Well, Spring has come around yet again…or is it supposed to be summer? Technically, not until the 21st, but here in Edmonton, it has been really rainy. We had 30+ degree temperatures at the beginning of the month, but now, it’s pretty rainy. That is indicative of the change going on in my life too. I have to quit making it so long between updates.
Our church is going about a move, so I am having to move my paintings from there back home; there is no room right now because I have to declutter my home. It’s really tough to know they have to live in the back porch for now. I know this is a blog about writing, but some of those paintings are of a fantasy nature…thus, they could all be story ideas. Some of my marker paintings are, but it doesn’t matter as much for them because they have a portfolio. It’s sad.
I am working with some of that sadness in a way. I finally created a blog called “The Kent Chronicles.” I know that there is a series of books called that, but this is of a magical city called Kent. It’s loosely based on Edmonton Alberta Canada. The streets are not numbered though. They are names of people that have had an impact on my life in one way or another. The reason I call it the Kent Chronicles, is that we hear about what goes on in Kent through the journals of its citizens, starting out with Mary Anne DeRoss. I just have the intro up now, but I’m hoping to have the first entry up soon.
I have also made another addition to the boosounds blog. It’s about our community cleanup last year. I am hoping to continue to add to it soon.
Speaking of talking, or podcasts, I have finally decided to get working on the King’s Poetry podcast. I am going to do the intro tomorrow, and hopefully, next week I will have the first episode on the way. I will let you know when it’s up. As for the blog, another poem is up. The King’s Poetry is approaching 100 posts – not all of them first issues, but there is more to come!
Ok, there’s lots of news, but you might wonder, what’s happening with Fantasy’s Fancy? I might make that into a blog where I invite people to send in their short stories. I don’t know because I have enough work of my own. I’m thinking I might have to rethink the blog and make her the host…that way she, as a sprite can live without me visiting her. I don’t know.
What’s going on with Sword of Earth? I am finally working on it again, and I will be uploading my updates to google drive. I used to poo-poo the clouds, but now, I think that’s the best way to go. Five gigabytes is a lot when it comes to text. The complete drafts go onto skydrive. Why two? Then if something happens to one, there’s the other.
So there you have it – the weather, blogs, to my book – there’s a lot going on, not to mention editing my draft of Maidenhood sign. Keep coming back, and maybe you’ll see some progress. Do you want to hear my opinions on something? Just ask. I don’t know everything; what I don’t know, I’ll research.
Anyway, as Horsemaster says, “Great Terranna! It’s time to go!” May your journeys be safe, take care, and God bless.
