I sat down to write, with a fresh cup of coffee and a real desire to see what happens to Isidore next. Then I saw that we got another order (#265), and now I might be too happy to write. I mean, I will write, but as it stands I am in a good mood filled with good coffee with a lovely Spring afternoon tempting me to just run through the wildflowers outside. It’s hard to write about people in dire situations when you just want to twirl on a mountainside like Maria.
I have not been too diligent on these updates. Not by a long shot. So, the book is going, to say the least. Found out a few hours ago that the manuscript I thought was sent on May 4th, was in fact not properly attached. Yep, I forgot to attach it before hitting send.
It is currently in very capable hands, getting the love and attention it truly needs right now. I have someone looking at the overall content and structure of my story. After this, I will then hand it off to Inkshares, and then the copy editing can begin. The final draft before submission was sent on May 4th, and let me tell you, the 4th was strong with me that day. To have realized that I botched the attachment on Friday the 13th also serves as quite the coincidence.
Besides all of that, I will be meeting with a comic artist to discuss possibly adding a graphic element to aid in the telling of my story. The goal for U-Turn, in the nearest future available, is a graphic novel treatment. Seeing these characters broken, bloody, and lost on pages of ink and color will be the right way to go. I very much sit at the edge of my seat for this day to come. Speaking of graphics and pretty pictures, I have created a cover I am extremely happy with. You can view that on the book’s FB page: HERE
It sums up the essence and sheer drive of what crossing the proverbial synapse means in my novel. The character literally is melting into his own psychosis until he is just another washed away puddle of the road.
Oh! I won a contest, an Inkshares subscriber contest. That is right, you read that correctly. I was thrown into the drawing of a fancy shirt and mug for pre-ordering Tal M Klein’s hard scifi, The Punch Escrow . I won. I won! How sweet it is. His book, it is going to be amazing, and has been the top runner for Geek and Sundry. I would say more, but I do not want to risk having this post shut down by International Transport.
So, there you go. You have been updated. The time is 4:33 AM and I sigh at the fact that I forgot to put away my leftover Mediterranean chicken sandwich. I really would not like to throw it out. It should still be good. Yep, still cold. Score. Lunch is saved...for now.
One last thing, if anyone reading this is interested in checking out a little more of my hell bent thrill ride, give yourself a treat by purchasing a copy. You shant regret it.
Checkmate and Rummy my dear gladiators.
