And Now For Something Different…
This Friday, February 12th, I’ll get interviewed on Living The Dream with Curveball as I discuss how I got into writing, my books, and how I dealt with my stroke.
Chapter 18

Chapter 18 written and edited. Only 4 more chapters to go, and hopefully, these should move along. Once [the quiet] is finally written, I’ll be looking for beta readers. Stay posted for more details!
Science!

I didn’t realize this novel was going to turn into a science research project. Had to learn how lasers work and do a refresher on the Copenhagen interpretation of light particles. Aside from killing off a couple of characters, this has been the best part of this novel.
Raul

Raul Escobar is third in command on the Dunfrey ranch and is a key translator between the English-speaking Dunfreys and the Spanish-speaking ranch hands. He’s about to make a key decision in [the quiet].
Looking Glass

We’ve reached a key point in [the quiet]. What is Looking Glass?
Some New Additions

I was finally able to finish Chapter 15. Writing’s been a little difficult for me as I’ve been pulled in a few different directions lately. But, here it is, written and edited. So, our gang has had some new additions, and everyone is a bit tense. This chap is leading our new group. Will he have some answers? Wait and see!
Mike

Finished writing and editing Chapter 14 of [the quiet]. Mike Dunfrey is really trying to keep it together on the ranch. It’s a shame he has no idea what’s going to happen. Also, is there going to be a chapter where Rayne doesn’t get yelled at?
Morning Rayne

Edited Chapter 13 early this morning (3am) and got Chapter 14 to a good start. About 2/3 done with the first draft of [the quiet]. Almost there! I feel as crazy as Rayne’s hair this morning!
Tomás

We finally get a look at ol’ Tomás in action. Boy, is he one raggedy-looking, beat up cat! He learns the secret of [the quiet] in chapter 13. Wait, isn’t 13 an unlucky number? Time to edit in a couple of days. Almost there!
The Link

“Parry” Ten Bears has found an important link in his conversation with Coyote and his special “tea” in chapter 12. [the quiet] is going to be especially important for the future. You will definitely need to read this one!
Who Is The Smiling Man?

Whoa! Even after a late start, I finished one whole chapter today! Chapter 11 written, now awaiting to be edited! And who is the Smiling Man?
The Shape

Chapter 10 of [the quiet] is officially in the books. The first (well, second and third, really) casualty of the book is down. Pedro just should’ve let the chickens fly the coop. What’s with that shape anyway? Oh well; Pedro’s mom found that they “all float down here”.
Sarah

Wow… I can’t believe I wrote that scene. I feel awful for Sarah. But, this one antagonist just wanted to show how nasty he is. But, that’s ok; he WILL get his just desserts.
Nellie

Meat’s meat, and evil’s gotta eat. Things are about to warm up. Time to edit, then on to chapter nine!
Azzid Rayne

Put out 1,886 words today. Not bad for a half day’s work. Rayne is turning out to be quite the oddball character. Quirky in contrast to the other characters. What would you expect from a girl with rainbow-dyed hair? #thequiet

Raynebow Byte

Finally! Chapter 7 wrapped up and edited. I think Rayne’s going to be quite the colorful (no pun intended) character in comparison to the other characters.
