Greetings folks,
Yes, it's me! I just got back to the face of the earth!
I've been very busy with my family over the last eight weeks, having welcomed a new daughter into the world. Other things have been occurring in my life as well. I have a new job (again). I've also still been working on getting FTLOP ready for publication, but it's not as simple as I thought.
I've been working with a guy (Hi Drake!) on a collaborative effort and it's going wonderfully! He's taught me so much about writing that I can't believe it!
Drake is working on a story based on one of the characters from FTLOP & B&P. Some of you might remember him, others of you will need to look him up. Remember FTLOP Chapter Eight? Brian took refuge at a friend's house. His name is Chris. For some odd reason, Drake asked if he could take Chris and make him his own story, and I agreed.
The title of the story is "Finding His Own". I was skeptical at first, but he quickly convinced me it was the best decision I had ever made regarding my writing (other than starting to write in the first place).
Not only is Drake a great writer, he's prolific as well. By the time FHO is complete, it will span over FIFTY chapters! So, when we get ready to open it up, you'll all have a LOT of reading to do!
Before you think you can skip this story, think again. This story and author have had a profound impact on the way I write. My eyes have been opened, as they say. If you liked Brian and Pete, you'll love FHO too. Trust me!
Anyway, during my editing of FTLOP, I have decided that Chapter Eight packed too much into one chapter, soooo....
I'm breaking it down into separate chapters. I'm much happier with the way it's turning out than I ever was with the original. Sorry to say, however, that you're going to have to wait for a while to see them.
Chapter Eighteen will be posted in due course. I haven't forgotten about HW either!
All of you can chill- I'm still alive and still writing :)
