Or maybe I just need a bit of a breather. The writing has come very slowly the past few months as I work on Silas's story. Fortunately, I have a good outline of the series plot written, and it helps me pick up the story when I am ready to write I'm also finding that the slow pace gives me time to incorporate a few extra story details and features that come to me in brief moments of inspiration.

About a quarter of the first volume is in draft form, which gives me hope that the book will be ready for publication in February or March of 2018. I feel good about the story, but I m just not motivated to sit down with the laptop very often this fall.
