Another Free Alice Story & Updates
Hello there again. Seems like I have finally returned to the weekly update blog schedule.
And what do I have to share this week?
I hoped to have more updates on the progress of Once Upon a Time in Boston, but I really don’t. I was very busy for the first part of this week. Then power went out on a stormy Tuesday night, and I started writing down a story in a notebook to kill time in the dark. It’s a fantastical scifi tale about a rich kid trying to run away from his crazy family on Mars and having to deal with this aliens, betrayals, and a possible war. It’s something that was real fun to write, and for much of the week when time allowed, I continued to work on that instead of Once Upon a Time in Boston. I was afraid if I didn’t stick with it and draft out some ideas, then the concept may be lost as I shift my focus back to other things. So that was my week. I am getting back on track now though. I dove back into editing Boston again last night and the editing will continue from here on out. I promise. I am scatterbrained when it comes to working on all this, and sometimes things just derail from time to time. But projects do get finished strangely enough, so it’s definitely is coming.
But it is not all disappointment, because the free story giveaways are continuing. This week is another Alice short story. This one follows an African scientist who is willing to tear apart the fabric of the space time continuum to get back home. I’ll post the complete synopsis below.
Before stumbling into Wonderland, Alice Khoza was a brilliant scientist. Now she's an outcast trying to find a way back home and to her loving husband. But after spending so long tinkering and inventing in this new world of non-sense, she thinks she has found a way home. It won't be easy though. Alice will have to steal a trident from a notorious evil clan of Hatters and use it to channel magic in the far north to rip a hole in between the worlds of Wonderland and Earth. The probability of making it back home is low, but Alice is going to give it her best go.
This is a short story will be free on Kindle from June 2nd to June 6th. Grab your copy at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08QM5SG5M
And that this what I have for this week. I really hope to have more exciting stuff to share soon. I hope you all have a great week, and if you live in the United States, have a great memorial day!
