Greetings. I'm Bonnie, a lifelong Napervillian recently relocated to Aurora. This is my first NaNo. I'm really not sure how this will go as I'll be out of the country for the first 13 days of the month. I actually leave on the 31st.

As I look through this site, I'm the only one that I see doing a biography. Actually, it's an auto-biography. As a committed Christian, I have been told many times that I need to get my story, my testimony, down on paper. That's why my working title is "Testimonies." God did so many amazing things in my life as He chased me, calling for me to come to Him. So, this is my chance. A time to just sit down and do it. I envision it as sort of a Chicken Soup for the Soul type format, with a whole bunch of short stories strung together.

I believe my time out of the country will end up yielding more material as I'll be on a two week mission trip to India. I'm joining 5 others to present a Life in the Spirit Seminar to pastor's conferences in 2 different cities in India. I'm stepping out in faith, but way out of my comfort zone as I go to teach to pastors who have much more time in relationship with God than I. It will be an exciting time, and one which, as I said, will ultimately yield more material.

I'm hoping to make it to the kick off, and perhaps a write in or two after I get back. Blessings to all.
