The long dark....of editing

So here we are two weeks later, I'm hoping this becomes a regular type of thing, but unfortunately it may not.  I do have a full time job plus writing books you know? ;-)
Been working hard on the rewriting and editing of my next book, plus trying to write up a first draft of another.  It's like Grand Central station in my head right now, and everyone is elbowing to get to the front of the line.

The next book coming will be the first in my fantasy trilogy.  It's not based on anything in particular, but to describe it quite simply would be "ever wondered what it would be like if Hermione was in Harrys position?" 

It's a story about siblings, brother and sister, who come to find out that they are the last in a line of great wizards. Their family and others like them have been fighting for years against a dark force.  In the end, it will come down to the siblings to decide the fate of the world. 

It's a bit of an interesting turn for me.  As much as I have loved the Harry Potter series and those like (So You Want To Be A Wizard?), I've never seen myself writing something like it.  But here we are.  Sometimes inspiration just walks right up and socks you in the back of the head. 

Other times, you gotta go out and drag your muse home by the hair.  Such is the case with my other book I'm working on.  It's turning into quite the scifi opera epic.  We've got androids, we've got generation ships, we've got political intrigue.  I promise you though, I will NOT make you sit through three chapters of the Senate hearings.  (Sorry, George, loved the movies, but really?)

Well that's it for now.  I'm hoping I'll be getting ready to preview and soon publish the fantasy novel by end of this year.  Keep your eyes and ears open and of course 'like' my facebook page for any updates.

So long and thanks for all the fish.
