Eden: Embrace the Dark

As the week draws on, naturally people lose their will to work, but a surprise for me was that it was not terrible like it most weeks for me. I wanted to write Eden, but boy was it hard to continue after the brilliant way that the previous chapter ended. I still get chills thinking about how well I can write when I am passionate about it. Not that I am not passionate about writing, but some days there is work better than other days.

Crucible: The Crowning

I cannot state how much I love to write. It is the one thing in life that gives me real enjoyment from doing it. Sure, I have tried to have a couple of relationships, but they broke down because the other person did not have the drive and determination to make it work that I did. I use that same drive and determination to progress my books each and every day that I get out of bed.

Crow: I Swear I Had A Word Limit

The word count for this week tells the entire story of my work for today. I don't understand what tempted me to write so much, but it felt good to get it all out. I think I got so caught up in the drama that I didn't care about sticking to my plan. I see it as a good thing as opposed to a bad thing. I didn't raise the bar for next week, but I did afford myself a lot of new material to build off of.

Ascension: Hitting the Ground Running

After a well-deserved break and a fantastic Week of Samples, I dove back into my writing this week and felt like I never skipped a beat. The words that came out of me today flowed with elegance and ease and I am glad I decided to take my break. It also helps that I could finally crawl into the right side of the bed last night (literally and figuratively) so I got a really good sleep and woke up more spritely than I have all year.

Eden – The Prologue Chapter

Eden uses a different approach to Novel Writing. Instead of using dedicated chapters for specific events, I chose to use sections to encompass a variety of events, as well as to show where the story really changes. The Prologue is innocent enough and not much happens, but it is a beautiful component of my writing. Enjoy.

Ascension – Chapter One: Ambush

As part of my break this week, I promised my audience that I would post a sample from each of my books for their respective days. I start with the first book in my queue, Ascension. The first chapter from it is Ambush and it serves as the entire backdrop to the entire novel. I hope you enjoy.
