in God we trust

I just took a second stab at what I feel is the most important chapter in this series. When I wrote the first draft of this all of those years ago I feel I missed a critical plot point that subsequently missed the rationale for  major occurrence earlier in this tale. I think I have it covered now.


I'm gonna be smart with this chapter. I'm going to sit on it for a day and reread it tomorrow. I'm going to take away what is unnecessary and add stuff where I need it. And then I'll move on to the next chapter which will put me half way through this last volume.


Well, I hope that your readers are having a wonderful weekend.


until tomorrow...

day of rest

I had a busy and stressful week at work and I'm taking a day off from writing today. I'm half way through the 4th chapter and I will finish it and possibly the 5th chapter tomorrow. It is a good bet that the final chapter of this series hits Smashwords next weekend. Keep your fingers crossed.


I've done a TON and I do mean a ton of brainstorming on writing projects moving forward and I am so excited that I can barely stand myself. I'm putting together some templates, charts and other data like that. One thing that I've learned from Children is that it is VITAL to have character, place and event information available when you need it. There is nothing words than having to break storytelling momentum because you have to research info on a past character, scene or other vital stuff.


Anyway, keep peeking in to your favorite downloading sites as I will be publishing new covers to the first 6 episodes of Children.


Until tomorrow...

Told Ya

Did a final write up of the first chapter of Whirlwind just now. I like it. I like it a lot. Just like I've been telling you guys over the past few post that I'm trying to try everything together like a knot. Remember, I wrote the very first draft of this thing nearly 6 years ago now. So far, however, it's coming together nicely. I'm moving on to the next POV tomorrow.


On the other front, I got a lot of brainstorming done in the wee hours of the morning while the majority of most civilized folks in the Eastern time zone slept. It felt great. I had a ball. I'm doing that again tonight.


Until tomorrow...

Last call...

I finished the 1st chapter of whirlwind. Again, this volume may take a short while 2 get 2 u guys hands than the last 3 have. Im trying 2 make sure all ends (that i want to) tie together in a logical way. There was a lot of plotting in this and some things changed in my mind along the way. 

Until 2morrow

Stormin

Sat was about brainstormin, well 2 day its about old fashioned stormin stormin. We had a HUGE downpour at work.

Not a lot 2 report otherwise as everything else remains about where i left it yesterday. 

Tons of downloads pouring in 4 Tempest Rising n the other books n that series.

I will start episode 9 mon after a goodnight sleep 2 night.

Lots of good ideas going through my head this weekend 4 my fiction moving forward. After talking bout writing 4 nearly 2 decades n not doing so, i wish u guys could know how excited about this coming chapter n my life.

Finally, i noticed a goof of my upload of Tempest 2 google books. Ill get that cleaned up 2 nite.

Until 2morrow...

Brain Storming

Tempest Rising had a wondrous start on Smashwords just like the last half dozen titles before it. I hope that u guys are enjoying reading the story as much as I did putting it out there.


There is one more to go.


One more.


I'll start hacking at it in a day or so.


In the meantime I've been brainstorming like a madman in anticipation of moving on to my next projects. This is what the plan is right now (subject to change as always)


I'm looking at getting back to the Sports Study. Fiction is my first and last love but I have at least a couple of sports subjects to put out there for debate. I'm looking at publishing four straight ones before moving back to fiction for the foreseeable future. More on this here and on Smashwords over the next 10 days to 2 weeks so stay tuned.


And then it's on to the big one


Back again to 12 Worlds for the first time.


I have ALOT to pass on about this later. I don't want to spring it all on you guys right now. I'm brainstorming like crazy right now. I'm excited. I'm doing covers. I'm doing some character profiles. Did I say I'm excited?


Anyway, I look forward to following you guys following me over the next 24 to 48 hours. I have a stretch of work days coming but I should at least get a chapter a day done on Whirlwind. I don't think that you guys will see it released as fast as the last two episodes but u never know.


Until tomorrow...
