Steve Manuel His words were so convincing he fooled them into believing he best represented their best interest. The votes were counted, and they knew not what they had done.
Steve Manuel This is a tough question. Fantasy authors have always fed my imagination. Roger Zelazny's Amber was the world I cut my teeth on. However, Anne McCaffery's Pern is the place I'd wish to be. As for what I would do? I'd live there just to see what came my way.
Steve Manuel Currently I am reading the Many Headed Hydra by Peter Linebaugh. Enjoying it so far. Additionally I have started the new Benedict Arnold Biography by Joyce Lee Malcolm. I eagerly await the next Dragaera novel by Steven Brust.
Steve Manuel I make eggs Benedict. The stress of trying to make a poached egg and warm hollandaise come out at the same time always centers me.
Steve Manuel The release. If you do not get tied up in the idea of being "published" and write for you, it is quite cathartic.
Steve Manuel Write, and associate with other people who are writing. A uniquely supportive group. Also try your hand at poetry.
Steve Manuel More Historical Fiction. This adds some elements of Fantasy as well. It will be a long series of books/stories which begin when America was first colonized.
Steve Manuel In moments of boredom a bit of dialogue may appear. A character gets locked in my head. Often when I am working in old manuscripts and uncover some hidden history I feel it would add to a compelling narrative.
Steve Manuel As a child I loved Arthurian Legend. Mary Stewart inspired me with her telling. I devoured every story from Steinbeck to Twain, and everyone in between. No one ever discussed what happened after Arthur was killed. I wanted to write that story.
