A novel I hope to finish for NaNoWriMo in November is based in part on autobiographical sources but the protagonists names are all changed or left off altogether in the case of public figures. Cities are reduced to neighbourhoods and if you didn't live where I did, you'd have no idea. The only things unchanged are the cars and all of the cars I've owned or driven or admired in neighbours' driveways are real, as are the motorcycles. The book is aimed at ages 12 and up and will be very family-friendly, taking the main protagonist from age one to age ninety.
