The Tale of Joval & Satus

The beginning of my poem "The Tale of Joval and Satus". Enjoy!!!

The Tales of Joval and Satus

Born on cusp of Autumn moon

With nature of eternal June,

Nine suns had crossed overhead

Earth and sea, where men shan't tread.

Life was the brand enduring Summer,

Ignoring roguish constant drummer,

And though the cadence spent the heat,

It would not move willful feet.

Joval took his time indeed,

Parents loving his certain breed.

Though earth was felt undersole,

Refusal, he made, to lose control.

Mother covered...

Ya-honk he says, and sounds it down to me like an invitation

The rest did not see her, but she saw them and loved them.

I should really work on updating this blog more often....or not. whatever. :tongue:

Anyway, here's an update:

Danny Marble & the Application for Non-Scary Things is officially under contract with Reliquary Press. Boy oh boy, do I like those fellas at Reliquary Press! :D Not only are they hard-working and passionate about their business, but they're down-to-earth and totally cool individuals. I really like working with them a lot.

 

Rabbits in the Garden is still being read/edited by the oh so...

Have you heard that it was good to gain the day?

Huzzah! I had my first ever radio interview today!! And actually, it wasn't half bad. I was so nervous I was going to sound like a straight up dude or say something stupid, but luckily they cut all of the stupid sounding parts out. ;)Ok, so maybe I should've posted the link here before it aired, but don't worry, o my brothers. KEY103 is going to send me an mp3 of the full interview, and i'll probably end up posting it here...Twilight bashing and all! :DSo a little update: I'm putting all of m...

...Hoping to cease not till death...

Rabbits in the Garden is FINISHED! Huzzah! i felt like that went by really fast, but it's actually longer than the majority of my books. I have already begun editing like a madman, but I still have to get all of my The Sky: The World edits into the computer too. Oh, and Yven...and Palaplia...and I have to finish Telinhe....and did I mention that I've already started writing some dialog for the next book, Verses of Villainy (working title)?

 

I have so much to do, and I love it!!! PLUS...

Who has done his day's work? who will soonest be through with his supper? Who wishes to walk with me?

i could have 6 books come out next year!!!

i won't, but i could. Reliquary Press has accepted "From the Herald's Wearied Eye" and "The Sky: The World" for publication. So in 2010, I'll most likely release at least one of those, if not both, and at least 2 of the Dominhydor series. So basically, I'm going to have a lot of editing to do. I might not get to write anything new until its time to finish Telinhe (the 4th Dominhydor book). I'm toying with the idea of writing a 5th too: a prequel.
