Babble On!
Past Shadows:
A little over 6,000 words will see me meeting my word count goal for Past Shadows. Sounds like real progress, huh?
I wrote an entirely different first chapter, so the excerpts I previously had on my RB portfolio? They’re now located in Chapter Two. Don’t worry, I think I started it off with an even bigger bang, lol. The strip club scene was good - I did relocate it, after all- but the new opening scenes are better.
At least, I think so.
I’m actually just about to start Chapter Two re-writes, and I’m beginning to think Past Shadows might surpass my word count goal by more than a few hundred words. Guess I’ll just have to wait and see, huh?
I’ve unparked ShadowConnor.com and put up a quick page for it. Click here if you wanna see it.
I might just get creative with it later, when I have the time to. In Feral Intensity, the site’s mentioned, and it’s owned by Annalise Johnson, the young reporter than Shady can’t stand. Annalise worships Shady ( or does she? Hm, there’s a thought. Shelve it! You have enough books lined up for the series right now! ).
Anyway, where was I? Oh, yeah. Annalise’s version of the site covers Shady’s entire bounty hunting career. It has news stories, videos of Shady singing karoke at Rose’s Bar, and photos the sneaky reporter has collected. That’s in addition to articles Annalise has written that weren’t published in the Herald, which is the paper she works for.
Videos of Shady singing karoke. That could be difficult to create, since I can’t sing a lick. It’s not like I’m going to run open auditions to find a singer, right? Hm. Maybe I will. IF I find the time to get creative later. Heh.
I gotta get back to work. Chapter Two is screaming my name.
Oh, Rising Moon update: My Story Tamer has sent back the first five chapters. Seven to go, but the holiday is upon us, so she’s busy with family until next week. So, it might be a little longer than I mentioned before it’s released.
But not too much longer. ![]()
