Time to do an update

Well, Breaking The Covenants went out to several beta readers and the feedback was positive. I'd say we have a winner.

I did have to rewrite my opening scene. Well, I didn't have to but Celina thought it would be a good idea. She was right. I was winging it the first time and didn't have a clear idea of Gunther's character. This time turned out much better.

We've submitted a partial to the publisher that suggested the project, Aspen Mountain Press. I'm pretty sure we'll get a contract out of it.

That's it for now. I'll try to post on a more regular basis.

Update

Somehow I managed to pound out 2,300 words on Breaking The Covenants yesterday. I'm pretty pleased with that.

I'm figuring that including what my co-author wrote the book is 110,000 words now. Yay! The end (of the first draft) is in sight.

I don't have anything planned for that today so I think I'll work on my menage erotic romance I'm calling Among The Stacks as one of the characters is a rather repressed librarian. Not to worry. She's anything but repressed by the end of it.

A quick report

My latest writing project, Breaking The Covenants continues apace.

As of this morning it stands at about 96,000 words.

Yay me.

Things are good

I seem to have, for the moment, rediscovered useful sleeping habits. It's so nice not wandering around in a haze of fatigue.

The project I'm working on with Celina Summers is proceeding apace. The story has gone places I've never expected, probably because we're both pansters. But we have the plot firmed up. And we've decided that it is the first book of a trilogy.

The title of the first book is going to be Breaking The Covenants. This is because the background of the story centers around the covenants that vampires live by, and the consequences of breaking them.

It's a great story and I'm very flattered that Celina agreed to work with me.
