This may take a while for me to get over. Those of you who have been with me for a while know I do not release books rapidly. When writing a novel, I take the time to reflect on every sentence to ensure it conveys the right emotion and meaning.
So, please forgive me for still celebrating the publication of my latest story Elthea’s Nemesis. During the rest of the year, I have little hard news to speak about. After all, there are so many times I can say, “I’m still writing (or editing) a manuscript. So stay tuned for more.”
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy putting words on paper, but describing it is about as thrilling as watching paint dry. That is, unless you’re another writer, in which case we can endlessly discuss placements of commas, how to avoid the passive voice, and many other fine points of grammar.
If those things interest you, please join me when I get together with other authors. Our discussions are a real hoot. Who says writers aren’t fun people?
But it’s not a life for everyone. Writing can be a solitary endeavor. Publishing, however, gives us a chance to shout out to the world.
Here’s a big thanks to you for continuing to follow my author career, especially during one of these high points in the journey.
All the best,
John
