? Maybe even suicide?
Stop that, I tell myself. It's no use. They're dead, and there's nothing you can do about it other than sulk.
The tears find me again. The officer must be used to it, because he doesn't comment. Five minutes pass - or i

The God Trials - NaNoWriMo Synopsis 2011

:icona-fiery-boom:

How far is too far to find the truth?

Arcturus' hard work has finally paid off; he has passed the difficult God Trials and received Godhood. As a God, he has the ability alongside other Gods to control life, death, and the very fates of the countless worlds. His life of famine and poverty is permanently over with his new position.

But his own God Trials have only begun.

All is well until Arcturus sees that a foolish idea is taken to heart by even the wisest of Gods. It gets worse with each promotion he receives. Then he sees a mass of world purgings, genocides, and disasters heaped upon Earth, a planet that is yet to even start construction.

He is determined to know why such actions are permitted, and goes against all he knows to learn the truth.

Arcturus doesn't expect an answer, let alone the one he receives. Now he must work to set things right against all odds, threats, and lies. Little does he know that everyone is watching, and that his work will cause waves across generations and races.

I actually just finished NaNoWriMo on Monday, but then I saw this contest. A little extra fun doesn't hurt! =D

This is the first book in my manuscript. Now to just finish up the third and I can synchronize my revisions and new drafts!

Strange, I thought I commented on this...
Anyway, I think your NaNoWriMo novel sounds so cool! It's an interesting topic, to be a god that controls life and death of beings. I'd love to read it! :D
The banner is done very well too, it seems to fit based on the brief synopsis.
