Word Count Wednesday and a Knight's Tale (sort of)
Hello everyone,
My days have been very full lately - caring for a two-year-old will do that to you! - and I have much less time to write, but I am still working on the next big thing! At the moment, that is my next story for "Tales From Midhgardhur" on Channillo, entitled "Knight of the Green Chapel." The story is a little different, set in Theiphalia, Gaunorria (roughly equivalent to Poitou, France in our world) and involves the legend of the Green Man. I was hoping to have it out by the Ides of Sextilis (8/13/16), but it has been pretty slow going - it'll be out on Channillo by the end of August, for sure!
Anyway, I have been making the effort to get back to my normal routine. I am back to participating in some weekly Twitter events when I am able(#2BitTues, #1LineWed, and #Thurds are usually my big ones). I am back to reading at my usual rate (I've got a pretty wide range of stuff I'm working on, too!). But I am struggling to make any kind of word count goals right now. Don't worry, though; I'll adjust!
The official word count for "Knight of the Green Chapel" is currently 4216 words and counting. I'm going to see if I can add to that significantly before I go to bed tonight.
Also, I just want to say that I am immensely gratified - and grateful - for the very positive reception my published works are receiving. Not so many people reviewing on Amazon and Goodreads, though - if you like what you read, PLEASE review! Anyway, The Saga of Asa Oathkeeper: A Midhgardhur Fantasy
has now been joined by the short piece The Tale of Halfdanur the Black
, which also appears in the collection Tales From Midhgardhur, Volume I
. Thanks for reading! It means the world to me!
Happy Reading! Skál!
