Alrighty then!  I promised another batch of words from Tau Scorpii.  Hopefully, they’re in the right order to keep readers interested!  This is a bit further along in Garrett and Taryn’s day, traipsing across the desert.  Last week was the first post about them.

This week, a new project!  Tau Scorpii is in first draft, and I’m not certain if it’s a standalone or a series, novel or novella.  Or, whatever.  I like the story I’ve got.  We’ll see what happens during that second draft.  For now, a snippet.  But first – the WeWriWa blog.  A fantastic place to catch authors while they’re writing.  It’s a fascinating process.  Click the graphic!

OK, there’s that.  I’ve pitched out the first draft of Bloodlines, calling redo.  This is a few lines.  Just when you think things are safe, stuff happens.  This is Shannon, one of the Genetically Enhanced, talking to another officer.  Green is her backup, and she confides in him, probably more than she shou...

Isolated, guarded, and hiding a dark secret, the people have survived World War Last, and they are content with that. Their children, however, are not. The search for others will send them out in...
