It's New Year's day as I write this and I'm sure that everyone reading this agrees that 2020 sucked. It wasn't the worst year I've ever had, but it was probably one of the worst years in recent history for the country and the world. So, here's to 2021!
I'm sure 2021 is going to be great compared to this past one. There's a vaccine going around. Shops can open. People can start eating out. And we can all gather with friends once again. I can't wait.
Things are going pretty good now with the follow-on stories to Sue and Jay NiS. I have two of them and I'm writing them together. It's easier this way because they need to be tracked together as they take place at the same time and with the same, mostly, people.
For a while I was in a rut with one of them but it's coming along really good now. I have the beginning and middle done (not really) for both. Beginnings and endings are easy for me and they just sort of flow right out so I'm not worried about the endings for either of the stories. It's the middles that get me. I've rewritten and rewritten the middle chapters of both stories, albeit one of them more so than the other.
I'm toying with publishing the beginnings soon for one story. I'll only do this once I've got the endings going. I'm also going to have an editor lined up first so I can run it by someone else before publishing.
I hope you're excited as I am about the new stories and especially about the coming year.
Take care, everyone. Stay safe. Get inoculated then go out there and have fun.
