#ROW80 Rd 4 — Initial Goals

New round, new goals.  This is my fourth ROW80.  Whew!  But, it works, so I keep coming back.

This round, I have a LOT on my plate with my debut novel looming just around the corner, so it’s not going to be too writing-centric.

The writing I do plan, however, will be heaviest in November for NaNoWriMo–whatever I plan to do to get those 50k words–lighter in October and December.  Those months will mostly be prepping for November, editing (The PURE and my other manuscripts) and pre-publication duties.  I will still write, but the tasks will be short–blog posts, short stories, that sort.

This round probably has the highest potential of any I’ve done so far of requiring tweaks along the way.  No biggie though, right?  That’s the nature of the ROWnd.  🙂

My goals are on my ROW80-4 page.

The Linky site lists other participants’ progress reports.  Give them some encouragement too.

Six Sentence Sunday — My Fair Vampire

Welcome to my third “Six Sentence Sunday”. Thank you for visiting and especially for any comments you might leave me.

This six comes from an urban fantasy novel I completed a first draft of late last year, book 1 from The Land Of Enchantment series:  My Fair Vampire.

In this scene, newly created vampire, Dori, and her vampire sire, Donovan, have it out after he reveals the truth about her dead mother.

I advanced on him.  “All this time I thought I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, that you’d preyed on me at random.  How fucking random could it have been if you knew my mother and knew about me!”  I slapped him across his face, hard, but he showed no sign it affected him any more than the brush of a butterfly’s wings.

“Feel better?” he asked.

“A little.”

I plan at least two more novels in the series:  My Fair Phoenix and My Fair Gargoyle. The world needs more urban fantasy set in the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico!!
