Title for Book 2...
I finally started saving my "Book 2" file on my laptop as the working title for the follow-on to "Schism." Somehow it makes me feel like I'm making extra progress, which in a way is true...coming up with a title is very tricky, at least for me.
So...the working title now is "Ravin." Yes, that's a real word. An old and little-used word, but a Webster word nonetheless...look it up!
I like using old words from decades to centuries ago. Maybe it's my way of rebelling against the "short cuts" rampant in the English language of late (i.e., "lol," "omg," "totes,") Alas, I'm guilty of doing this, so maybe my love of old words is my penance.
Happy Reading!

World-building post
I get quite a few questions about how realistic I think my world-building scenario is in "Schism" and world-building in dystopian fiction in general. Those of your interested in my thoughts on this subject, check out this guest post I wrote this week:
