SoCNoC is short for Southern Cross Novel Challenge. It is hosted by the website www.kiwiwriters.org, which is based in New Zealand but accepts writers from around the globe. The challenge takes place in July and the point is to write a 50,000 word novel in 31 days.

My story is going to be historical fiction. Is is about a young girl who is traveling between America and England on a ship when there is a storm and she is thrown overboard. She is rescued by the crew of a different ship, but has developed amnesia. She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or where she was going.

I've decided to drop this challenge and am instead using the plot of Script Frenzy. Maybe I'll try SoCNoC next year.
