Not Much New
I’ve been trying to work on
the next installment of the Delta Files
but to no avail. I’ve been thinking it’s because I want so badly to have as
many of my other novels done before I start on the next one. I’ve been only
able to write a few lines at a time on the 7th book Highway 500. I had wondered why when it
occurred to me that: yes the ideas are there for the next book. I know where I want
to take the book and beyond, but I promised myself that my other novels would
get the attention they deserved. That being said I’m surprised I was able to
start work on another new novel, Weird,
in the first place.
I mean, I wanted to get Dreamland Theater, Twelve Months, and the rest done before starting anything new. I suppose that while my muse wants to
work on them Weird is only supposed
to be a novella and that it’s okay to cheat with that one. For now. Weird has become something else
entirely. I’ve hit all the points I’ve wanted to and still the story keeps
going because I haven’t reached the conclusion I wanted to yet. Like the
finding of her birth parents and connecting with her adopted family again. Not
to mention her pregnancy and the final battle with her long-lost sister,
Rayissa. These are preventing me from ending the novella too soon. Weird and her siblings are prompting me
to do further and to finish the novella because they know that I don’t want
another series right now.
At the same time I’m working
on Weird and the other novels; I’m
also helping a friend go over his novel. As I feel that I can safely take a
break from my work, I go over his work. A biography he’s titled My Life and How it has Changed Me. The
subject matter is difficult, but at the same time the way EJ tells his story
makes you want to turn the page. He tells of his very difficult and unfair
childhood and so much more. This is his series, but so much more.
As of now life has quieted
down. No new harassments and I’m looking forward to the county fair next week
even though it’s going to make for a very long day for me. A day that will
start at 11 pm the previous night and go to 11 am that morning. The Clark
County Fair starts on August 3rd and runs until the 12th.
Let me tell you that it has changed so much from when I was younger. There are
fewer rides and games; more commercial and agricultural booths every year. The
food is the same, the lines are the same, but everything else is different.
*shrugs* Times are definitely
changing.
I also wanted to thank my
former classmates for making my Bullying blog my most read blog on
Facebook. I also want to thank the many people that have read the blog on Blogger
as well. The blog I did for Bullying and the one for Pulling No
Punches have been getting hits everyday.
Also thank you to the 260
people that have viewed my blog on Blogger. Hopefully I reach 300 soon.
I guess that’s all for now.
More later.
