Work in Progress - The Peacekeeper
I am down to chapter 30, the last chapter on the rewrite of my next historical novel, THE PEACEKEEPER, the second segment of THE BROKEN LANCE. The story takes place in First Century A.D. Imperial Rome as seen through the eyes of a Spanish Centurion in the Roman army. Now, he is a tribune and one of the cohort commanders of the City Guard.
As I previously mentioned, I read the last chapter to my writers group, the Red Ink Fictioneers (previously known as the Spokane Novelist Group). I told them I didn't like the ending, and they agreed and gave me several suggestions. I am now rewriting the ending using some their advice.
Author Ernest Hemingway claimed to have rewritten the ending of his wonderful classic, Farewell to Arms, thirty-five times before he was satisfied with what he had written. I hope I won't have to do that many rewrites, then again, my novel isn't a Farewell to arms. Wish me good luck!
