Writing Update January 2022

Writing Update

Writing has been challenging the last month or so, partially because of Covid (The dreaded plague) and because I am having trouble finishing the last chapter of my next book “Demon Tide.” 

I’m fortunate to say that I was spared the bulk of symptoms, but it was not fun. Down with the Covid, I say!

As far as finishing the last chapter of Demon Tide, I think I just need some inspiration to really make it good. Being locked inside for weeks on end isn’t good for the imagination, or the body! The ending is in there somewhere, I just haven’t put it into words yet. Will it end happily? With death and destruction? A budding romance? I haven’t decided yet. All I know is that I can’t wait to dive into book two. 

It is strange, however, that I’ve begun to notice some parallels between Demon Tide and the world as it stands today. The more I write it, the more they seem to line up. Don’t worry, it’s a total fantasy story with exciting twists and turns and fantastical creatures, but there are just some things in there that would make you go “hmm…” about current events.

Either way, I plan to finish “Demon Tide” soon, with book two quickly to follow. Additionally, I am aiming to start another really cool series that has a James Patterson and Jack Ryan feel to it. I’ve also challenged myself to write a semi-romance at some time in the future. We will see how that goes. 

Until the next update, I’m signing off!
