Moving sucks!

But now that it’s done, I can get back into the groove and work that whole writing thing again. Waiting on edit feedback for Sources of Power. Then I’ll hammer that into final form while Sources of Power is going through editing. Good times.

Writer’s right to…write?

Lest anyone should think I’ve been slacking off, I most certainly haven’t been. But I do shift between projects enough to keep my interest up on all of them as best I can. Too much focus, get too close, and you lose perspective. Such is why I have other stories that need my attention!

Wance…Wance? …Wance!

How…how in the…I got nothing. I cannot even begin to explain how a V became a W. Really, there’s just no reasonable or rational or even possible explanation. It just…happened. I swear, one of these days, I will not find an error in the physical copy, and the print versions will be made available!

Oh, well. Covers are done(ish) for Sources of Power and Sources of Truth. Both the print and digital versions. I guess that’s something?

Truth and editing…

Seems like a never ending process. Read, scan, check, read, scan, check. Over and over. But another pass of Sources of Truth has been done, and improvements have been made. Better structures. Better flow. Cleaner, clearer writing. Hopefully, it passes muster.

Drifting steam drifting.

What a ‘great’ first impression. Chapter 2.  That’s all the further in a reader has to go to find at least one error (well, okay, not an error but a really obnoxious line). And I’ve got no one to blame but myself. I should have caught that months ago.

And to think, on a whim, while thumbing through a digital proof for Createspace, I stumbled across it. I got in there and fixed it (and then promptly updated the kindle version too). But still. It makes me cringe thinking about it.

On a lighter note!
