So, this chapter went suspiciously well. Hmmm. I mean, my kitchen is a disaster. My kids went feral in less than a day. I didn’t shower… But writing the chapter went smashingly!
This is a lesson that I learned when writing Bane. It took a good year to get Therion’s story moving, and once it did, I focused on that to the detriment of everything else. Last night, I had been hoping to have repeat writing days (today, tomorrow, and Saturday) so that I could send my newsletter announcing chapters 6 & 7. Now, though, I think I need to slow down. Clean my kitchen. Domesticate my kiddos.
But, I did correct that whole carapace (back shell of a tortoise) vs. plastron (belly/chest of a tortoise) debacle. Whew.
Thank you for sharing your story! Everyday, I look forward to reading more.
However, I do realize you have a LIFE and those kiddos do need to be domesticated. 💕
Love the story arc and the ‘slow’ (see what I did there?) burn relationship development between Kin & Rez! And showering is overrated, unless you live with others! Then, it’s a gift to your fellow man! 😂
I definitely have to add things on the fly! I really view this serial as a first draft. I already know I need to rewrite the first few chapters to condense the beginning. Poor Kin, I keep flopping on his voice between formal and informal speech patterns. (Still not sure which one I like better…) But it is fun to explore writing this way rather than creating an outline first. Thank you so much for reading!!
I was trying to hold out for as long as possible to prevent being impatient for the rest of the story but today I caved and this is so good and I relate to Rez soooo much can you tell😄
I am so thrilled that you are enjoying it and that you find Rez to be relatable! I’m trying to keep steady (hehe, punny) at one chapter a week. **Maybe** increase to two chapters a week. (Fingers crossed!) Thank you so much for reading! I truly appreciate it!
I love that she is such a Badass!!!

Thank you so much for reading, Pamela! The kitchen is clean, I have showered, and the kids have been (mostly) wrangled. 😉

Love what you did there with ‘slow’! LOL! And I do live with others and bestow them with (mostly) daily showers. 🙂

Love the story it. Finding it fascinating how you are having to adapt to fix things or add them in on the fly.
