6 September 2025 / And so it begins...

It's time. I finished Under the Dark of the Moon back in March. I've left it sitting untouched since then. Now it's time to start editing. It's 101,128 words, divided into six parts, so this is going to take a while. Hopefully, not as long as the seventeen years it took to write the novel. This is the way.

31 August 2025 / The Fast Fading Light Blurb...Again

Trying again to get the blurb for The Fast Fading Light written, so I can finally get it published. Condense a 101,000 + word novel into 1 - 2 paragraphs, without spoilers...it should be easy...it's never easy!

Took a Mental Health Day today. Spent most of the day organizing picture files, and working on Under the Dark of the Moon. At least, I am when not falling asleep at my desk.

Stranger

When she joined EarthGov Security, Denise Bell knew she wouldn’t have an easy time. As an Enhanced Human, designed to have greater abilities and sharper senses, there was only one division in which she could serve. Or so she thought. Now, Denise is the first of her sort to serve in Division Two, mandated with operating on Earth and within the home system. She soon finds herself on her first big assignment. She has to infiltrate a terrorist camp, and determine their next target. What part does her batch sister play?

Stranger is available on Amazon as both ebook and paperback. Find it here - https://tinyurl.com/4aw43pp2

Trying to get back to journaling on a regular basis. Maybe it'll help bring the daily mental/emotional roller-coaster to an end. Never thought I ever use washi tape, though.

Wanderer

In her time as a courier with Division Five of EarthGov Security, Special Agent Alexandra Sinclair has gained a reputation for always completing her deliveries, no matter how difficult. When another division came to them with information to be delivered to an allied power, it was expected Alexandra would complete the assignment, as she always has. But she disappeared before making the delivery. Now, Division Five mobilizes to find out what happened to their wayward courier, and who leaked her credentials. With a squad standing by to make sure the information doesn’t fall into the wrong hand, Division Five rushes to bring their missing courier home.

With the help of Isaiah, can Helena save them all from the fate that is coming for them…as it had before…

Have to do some plotting before I can continue with Spiritus Mundi and Under the Dark of the Moon. So I'm turning back to another work in progress, In Thine Own Image, the story of Special Agents Harmony and Melody Moore, and their partner, Special Agent Wesley Jensen. It's another EarthGov Security story, set in 2191, about a year before Spiritus Mundi. When you can't write, then rewrite. This is the Way.

And so, back to Under the Dark of the Moon, Chapter Thirty-five. I don't usually make New Year's resolutions, but I will be working to get this novel finished. I know how it ends. I just have to get there.

Oh yeah, back to cursive, too.
