Well, That’s Done

Posted on by

Actually, Marta came first in a short story called “Treedle.” But the Long Look was the first in the Laws of Power series. I just didn’t know it was at the time. But, unless I have some sort of divine revelation, I’ve just wrapped up both their stories. The Final Chapter and Epilogue of The Seventh Law of Power are done. In rough first draft. I still have to do the rewrite. But I usually rewrite as I go, so I don’t expect it to take that long.

I’ll post when I have a publication date. I have no excuse for taking so long to get the darn thing done.

Progress Update

I’ve been getting a familiar feeling during the last few writing sessions on The Seventh Law of Power. Even if I’m not entirely sure how much is left, I know I’m approaching the end. Events start falling into place. So do the right people. I get flashes of an epilogue conversation. It won’t be this week or the next, but it’s within sight. I should probably start working on the cover, but don’t want to jinx it.

In the meantime, here’s the latest mythology video on YooToob. On the surface, “Gods Gone Wild” (Not the title). Really just a meditation on the obvious fact that the Greek Gods, like so many other pantheons, are a direct reflection on the culture that created them. Gods Misbehaving.

Monstrous Assistance

This is more overflow from the Yamada Monogatari series. Tons of research, only a fraction of which I used in the series. So not to waste it, here’s another YouTube Video. There will likely be more, so sign up over there if you don’t want to miss any.

And for those curious about the final book in the Laws of Power series, it’s actually coming down to the wire. Marta is very close to finding the Seventh Law. She’s going to feel very silly when she realizes just how close she’s been and for how long.

Post-It Note

For those not on the Reader’s List*, and just so you know, First in the Laws of Power Series,The Long Look, is having a special for the next five days, wherein it is completely free. This should be the case for all markets, but my login doesn’t let me verify whether it’s set properly for the UK, Canada, and Elsewhere. It should be, and I’ve queried Amazon to check.

For those who already own the book, I’ll try to make it up to you somehow. Probably by finally finishing the last book in the series as soon as possible.

*What I’m calling the mail list, because it’s what I’m hoping is a more accurate description of its intent and function…and if you’re not on it, why not?
