Made by MeghanThough I have Amplifier 5 all roughly outlined, I’m finding it difficult to force myself to focus on the first draft while the editor has Archivist 2. I’ve been writing Dusk, not Emma, for almost a year straight, and I have two side projects, not counting the short stories, that are occupying a lot of […]
Writing update: Compelling Infinity (Archivist 2) is off to the editor (aka SFG) for story editing. Finally! With the increase of pain (tried hormone therapy from Feb to July which helped with a ton of my other symptoms but unfortunately worsened the constant headache), my writing capacity was really slowed down. Thankfully, while I’m still […]
I didn’t risk glancing back a third time. I knew what I had to do. And I needed to move quickly, without regrets. Because I was a dragon, not a witch. And dragons protected the world and all the magic within it. – Compelling Infinity (Archivist 2), Chapter Nine, Second Draft In other news, all […]
A drive-by excerpt of my current work in progress (Archivist 2), just because it made me laugh. Ravine pushed a plate into my hands. “Kellan is manning the barbecue. Literally.” She grinned suggestively. “Cooking steak perfectly, wearing an apron, and exposing those … forearms. You might want to take a picture.” I blinked. Once again […]
I just dropped From One Moment to the Next (Moments of the Adept Universe 0.5) (aka Kandy 0.75) into the inboxes of my newsletter subscribers, and as promised, I actually remembered to start a discussion thread! The short (2600k) is just a sweet (well, my version of sweet) glimpse into Kandy’s life. It is set between her […]
… digging through every mention of the Llewellyn family in my master Adept Universe bible, then every mention of uncles and cousins in a specific book – this time it was I See You (Oracle 2). All to roughly sketch out a family tree in order to verify that the current (previously unnamed) alpha of […]
I promised a Dusk/Kellan teaser from Archivist 2 last Friday, but got hit hard by a headache that actually took me down for the entire weekend, so I’m making good with some fresh-off-the-page (just written today) slow, slow burn … squee!!! “You’re not afraid of me, are you, Dusk?” he asked quietly. “Afraid?” I frowned. […]
I’m working through the midpoint of Archivist 2 this week (the first draft is sitting at 48k right now), tackling a scene that my notes tell me I started envisioning all the way back in March 2021. I often collect little touchstones connected to various series/characters, including stickers and decals that I put in my […]
This is duplicate news if you got my newsletter last week (which has more info) but, just FYI, Invoking Infinity (Archivist 1) has been selected as an Amazon Monthly Deal (for Canada and the USA only) – eBook $0.99. I pretty much never discount the second book in a series, so I doubt it will […]
Words, magical creatures, and items of power might be my thing, but math most certainly wasn’t. – Archivist 2, chapter 3, first draft I’m rewriting chapter three of Archivist 2 today, and this line (above) made me laugh. ‘Know thyself,’ Dusk. And … in case you ever wondered, math is definitely not my thing either. […]
