“He finally decided that he was insane, and there was nothing to do but obey the voices. He started walking west. The voices stopped. He kept walking west. They did not return. He walked west until he reached the ocean, and walking any farther would have led to his death by drowning. As he stood…

According to my goal for Round 3 of A Round of Words in 80 Days, I should have three chapters finished. I am just now finishing out the rewrite of my prologue. Looks like someone’s dragging her ass! I’m not too worried, though. I know that I habitually tend to get a little dragged down…

Despite all of my enthusiasm and excitement, Round 3 of Row30 is not off to the most successful start. Based on my goal, I should have the prologue of SiaC finished at this point; in reality, I have a page finished. So there’s at least something! To be honest, I’m not too terribly worried. It’s…

As I finally step forward and start my rewrite of Serpent in a Cage, I think it’s time to take a look at the second character out of the three the book will focus on: Locke‘s best friend and brotha from anotha motha, Gilferen Allok. This adorable little imp right here: Gilferen’s story has quickly…
