More Novellas & Dreams
My secret identity has been really busy. I've got two more novella's contracted. My publisher was thrilled that I was able to get the next story to him so quickly. Yay. Yeah, I have some bestselling eBooks and I'm proud of them. They were a lot of work. There's also been talk of a paperback anthology sometime next year, which I'm super excited about. I would like a physical paperback copy of a collection of my novellas.
Now onto other things. I actually dreamed about the NaNo novel. I am kicking myself because in the dream there was a solution to where I'm stuck at the moment. I didn't write it down. This just lends more credence to the practice of keeping a dream journal at the side of the bed and writing down everything from my dreams into the journal. Now sometimes I'll do this, I'm just not consistent. Consistency is everything there.
On that note, an e-mail from a FB friend sparked more work on HD, which is nice. I think I feel a bit more confident writing about the topic now that I've more fully experienced the subject matter. I'm finding I have a great deal to say, which is a good thing when you're writing an entire book. This also means HD isn't coming out this year unless I get a wild hair. But it is coming. I'm still talking to fellow necromancers about their experiences as well.
I also feel the urge to work on Into Darkness. Good things are happening and at this point if I don't finish the NaNo I don't care because the contracted work is going well and I'm enjoying the work. I'm also getting a real paycheck for fiction now, which I'm happy about. I don't know how long it will last, but I'm going to enjoy it while I have it and thank the Gods every day for the readers who enjoy my work. Without them it wouldn't be possible and I am humbled by the fact that they are buying it, recommending it, and talking about it.
