I focused this week on writing the sequel to "A Song for Eventide".  I am getting very close to finishing my first draft.  Since I don't have a stand alone story to put up this week, I am posting a chapter from Dirge.  This scene is from the perspective of one of the Mountain Wolves, whose kind made a devastating appearance in Song.  

If you have not read Song, I believe you can still enjoy this excerpt.  Actually, I hope it makes you want to go out and buy Song!  

Well I did it,  I wrote a Sci-fi story.  It looks like it has potential to become a serial, as there is a lot of ground left to cover.  Take a read and let me know what you think.

I feel pretty good about this short story.  I got the idea for it from listening to a story on NPR, "The Splendid Table", about the Stockholm Pie Company.  The lady on that show gets so into the food that it always makes me laugh, as if the food itself has some mystical power.  Perhaps it does.  Let me know what you think.

This is a short story I wrote recently.  I don't know what possessed me to write it from the perspective of a teenage girl (a foul mouthed one at that), but I did.  I started thinking on it as I watched my little daughter watching me get ready for work.  It has some strong language, so if you are offended by such, you probably shouldn't read on.

For right now, I believe this is going to serve as the prologue to the second book in the Lifestream Trilogy.  It takes the reader back to a time before Book 1 even starts, but provides a new perspective that will set the tone for Book 2.
