Alonca's Quest Progress Report

Good news and bad news. The good news is that there's progress to report! Yeah! I'm on page 109 of what I think is going to be a 275 page book. The bad news is that the more I write, the more the characters require. They don't let me stick to my outline. They insist that their stories are more interesting than I originally gave them credit for, and they demand better representation. The book mostly follows Rima and Ronka from 'Kings of the Red Shell', but there are a few other characters who get a little spotlight time: Jail's father, Driston, King Arisu Mihn, King Pitr of Kergulen, and a new one that I think you'll like, but I don't want to go into in case he ends up getting cut. I hope not, cause he's a really cool man, but the beta readers will help me figure that out. I've been more diligent than ever about working on the book, largely due to those of you who occasionally remind me that you're still waiting. I appreciate your gentle and not so gentle prodding. It motivates me to get to work, and gives me confidence that it's worth the effort. Thanks.
