I’m excited. I am outlining the nest book in the Lucky Evan’s Life series and I have to get it done by the end of October because I am doing the book for my Nanowrimo project, with an eye in getting it out fir first quarter of the year. Tribal was fun in the ‘let’s see where this one will go’ sort of way, but I am getting some better ideas for scenes, so I am putting it in the Vault for now. Maybe I’ll revisit it later, but for now – it’s off to supermax for you, Edgar.
I am also going to invest in some online classes on how to format a book properly. If I am going to do the indie author route – I need to learn how to properly handle all aspects of this job. Formatting is one that is difficult to find. I can never find a step-by-step tutorial that completely covers it. So, I am going to pony up the cash and buy a class held by an indie author and take copious amounts of notes.
Speaking a square one – I am back to that with Tyro’s first novel. I’m not worried about it – I don’t even think I am going to get the outline started until the end of the second or third quarter next year. I’m having issues with motivation. Yes – she wants freedom from her abusive Master, but I am also finding out that she is not a leader sort – but everyone is looking to her for leadership. She’s far happier as an almost submissive rather than an assertive leader. I don’t know/ I think this is going to need some more time in the lab, as it were. I was hoping that this would be book two in the Year of Finally Finishing Fantasy Books, but it looks like book three or four. As long as I get two books finished, edited and published by year’s end I’ll be very happy…and more than likely sleep deprived.
I am working still on the outline the The Changeling’s Crusade when I’m not doing a billion other things. This one is turning out very dark – so I like it. This is definitely one book I want to have finished by next year’s end.
Well – I’ve blabbed on enough, and I need to get to work. If you’re interested in my work, or the work of dear friends…look to your right and follow the links, buy a book or two and have at them. Until next time – ta-ta!
