The Beginning of Book 2

What a fruit­ful day. Yes­ter­day I wanted to get through March feel­ing accom­plished, and I’ve cer­tainly started in the right fash­ion. Granted, I was off work today. But aside from that, I know I can be pro­duc­tive between work, fam­ily and… oh, sleep. I’m feel­ing good about Only Shad­ows Ahead, as I’ve com­pleted the first scene of chap­ter one, and it went really well. The words flowed more than they have recently, and in decid­ing to write in 1st per­son POV, it’s giv­ing me a new expe­ri­ence that feels so much more,  oh I don’t know. But it feels good — refresh­ing, like I’m liv­ing it and not just telling it. I also man­aged to get down over a thou­sand words for episode eight of May 5 & The Assas­sin, which I really didn’t think I would. I was tired before I even started it, and what I had from the last time I’d opened the doc wasn’t great. So I wiped it and started again.

Tomor­row I hope to begin edit­ing  ‘Ran Red and get back to my sec­ond book.

Only Shad­ows Ahead: 1,147 words (Scene)

May 5 & The Assas­sin: 1,139 words (Episode)

Total:  2,286

    Hey Lori!

    Thanks for read­ing the ser­ial, and thanks for the pos­i­tive feed­back. I’m enjoy­ing the process as it’s new to me, some­what akin to a movie vs. a TV show I guess.

    Hope­fully Ep8 won’t disappoint!
