I know I'm a little late on this, but between writing, feeding my video game addiction, and working for Sears during the Black Friday season, things have been a little busy. I'm Apple Haggis, and this has been my third year participating in and winning NaNo. I was introduced to the whole affair by ThePiratess in 2009, and plan on being an active participant for as long as I have fingers to type with.

My story this year was a zomcom about a very boring accountant who is accidentally raised back from the dead by a very well-meaning voodoo priest in New Orleans. Hijinks ensue when Mortimer (Mort for short) takes a job as a cab operator (since he's technically an illegal citizen) and winds up as his resurrector's getaway driver in a series of misadventures including loitering vampires, rock-and-roll werewolves, ghosts in denial, and an evil scheme to turn Mardis Gras into a zombie revolution.

Also, I actually live in Lafayette, IN, but my ML here this year left me awfully lacking, so ThePiratess twisted my arm to join up with her region. Hope no one minds the intrusion.
