Hhhmmm

It has been three months now with no feedback. I'm beginning to wonder if I should find myself a literary agent and a new publisher. But within the same throught train there is a little man yelling at me to wait until the book fair is gone. Now the question stands...Do I listen?

Also within that very same train, just in another cabin, I have ideas for book 2. I know all the twists and turns; the ups and downs, and everything. But again the question is...Do I comply?

What is the use of having a creative mind, but the Muse has left the building? Oh boy, I feel like Scar from The Lion King: "Forgive me if I'm not leaping for joy. Bad back you know."

At least I found two destinations for book 2: Salem, NY & Cavendish, VT. I know that book 1 was too fast paced, I'm working on it. But I promise that Book 2; also known as The Memory of Cavendish, will be better written, with more detail and not so fast paced.

Hopefully everything will go my way this year.

The End

Well, the book has been written. It has been edited and now is published. What to do next? Well in my opinion, write another one while waiting response for the first one. I know it is a terrible idea. I'm waiting since end October 2011 for any news on my book, but unfortunately the sales are busy updating on the publisher site.

Then again, I suppose the fact that I have been selected to promote my book at the LA & Tuscan Book fair this year is a good sign as well as the fact that the publishers has sent it to Hollywood might give anyone hope, but the problem still is, that I have to wait. And I hate waiting.

Book 2: The Memory of Cavendish is in the writing process now. This one I'm going to make longer, considering that there are a lot more details to tend to. I would love some feedback about what everyone would like to read in a Faery tale story!

Don't be shy, just close your eyes and write what you feel. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

It is done!

Now I can really say finally!

I am done with it. Never thought it would feel this good. I have submitted it to the publishers and they let me know that they have received it and are busy with the edit. Now the only thing I can do is wait.

It seems as if the days are going to stretch on forever. I mean how long can 40 days be? Well long enough to make me anxious for one.

Finally

Well, it's been a long time!

I have finally finished....the cover! aaahhh! I wish it was the book though! I can't wait to get it published but then again it's taking forever to finish!

The thing is, well I think it's the problem, is that I am not just writing a normal fiction where I can BS my way through the book. There is an extreme amount of research done. Yeah I know I bring it upon myself, but I don't want to write a book that has no imagination in it. A good book has a good story line, a great book has a great background. Well, that's what I think anyway!

I have read a few books that has a really great story to it, but the imagination is lacking. It makes the story seem dull. Hope mine won't fall into that same catergory, otherwise....

Anyway, you can check out my new cover on various places:

Till later (Not too late though)

Lost the zest!

Who ever thought that writting a book is easy is way beyond wrong. Okay, yeah I did manage to write 1600 words in about 20 - 30minutes but that is not related to my book at all.

The last couple of months have been nothing but research, research, and the occasional coffee break. I wish I had the stamina to finish my book! I really look foward to it but the thing is, lately I have lost interest in everything. The things I'd normally google and spend hours reading and researching about has become dull.

What can one do to get the zest back into passion for something you love?

Progress

Ok, So I haven't done this in who knows how long. It's not that I didn't want to, it's just that I have been majorly busy working on my book.

There have been times when I had writers block, man, glad that is over, and then there are times when my things just disappeared! My laptop, my glassess, my memory stick etc. Sometimes everything takes turns to disappear but other times they all disappear together. I thinks that is why it took me almost 2 months to write chapter 3.

Now I am almost done with chapter 4, and I have sent in my cover page for editing! Can't wait to get it back.

Update

Hi All,

Just a short update, I was thinking the other day about my book. I can't wait for it to be published.
It is taking way longer than I would have thought possible, but then again they say that great things take time.

When I'm almost done I might think about it to add a little taste to the blog...
