For all my American readers, I hope you had a very happy Turkey Day. I got to spend some time with my family, so I had a lovely day. I made pumpkin bread and pumpkin pie, which everyone seemed to really enjoy. Now I have the rest of the weekend to relax. Since I'm watching the World Cup, I doubt I'll be able to get any chores done, but maybe I'll be able to get some writing done instead. I have a soccer story that's been stalled for a long time because I can't decide who the villain is. Perhaps watching all this soccer will help me find some inspiration. For anyone who might have missed it, I sent out my first email newsletter in a long time! I finally had enough free time to put one together. I included a snippet from my fantasy story that used to have the working title of Fire and Water as a treat to anyone subscribed. I hope to be able to send out another newsletter soon, so feel free to subscribe if you're interested. Speaking of Fire and Water, thanks to the suggestion of one of you wonderful readers, I now have a title! The story is now titled Twin Elements. Since I have a title, I went ahead and submitted it to NSP! I hope to hear good news soon Writing is continuing to go well. I have reached the epilogue in You Can't Sell a Dragon's Heart. All that's left is tying together a few loose ends and then this story is done. Of course, it needs major edits. My plan is once the epilogue is done, I'll go back and scrub it up. I need to expand in a couple of places and fix a handful of things. After that, this story is going to sit for a few months, after which I'll edit again. I'm thinking February to submit to NSP, but that depends on the extent of the edits. We'll see how things play out the next few months. My last blog post was also very inspiring. I wrote a quick summary of what I was thinking about writing in Vivary Tales, and I've since written 8k words in the story. I can't decide whether I want to make this a massive book at approximately 120k words, or split it into multiple books in a series. It depends on how the writing goes, so it's still far too early to tell. Still, it's an extremely interesting world with unique characters and I'm exited to see how it turns out.
