I like to think that my lack of new material lately is simply my mind's way to relax itself before the madness that is NaNoWriMo. November is almost upon us and I have once again decided to take up the challenge. It won't be easy, November is already a busy month for our household. I have a daughter turning three, a guest author appearance at Old Firehouse Books, a house to sell, a move to make, and a wife to dote on.
My plan is to write at night and in the early morning, while said wife and daughter are still sleeping. We will see how that goes. If that doesn't work out, I will have to bail on our weekly Netflix fix. I love Grey's Anatomy and Nashville just as much as the next guy, but sacrifices have to be made.
I want to assure you that despite my absence from the Scriptorium, I have been doing some writing. I just don't have anything to throw up here that can stand on its own. But I feel James Ratabaugh knocking around in my head, Alyssa Lattimer is going stir crazy, and the denizens of Saerna have many stories to be told.
Did you notice that I mentioned a guest author appearance? You should come. Friday, November 7, from 6:00 to 7:00 PM, I will be hawking my wares and answering questions from all my fans (that's right, my mom and dad are making the trip) at Old Firehouse Books in Old Town Fort Collins.
Oh yeah, to celebrate my guest author appearance, I will be offering free downloads of "A Song for Eventide" at Amazon.com. starting on Halloween and continuing through November 4. So please, download the e-book and give it a read. If you want to seek me out afterwards to give me accolades or raspberries, you know where to find me on the 7th. Maybe you'll want to buy a hard copy and ask me to sign it. I'll be thinking of witty inscriptions until then.
Thanks for reading,
JBL
