December Update

I know I've not written much on here lately.  But I've not really done a lot of writing.  I've sort of lost focus on my writing and I really need to get back into it.  I've worked on it piecemeal since taking my vacation this week, but I really need to focus more on it.  I've finished Chapter 1 of Geometry of Souls today.  I am rather proud of that fact.  I am also thinking maybe alliterative verse for the center piece epic poem might not be a strong point for this story, and that maybe I should use a different poetry style for it.  It's just really hard to write in that style.  Originally I was doing it to challenge myself and to make the story a little more historical like accurate...putting it into the veins of things like Beowulf and such.  But I am only an average writer at best, and in truth I only write for my own enjoyment and hope that others that read my stories enjoy them as much as I enjoyed telling them.  So not sure if I should keep trying to write it in alliterative verse or not.  Or maybe I should try writing one version in alliterative verse and the other in a more natural feeling style for me. 

Moving on I haven't really worked on anything aside from Geometry of Souls.  I also started to write up the plot tree for what has to be in Geometry of Souls.  I had a vague idea of the gist of the story but with the plot tree I am filling in the gaps of things that must be covered in this one.  First of all it's going to tie up one of the cliff hanger fairly early on of Book 1: In the Shadows:   I am also thinking that in Book 2 Margan will start playing a smaller role as in truth I didn't think his role would be as important as it became in this version of Book 1, as I introduce the new and more important characters for the story.  Most of them you will have already glimpsed in Book 1...not that Book 1 of it is out yet.  I am still in need of saving money for a cover, but other real life needs take precedents over the money for the art I want for this first book. 

Not much more to say, so I'll type more when I have another update on my writing for you.  And thanks to those that take the time to read this blog.
