Inserting into an audit table using a PRE-INSERT - Is it possible?

I wish to write a trigger that will block an insert given certain conditions yet record that bad row to an audit table....how can i do that if i raise a fatal exception which i need to block the insert? If I do that how can the bad row insert into the audit table ever be commited?
