A Sorta-Kinda Update on Book III of The Hidden
I suck. There, I said it.
I've gotten asked by a few people now when book three's coming out, and I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but...I just don't know. It's kinda hard for me to have a set release date when the book's not even written yet.
*ducks, in case people start throwing things*
I know, I know. You guys want to know what happens next. And I'd tell you, if I only knew. See, this pesky thing called writer's block has been a real thorn in my side. I always knew who Emily was going to end up with, and how the general story would end, but all that stuff in the middle? You know, the actual plot?
Not a friggin' clue.
So instead of just sitting around and banging my head on the keyboard, praying the words would come to me by divine intervention, I decided to write something else. Something non-Hidden related.
And so, Down and Out was born. Only that turned out to be twins. Apparently I can't write a stand-alone book to save my life. Just can't do it. I also can't write fast, I've learned. I can type fast, sure, but creating hundreds of pages of words out of thin air that's not a mishmash of gobbledygook? Nope. That crap takes me months, apparently, when a lot of authors can dish books out like they're Domino's. It doesn't help that most days I'm mommy first and a writer second, but I digress...
So book one of Down and Out is almost ready to go, and when that's published, I'll give book three another stab. It helps that I've recently had a mini-epiphany with the storyline, so fingers crossed that I can get this thing straightened out.
So there you have it. An update to tell you guys that I don't really have an update. See? Total suckage on my end.
