So uh... my plan to wait to do this until Camp NaNo? Yeah, totally ain't happening now. For those of you who were around during my first run-through of Gray Morning might remember this. The vast majority of this is written from scratch, except towards the end. I lifted a lot of that dialogue word-for-word, but still altered the descriptions as I ( Read more... )

Ah, here we go. Mitchel being...well, his glorious, Magnificent-bastardy self. I love it. You love it. Everyone loves it. Now read it. ;)
Chapter ?, Chapter ??

Ravi had been a man of his word. Savin stumbled inside his own apartment, his body begging for some time to sit and relax and do nothing, and found a number scrawled on a small piece of ( Read more... )

So I continued from that chapter I finished writing yesterday... and ended up writing a whole chapter today? Somehow? And of course, I had meant for this to be responses for "I'll make you regret this!" and "I'll take you both on!" for the February Table of Doom, but I think I had to set it up, first, and that THAT sequence is next chapter. I think ( Read more... )

While I told myself I wouldn't be posting the bits and pieces of chapters here in this journal as I wrote them -- this part itself is its own, full chapter of Gray Morning. This chapter takes place after Jazz's return to the Empire (after Ravi discovers who Jazz really is). Enjoy. :)

Savin first noticed him on a Saturday.

Clearly, when I get an idea for Gray Morning I have no choice but to run with it. It's like my brain refuses to let me write the books in order... and I'm not even sure there's three books, anymore. I need to do some serious thinking again and rework an outline, if that's the case...

This originally started out as a "What if Jazz didn't act on impulse and push Savin out of the way of Mitchel's bullet?" idea. It erm... then sparked this whole other idea with a different decision being made earlier on in the book than this -- and now it might be canon. Thoughts more than welcome.Jazz glanced around the empty execution room, his ( Read more... )

So apparently, I'm in "write out of order" mode. For whatever reason, this began speaking to me last night, and I figured it'd be in my best interest to listen. Takes place towards the end of Gray Morning, after Savin's abuse and after Jazz has to come back from staying with Ravi. Enjoy.Jazz leaned against the couch, wishing his whole body didn’t ( Read more... )

This is apparently the only way I can write, for now. I'm so sorry, flist. There's a lot of these. 1400 words worth of bits and pieces... Enjoy.

I did more of these last night, will probably do some more tonight, as well. If I can get my lazy but to write something other than this magnificent blog post about receiving critique. Because I got plenty of it for Seize the Day and it is all amazing.
