So we closed the store and I have thrown myself into writing again. I have the little fan-fic writing guide up on Amazon for the Wartooth Arena contest. And I just penned the words "the end" on a superhero romance. Sadly, it is not long enough to submit to the publisher I want to send it to. So I am plotting out a second half for a "later on down the road" segment of the tale.
I've gotten into some online writing groups and they are great. I am trying to work on some more contest pieces that will be taxing the heck out of my new skills as I have to come up with 2 1/2 novels by December. The first is due by October 1st and I am on chapter 2. That is 3,000/50,000 word. But I must try! The prizes are worth it! So I'm not exactly suffering right now, in fact I kind of like this gig a lot!
Firbolg Press accepted a couple of my short stories and they will appear in one of their anthologies this January. So I'll have something else to point to for my writing credits then. Right now, I'm just trying to keep putting words on the page. Miss a lot of you here so I'm throwing this tidbit of news together for those of you who might still remember me! Heh! But things are okay right now on my end. I hope all of you are fairing equally well. Peace out!
