Tricksy

And here I thought I got out of that slump. Fool me once and all that. Oh well. The past is the past, and I'm not yet dead. There's always room to move forward so long as I draw breath.

Been having a little trouble with the current story I'm writing (number six for the Arnstead books). Some of that comes from the general difficulties I have with winter, to be sure. The rest of it stems from the nature of the work. This is a more intimate story than I'm used to working on. Relies a lot more on interpersonal relationships than action and daring do to pull the story along. Not that I'm complaining. It's just something different that requires adaptation on my part.

Still no substantial bites on representation for Shikaree. By this point, I think I'm comfortable doing some research into the self-publication process. I can, at the very least, do things that would need to be done anyways. The first item that comes to mind is hiring a professional editor to run through the manuscript and make sure it doesn't look as abysmal as the current print of 'Spellseeker.' Not interested in altering the story. Just want to make sure the presentation is clear and clean. I'll keep sending out feelers while working through that part of the process. If there are still no bites after I'm satisfied with edits, then I'll wager it's time to put the self-pub process into proper gear.

Toodles.
