As you can see from my side bar, I’m participating in the A-Z challenge this year. This is partly to get me into the habit of blogging regularly. I started this blog with the best of intentions, but other things got in the way. And then it turned into a vicious circle: No one visited, so I didn’t write, so no one visited.

For this challenge, I’m going to be writing a bit of the background to the Chandris stories. I figure it may have limited appeal right now, but may come in useful if they start to attract more attention. So you’ll find snippets about the world, the locations, the characters and the themes, with no spoilers, naturally.

I’m working out right now who/what I’m going to tell you about, and it has served as a notice to me that I need to include more people/places starting with Q, U, V, and X (I have no clue what I’m going to do for them!) I have a side character whose name begins with Z, so that one was easier than I expected. So if the novellas and short stories I have planned around the novels have a load of characters whose names start with these letters, you’ll know I named them during April!
