No Water

There’s no water release today by the local dam, so we can’t go paddling. In paddler parlance that means there’s no dam water in the dam fed river. Paddling humor. And once again it’s overcast, which (if I am honest) is my very favorite kind of day. Not so before the 10 year drought, or when I was a kid and wanted to play outdoors, but now it means something entirely different. Life of the planet. Future of the human race. And a great writing day or day for reading.

I am deeply into Jane Yellowrock’s world, and it’s moving a bit slower than I expected. When one writes a series, there is a lot of necessary info to remind old readers about, and to tell new readers — things that feel like info-dumps unless handled properly. So I have 20 pages, and spent yesterday getting ready to write today’s action scene. I’m ready. Jane is ready.

Hugs,
Faith

About The Author

Faith

A native of Louisiana, Faith spent her early years on the bayou and rivers, learning survival skills and the womanly arts. She liked horses, dogs, fishing and crabbing much better than girly skills. Still does. A love of history and ancient writings excite her even more, perhaps because she can trace her own family tree back to William the Conqueror's invasion of England in 1066, later to Sehoy III, an American Indian princess, and to the gens de couleur libre, the free men of color in New Orleans at the time of the War Between the States. As a girl, she fell in love with fantasy and sifi, reading five books a week, and wishing she, "could write that great stuff." Teachers in high school convinced her she could, and she's been writing ever since, with a desire to see ultimate good fight and defeat ultimate evil, and humans as part of the battle. Faith now shares her life with her Renaissance Man (Ren) and their dogs.
