News: Lots of Writing

10/28/14

• I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!  The Oracle's Sprite is coming to an end.  As you're reading this, I am probably putting the finishing touches on the final scene of the book.  I still have to go back and add two more small scenes that I skipped in order to keep up the flow of my writing, but those shouldn't be hard to write.  I don't see any reason why I won't have Sprite completely written by the end of October or the very beginning of November.  I'll do a quick edit when it's completed in order to catch the glaringly obvious errors and then put it aside until the end of December at which point I'll do a more thorough edit and get it properly formatted for submission. 
      Next on my list for this series is The Oracle's (Water), the fifth and final book of the series, and The Sentinel's Prophesy, the first book of the side series.  I hope to have one of those ready to submit by July 2015. 
  
  
• I have also been continuing to write my still untitled story for LT3's Devil's Land call.  I need to come up with a title for it, so if anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to offer them.  I also need to put together a working summary.  I think I should have the story completed soon, but without a title and summary I can't submit it!  I'll have to really sit down and figure these important details out, but luckily the writing itself is going well. 
  
  
• I have received a first reaction email from my beta reader about Thunderbird, and it's good!  My beta reader seems to like it!  I am so very excited.  She's giving it another once-over before sending it back to me, but I'm really looking forward to what she has to say.  There is still plenty of time to edit and format Thunderbird and I should have it ready to finally submit soon!
