Chapter 15 At last.

I have finished Chapter 14 this morning. YAY and I am passed the point chapter wise on my rough draft, yet oddly enough because of the all the new stuff and fixes, plot wise I'm still about chapter 7 of the original draft.  But I felt I had to slow the plot down to give the reader time to learn and care about some of the characters in this, so plot though still important took only a minor backseat so I could introduce and let the reader know and hopefully feel more for the characters in this story.  Although some new characters decided to pop their heads into this one, such as Lady Anja, Granny (wink), and Z'ren. And a few other characters got a little make over with name changes and other small minor things that can sometimes make or break a story.  Now I am at last on Chapter 15.  I know it's taking me a long time to write this one, but I hope once it's out there that people will enjoy it.  Type more later.

New Idea For A New Novel

I came up with an idea for a new novel; but of course I can't work on it now as I have not even begun to finish my current set of novel ideas.  For now I've simply written down the basic plot outline for it and came up with a tentative title for it, Dreams of the Tempest.  The title for this new idea sounds more cool to me then the title I came up for the first book in my Ashes of the Fallen series, which is In The Shadows.  The plot for Dreams of the Tempest is very complex and might not actually be very marketable as far as books go.  But until I at least get done with Ashes of the Fallen's first couple books I'm not going to even attempt any drafts on Dreams of the Tempest, though I might work on names for the characters if I get bored at work during my breaks. 

Not much more to type so I'll type more when I have more to say.

Another Update on In The Shadows

I finally finished Chapter 13 and I am now on Chapter 14 of this novel.  I am glad to finally be done with Chapter 13, it was taking far too long.   Chapter 14 should be pretty good as the wheels are finally starting to spin again and the things set up in the beginning chapters are starting to move everything into place for this part of the book.   I am thinking Chapter 14 will see the introduction of the Reldarian Emissary so that should be a fun chapter to write.  Plus there is the fact of Emissary Larenz outrage, that will be a fun scene to write up as well, most likely.  On the Nook In the Shadows is at 98 pages, and still has some way to go before I reach the end of it.   A lot of things have to come to pass before I have this one finished.   Plus watching something inspired me for a character but not sure if he'll show up in this series or the next or a completely different set of books.  I shall type more when I have more to say about my writing project.
