Yes it’s been a while; again! However, we’re getting there.
Proofing by my proof readers has begun on the latest book. The way it’s going to work is I’ll first
being sending the book chapters, one by one, to one specific proof reader for
spelling and grammar check. Then, I’ll
be passing those same chapters on to other proof readers to double check but
also for comment on story structure, characters, dialogue etc.
It feels good to know that at last, things are really moving
forward and will do so at a brisk pace.
I have chapters one to ten of Haldred Chronicles: Shade done
and dusted. Chapters eleven to fifteen
still need to be completed. For those
who have read my previous two books, this will come as a shock; my previous
books were only twelve chapters long.
Book three, put simply, needs more space for the story to be told.
The story is more complex, more detailed and involves more
characters. I hope, also, it will be
more enjoyable for you, the reader. It
just means I’ve needed more time to get my head around the plot and the
exceedingly tough and intelligence secondary Protagonist.
As with all my books, this book will be ‘Dual Narrative’ so
you’ll have not one but two points of view to follow.
Around the writing, Debs and I are doing well. We’re now married seven months and enjoying
this new routine of ours. We’ve just had
our first Christmas together as a married couple and now we’re in the process
of putting our house up for sale. We
hope to move sometime in the summer.
So that’s the update!
I wish all of you a somewhat late Happy New Year, and once this book is
done, expect another update.
Till next time!
