I can’t believe Shore Leave has been over for a week already! McKay and I had a great time at the “Meet the Pros” event, it was so exciting to be able to talk to people and sign copies of Blood Bathory and Heart of Stone.Ā I hope we get to do events like that again, they are really interesting and fun.
On the writing front, I’ve been plugging away about Blood Bathory: Absence of the Sun. We finished the draft a while ago, but it’s our practice to put works of that length on the back burner for a little time before coming back and beginning the edits, just so that we can look at things with fresh eyes and pick up any flaws. I already see a few things I want to tweak in the main story line, but they aren’t major changes, mostly just additions to better explain what’s going on. Then we have to start filling in the subplots, which are sketched out but not complete, and then final edits and we should be ready to send it in to Torquere. š
The other thing we have in the works is a Gothic. I won’t say too much about it, other than *SQUEE* — GOTHIC! š As a huge H. P. Lovecraft fan, it’s really exciting to be doing something like this, which is different in a lot of ways from anything we’ve ever written before. I just hope it gets picked up and published. š
Happy Monday! I hope everyone gets off to a great start on their week!
