nomination and a little bit of news
I'll confess to you guys - I don't know how this works, but apparently I am amongst the nominees for the 2009 Rainbow Awards - so vote if you liked Touch Like Breathing :)

Also, I've completed a rough draft for the werewolf story finally. I kind of love these guys, and I plan to write a sequel. With a good productive two weeks under my belt, I am seriously flirting with a "cracked the writer block" dance. I still have some issues but I've done a lot of work trying to uncover what's going on. One, I lost my enthusiasm for falling headlong into a good book (hard as that is for me to realize). It took my Amazon wish list to help me see it. Two, I have a serious problem at home with getting the time I need to put into writing. I'm not talking about finding the time (which is hard enough), but finding the time without multiple interruptions. That's the big one, and I've stayed up basically all night the last two Sundays to find the peace and concentration that I need. Now I'll see what I'm going to do next in order to get some time without a bunch of concentration busting interruptions.
Anyway, back to the werewolf story (BENEATH THE NEON MOON) - as I said before, it's gotten way too long for the anthology and I have plans to flesh it out some during second edit. Plus with a sequel planned, I think it needs to be released as a single title. I'm putting it aside after this week to let it settle a bit while I head into the (real) antho story. Mulling some things - I'm feeling extremely Halloweeny (it is so a word) so I want some dark scuttling clouds, maybe a full moon, some ancient pagan worship and possibly some outdoor sex. My bestest girl has suggested Pan would do nicely, that devil.
