On Writing...

While work on An Emperor's Gamble continues, I'll admit - I've gotten a bit sidetracked by a secret project.

I know, another secret project...

I tend to be one of those writers who wants to follow where the inspiration leads. Usually, I'm pretty good about writing down the idea and setting it aside until I have time for it and continuing with current series.

But that's not the case with every story - for example, it was the same way with A King's Bargain. And when this idea struck, I knew I had to grab hold of it while it was still fresh.

Considering I've already written roughly a third of the first book, I think it was a good decision!

It's quite different in some ways from Legend of Tal, but those of you who are fans of that series should find plenty to enjoy in it. This new book has adventure, archery, sorcery, and an emotional rollercoaster for the protagonist, all in a world that you'll hopefully find intriguing.

Enough teasing for now - I'll let you know more as I can! And An Emperor's Gamble will follow closely on this one's heels!

Personal Update

In the evenings, I've been playing Last of Us 2. I've always enjoyed video games, but have found myself spending less time with them in recent years as writing and other interests took precedence.

But LoU2 is absolutely gripping. I've heard of complaints from some folks, but as far as I'm concerned, it's been fantastic. It features incredible characters who feel distinct and real, and their development is both heart-rending and satisfying. But I wouldn't recommend playing it before bed. Adrenaline and sleep do not mix!

Also, for no particular reason, check out this ridiculous picture of Zelda. Oh, cats...
