I love lithadora, both for its name and its little blue flowers. They’re so cheerful and vibrant, especially in sunshine. This picture has JJ Abrams-level lensflare, but it pleases me to no end, so I’m sharing it with you.
I’m ten chapters into the Chained Knight revise, and there’s good news I can’t share quite yet–nothing is final until the ink is dry on the contract–but I feel a lot better than I have in ages. It’s looking like there will be releases in June (Fall of Waterstone), September (Gamble), next Jan-Feb (will be able to announce it soon), and now that Chained is behaving I’ll probably schedule it for next March or so. It’s a while to wait for another Tale of the Underdark, but that’s all right. Honestly the portal fantasies are a passion project, though I’ve been surprised by the response to Moon’s Knight and am ever so glad I listened when my beta readers insisted the tale was good and would find the readers who needed it.
Go figure, portal fantasies about trauma and healing apparently like to tear themselves out of my head. Weird and painful superpower–if it indeed qualifies as one–but I’ll take it.
Once the revise on Chained is done, there’s the Highlands zero to finish and revisions on Doom of the Elder in the queue. I could go on and list everything after that, but this Friday post is already long enough, I’ll be working through the weekend (as usual), and yesterday’s rain means there will be an explosion of growth to inspect while ambling with a very nosy Boxnoggin.
See you next week!
