Two Books in Parallel
I've decided that I will write two books in parallel this coming year (I took a year off).
The two books will be:
1) The Balance Part 2—The Wastelands and the Wilderness. (I've had this plot done for some time, just haven't been in a writing mood)
The Wastelands and the Wilderness continue the story of The Balance—the second part of what is intended to be a three-part story.
2) Disobedience. Disobedience is a supernatural thriller. I've written a couple of short stories to introduce two characters (John and Charles; both have had a number of names, but these are the ones I used in the stories). I posted one of the two short stories on my web site at:
http://michaelselden.com/disobedience/
The one posted is called "Trampling on the Blood of My Enemies". It begins with the authorities investigating a pair of mass murders around the suburbs of Boston.
Disobedience (the novel) is primarily set in Baltimore, but with glimpses back in time to a time period when John lived in Rome (1880-1920) and in Provence, France (1920 to 1939). The story is loosely based on a old testament themes, but told in modern times.
I may get around to editing and posting the second. These are not written with the depth the novel will be written, but are fast-paced snapshots of the characters.
