Writing again + Glimpses of Goodness, ii

Posted on 17:23 by simmo
See this?



This is no mere notebook.  This is Aragorn, son of Arathorn.  You owe him your allegiance.  In all gravitas, this is the rewrite of Rosamunda, my historical fantasy book.  Those papers tucked in the back cover are the first draft (2/3), saved for reference.  I've tried before several times to rewrite it, but now my writer's block is finally gone and this is the real deal.  <3

My sibs deserve some credit, by the way.  My brother gave me the "finish the books you started!" lecture that I needed, and he helped brainstorm a name for a character in the sequel (it's gonna be a trilogy!).  My sister commiserates with me when I have author's angst and listens/contributes patiently to my chatty character analysis & plot twist discussion.  And she's a fan of my steampunk protagonist.  Which book I'm also going to start working on again. <3  (I'm also going to try posting more regularly at my writing blog.)

Excuse all the hearts.



Speaking of hearts...some of my latest 'glimpses of goodness'. Yeah, weather often makes it to the list.  What can I say--I love clouds.
