Interesting as the current news is (?) I do tire if it rather quickly now so the impetus to continue writing my latest story is much greater. I am more of an outside type person and enjoy walking in the hills around East Lancashire with my partner and new rescue dog, Ollie. Unfortunately some of that freedom has been curtailed due to the current weather. The hills are far less accessible and my car tends to squirm around the road a little more than I am comfortable with; so its walks in the park for Ollie at the moment.
Concentration has therefore gone back to writing and I couldn’t be happier about it. Movement has been made on Akresha II with about 3000 words being added this week. I did struggle with the plot for a day or so and it was like being stuck on a corner and not being able to turn it, but that’s over with now and I moved on. The difference with Akresha II is depth. The first book lacked it so I am learning from that and adding as much detail as I can without dragging the story to a halt. Being that I write directly from my head, I have often image a scene so feel that I know it, forgetting that the reader hasn’t a clue what I am going on about. Not a good way of writing Sci-Fi as the world building can be complex to say the least.
Anyway… It is coming along and I hope to have something like a complete story by the end of January. All things considered I think this is a positive start to the New Year and hope all who read this are doing what they want to do in these trying times. Anyone who would like to read Akresha, it is available from Beaten Track Publishing & Amazon – Please follow the link.
