Wolf: Blog

I am asking for your suggestions, ideas, and so on regarding Book 8 (or more) in the Loosening Up series. I think I've incorporated most of the suggestions I got up to Book 6, but now I'm ready for new ones. Several of my readers have mailed a couple and I thank you. I have them in my notebook.

Regards to All.

This one is for a change of pace relative to Loosening Up, which has been ongoing the past two years. (I am working on Book 8, BTW.)

FYI, the story is 21 chapters long as Doc and Jasmine collect a few friends and carry on in what you'll see is a predictable way.

Enjoy

The Lithium-Thallium batteries written about in the story are fiction. The characteristics of batteries like those written about in the story are the quest of multiple companies, universities, and research labs around the world, at least according to my authorial research. Some places have made progress only what they have been able to develop are yet cost prohibitive to bring to market. Someday - soon - however, researchers will overcome the issues preventing them from bringing them to market as cost competitive. The past is prolog to the future.

Several of you have written that 'my' batteries are too pie in the sky. True, but someone will do what I've written about, probably by 2030, AND it is that timeframe that I have chosen to at least write about that technology in my fictional story.

The technology in this and many areas is exponentially exploding as more and more researchers add their focus to the subject. The batteries of the future will not resemble those we know today.

Before Book 5 gets to the last sentence, I have to comment because I am sure that some readers will totally pan where and how this book ends - a cliff hanger, of sorts.

I assure my readers that no animals or humans, either fictional or real, in the writing of my work or in the plot lines of my work. I believe in happy endings, although some characters may suffer some pain from misunderstanding a situation. There may even be some regression to 'Pre-Circle' mores and values.

Thank you for reading this, and continue to enjoy the story. Book 7 is alive and well and being worked on every day or so on my computer. When I get deep enough into it, it'll start to appear on SOL.

Namasté

OK. OK. OK. I KNOW I have too many characters in my story Loosening Up. Instead of writing separate stories I just kept adding characters. I do think I'll soon get to a spot where I stop on Loosening Up, or at least go on pause. I have a few notes (some from some of you) with story suggestions, including focusing on one or two of the characters in LU in a special way. They're good ideas (yours).

I've started on Book 7 as of 12/31/2018. Yes, there are a couple more character additions. SIGH! I'll try to taper down. My New Year's Resolution.

Happy New Year
