So it has been a long time since I posted anything new. In the case of The Pale Rose it has been about three months, which is a fair bit of time. I’d like to say I decided to keep a summer vacation from posting, but that’s not really what happened. I simply got distracted.<\/p>\n

I got an idea for a novel that I just couldn’t leave alone. I had to write it. So that’s what I did. Initially I wrote it at the same time as I continued on The Pale Rose, but towards the end I worked solely on that piece. I even started writing it with the thought I might try and get it published, but that’s an idea I’ve since given up on. Getting published just seems to involve a lot of work that I’m not willing to do. I’d rather spend my time writing stories instead of letters to agents and what have you.<\/p>\n

In any case, the first novel of that idea is now done. At least the first draft is. At 78k words, it’s a decent start to what will be a trilogy and I’m going to say I think it’s some of the best writing I’ve done so far. It’s completely separate from the world of Balaria, something entirely new. I’m excited to share it with all of you once I get the thing edited to an acceptable level and maybe had someone beta read it. For now, I’ll just leave you with this teaser:<\/p>\n

Now, about The Pale Rose. I’m just about done completing it and there are plenty of chapters to post. I just posted chapter 10<\/a> on here and that leaves me with 18 ready chapters to go. The plan is to go back to the chapter every Sunday schedule and I hope to keep that up. Now that I have the first bit of that obsession story out of me I’ll hopefully have time to do some short stories as well. Plenty of ideas floating around my head for those.<\/p>\n

I’m sorry about the long silence, but at the same time I’m excited to get to posting again. I hope I haven’t lost all my readers to this break \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

So let’s just put some links at the end to remind you:<\/p>\n
