A New Story?

When I finished up classes and got back to doing some of my own writing last month I picked up on the stories that I was working on last fall.  I'm still working on them and they are coming along nicely but about a week ago I had a dream.  Not a nice fantasy or dreamscape, no this dream threw me full-bodied into a new story, a new world and introduced me to a whole host of new characters... I woke up at 4:25am with the visions I'd seen still dancing in my head and after trying and failing to fall back to sleep, finally decided to get up, make some coffee - a very important thing at 5am - and start writing.  

This particular story I'm going to introduce here on this site.  It's still untitled at this point but I'm going to keep plugging away at it and post it in short segments.  First I'll do installments that introduce the main characters as there are about half a dozen of them.  Then I'll move on to the story.  I'm hoping that I'll get some feed back from readers - what they like, and who, what they hate, and who, and what they'd like to see happen to the characters and the "world" that they live in.  Keep an eye out for it...

Thanks for visiting and I hope you'll come back.

I'm Back and What's Up!?!

I'm back!! I know, I know, six months later and that's all I've got to say for myself... And really it is.  I could give you excuses and reasons - and they are good ones - but it doesn't change anything.  So all I can say now is simply that I am back and I'll be trying to post regularly again.

For tonight, that's about all I've got to say... Except for a bit of cross-promotion for my review blog.  I've decided to do "A Month of Nora Roberts," a series of posts that will discuss a bunch of her books. (All the one's that I own anyway.) The first installment is already posted and available for your consumption.  I've also got a review series for Christine Feehan's Dark series that I sort of died on in October last year too.  I'll be picking that back up in the next couple of weeks as well.  Hope you'll stop by and see what I'm doing.  You can follow the link above, or copy and paste the following:
