Omnibus, Omnivores, Omnipotence, and things that get really hot.

So I’m almost done with Book Five (Lux 2.2 Burning).  It’s getting done fast for a few reasons.  I live in a really freakin’ cold place, and right next to my desk there’s a heater.  It’s this old rectangle of coils that heat up to something just a few degrees below afterburner, and it glows a marvelous and skin crisping red, like the Eye of Sauron.  On Skype it looks purple which makes it seem deceptively cool, and perhaps more evil than it already is.  I am sure there are a million housing codes that this heater is breaking.  We are rebels together.  It inspires me to stay in front of my desk and write.  Also, I quit smoking,and now that I am no longer addicted to cigarettes, I am addicted to huge, soul-numbing amounts of food. I am eating everything. Ev. ery. Thing.

I can personally recommend that caramel covered bananas combined with a handful of peanuts and chased with three bags of gummy worms will make all of your problems go away.  And it will make you write better.

Oh yeah..writing.  See, I told you this would happen.

…So I’m almost done because I can sit here and be warm, and surrounded by food, and I have a door that locks, which is a new development and I’m sure that being able to hide in here uninterrupted has made me more productive.

And because I took such a long hiatus, I am now trying to be everywhere at once on the internet, so keep your eyes open.

The Omnibus is out and besides being a nicely revised, edited, and streamlined compilation of the first three Lux books, it also has ten  cast shots from our trailer shoot last year. Pics no one has seen yet, not even the cast, come to think of it.

I think Burning will be wrapped, and edited, and out to you early Spring.  That’s what I’m shooting for.  Because as soon as its warm again, I’m turning the heater off and running barefoot through the woods.

And you won’t be able to catch me… unless you lure me with food.
