Good morning readers, writers, and BryonySeries fans!
I spent a lovely day working on The Phoenix (the first in the Limbo trilogy, which is part of the BryonySeries). And it really was most of the day.
Except for scheduling social media and taking a walk with Rebekah in the morning, answering less then ten emails/messages, talking to a my very first fan (who is now a dear friend) on the phone for an hour in the afternoon, and watching an hour's worth of Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms with Rebekah at bedtime, I spent the rest of the day writing, about ten or so hours worth.
The intent is to do the same today and, maybe more, since it's pouring outside, a lovely backdrop to writing fiction with vampire themes.
And after posting this blog, I'm taking a social media break today, too.
Below is some of the submitted content I posted on The Herald-News site over the last week. Skim through the posts and click on those that interest you.
Have a wonderful day!
