Yikes!
Hey everyone…see what running late in the morning does. I forgot my thumb drive at home. Just discovered it. So the next installment of Bastet will be tomorrow. Sorry about that. 🙂
Have a great day.
What can I say….
it’s Monday. 🙁 Oh well, it’s a short week for me since I have Friday off. Of course, I have to work on Saturday to make up for it. Sometimes can’t win for losing, huh? 🙂
Well, writing is going very well. I’m really close to finishing a sci-fi story that I started a long time ago. Decided I wanted to cross it off my list. But Mars is chatting with me every chance he gets along with a pair of vampires who have very interesting stories to tell. I’m hoping to get the sci-fi one done, then moving on to the vampires. Mars will continue to be worked on late at night when he won’t let me sleep because he wants me to tell his story asap. 🙂
Have a great day, everyone.
Friday the 13th
I’ve always been intrigued by the legend of Friday the 13th. So many reasons why it’s become synonymous with bad luck. The one that catches my interest the most is the story of the downfall of the Knights Templar and how on the 13th of October in 1307, King Philip of France ordered the mass arrest of the Knights Templar. There’s a story in that whole terrible situation, I’m sure, and maybe someday I’ll write something based on it. 🙂 Who knows?
Another good night of writing. The story I wrote with Carol is done and with the publisher now. Not sure how long it’ll take this particular publisher to let us know what they think, but as soon as I find anything out, I’ll let you all know.
Well, I’m off for a fun day of meetings. Woo-hoo!
I hope you all have a wonderful and safe Friday the 13th. 🙂 Also, a good weekend.
What’s going on….
not much to report yet. 🙂 Still working on Not Seeing is Believing, my blind vampire story along with a sci-fi story titled Soothing the Burn.
Plus Carol Lynne and I are in the homestretch of our joint story, Dracul’s Blood. That has a tentative date of June next year. Then we’ll be getting right onto the sequel for it. I know some of you have voiced concern about a co-writing venture, but I really think that Carol’s ‘voice’ meshes well with mine. 🙂
Umm…someone asked about the next Sports book. It is on the schedule to be worked on soon. I have Not Seeing to finish, but I plan on starting JT’s story and the third Sports book by the end of Nov. So I’m hoping they’ll be out some time next year.
I hope you all have a great day.
Done
His Heart’s Home is done, for the most part. Just have to go back over for a quick edit and write up the synopsis. Then it’s off to Liquid Silver. Woo-hoo!Now I’m working on Not Seeing is Believing. It’s a ‘friends-to-lovers’ story about a blind vampire and the shifter he falls in love with. After that, I’ll be working on a few different ones, just to keep my interest…lol.
Oh everyone might be glad to know that I’ve done some work on Mars’ Assassin. It’s the story of Mars and Lord from Death or Life. The other night I didn’t get much sleep because for some reason I couldn’t get those two out of my head. So I’ve been writing down what they seem to want to tell me at the moment. We’ll see how long that lasts. 🙂
I hope everyone has a good Wednesday.
Rainy Days and Fridays…..
don’t always get me down…lol. I’m looking forward to this Friday, simply because I’m leaving work early. Woo-hoo! Only working until 1:30, then I have errands to run. After which, I’ll be coming home, and if it’s still raining, I’ll probably take a nap. Nothing like having your day planned out, huh?
Well, Fighting Dragons was finished and sent in. I have the second round of edits on With This Ring to do and return.After that, it’s working on other stories. 🙂 I’m hoping to have a productive weekend.
Have a great Friday, everyone, and a safe and fun Halloween.
Hump Day
Well, the middle of the week has arrived and I have to say, I’m glad for that. Means only two more days until the weekend and I am looking forward to two days off. Though it never feels like enough time away from the EDJ. 🙂
I never thought 2k would go so slow. I’m so close to being done with Fighting Dragons, yet I can’t seem to find the time to sit down and finish the silly thing. I’m going to do that tonight. No matter what, I’m going to get what needs to be written done. Yay! Then I can work on the story Carol Lynne and I are writing together. Have to get my half of the chapter finished soon. lol.
That’s it. Nothing new to report, so I’ll just say I hope you all have a great Hump day. 🙂
The rat race begins again….
So it begans again…lol. Nice and wet as well. Yay! Mondays are always so much fun to begin with and chilly and rainy.
The website didn’t happen, so that goes on my list to get done at some other point. But I’m only a scene or two away from finishing Fighting Dragons.
I watched a documentary on Bon Jovi yesterday and, of course, ended up with a story idea from something Jon Bon Jovi said…lol. I wrote the idea down because I didn’t want to forget it. We’ll see how long it takes before I can work on it.
Well, I hope you all have a great Monday…hope it’s drier than mine is.
T.G.I.F…
This week has seemed a lot longer than it probably was. 🙂 But I’m ready for the countdown…lol. Now, if I can just get through the rest of the day.
Fighting Dragons is going well. I’m about 4-5k away from being done. I should be getting most of that done over the weekend, even though I plan on finally overhauling my website. If that happens, and it works (since I’m going to learn how to do it all myself instead of relying on others to do it for me) my blog will probably be moving, but don’t change your bookmarks yet. I’ll definitely post if that happens or not. 🙂
Been sneaking in a little writing on a couple of other stories as well as FD, just to give myself a little break from that story.
Oh, I normally don’t get political or anything like that on my blog, but I have to announce the news. Finally, the Matthew Shepherd and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act passed and will be on its way to President Obama to be signed. It expands the hate crimes bill to include any crimes against people because of their sexual orientation. Matthew Shepherd was a gay college student killed eleven years ago in Wyoming for being gay. James Byrd Jr. was an African-American man who was killed by white supremacists in Texas in 1998 as well. Both murders were gut-wrenchingly horrific. Both the Shepherd and Byrd families deserve our thanks for presevering though all the long years of struggling to get this bill passed. And thank you to all those Congressmen and women who voted for this bill, though I might want to say, it should have been passed much sooner, but at least you did it right this time.
I hope you all have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend.
Just another Hump day…
This series of photographs is great. I really like this model. 🙂
Hmm…what to talk about? It looks like Bastet is going to be a hit. That’s always good. I’d hate to start a blog story and have everyone hate it…lol. That would really suck. Since I just started their story, I’m learning about the characters like you are, as each scene and chapter plays out.
Fighting Dragons is coming along and I’m starting to get ready to finish up His Heart’s Home, which will move up to the head of the line as soon as I hit ‘send’ on FD. While I’m finishing HHH, I’ll be working on another vampire story. Once that’s done, I’ll be working on JT’s story (Tyler’s brother from Bound by Love) along with Rover’s story, I think. Even though it seems and sounds like I’m organized, I try not to pin myself down too much. Never know what story will end up taking over for a while. But those are my general plans for now.
I have a long list of at least thirty stories that I want/need to finish, and I have to admit that a majority of them have something, even if it’s only 200 words, written on them. It’s just a matter of taking my time and going down the list. Of course, if I think about it too much, I’ll wind up in a corner, crying because I’m overwhelmed by the sheer enormity of the job…lol.
Well, I hope you have a great Wednesday. 🙂
