Chapter 2: The critic
THEAUTHORBLOG
Posted by THE AUTHOR, April 21, 2012 at 11:34 PM, in ANNOUNCEMENTS
I am back dear reader, I know, I know, you must be excited, but hold the cheers and applause for later as I have much to express.
.
.
Upon rereading my mid-stroke ramblings, most of which I shall forever hide from the light of day, I have found fortune in my misfortune dear reader.
.
While all that I said before regarding my tangents being meaningless and off-topic was true, sadly that was not the stroke’s doing, I believe that there is still some merit in there.
.
I do not yet know where, but I’m sure I’ll find it eventually.
.
.
In the meantime however let me revisit a topic I have been meaning to address. Over the last couple of months, you might as well say the truth, I have been nudging myself towards writing a book.
.
Do you remember reader, my promise to make the greatest, most awe-inspiring, joy inducing, and dare I even say it, climactic piece of fiction to have ever existed.
.
Ignoring of course the reality of subjectivity and unappeasable critics. Always there.
.
Do you, dear reader?
.
Of course you do, how could you forget. Very easily, I’d imagine
.
.
Well that promise still holds true, does it really, and I think I have made a breakthrough. You haven’t.
.
.
.
As I was meaning to say, I have during the last few days begun my conquest over one of the foremost problems an author can deal with, and no I’m not talking publishing houses, that’s a bridge to cross when/if I get there (doubtful).
.
No, instead I can finally say that my research phase seemed to have finally borne fruit and that I’ve fully overcome my creative blockade and started, don’t lie to yourself, writing my sure to be hit piece.
.
I hope the excitement is mounting for you dear reader, as it most certainly is for me.
.
With that aside I think I’m going to cut it short today, don’t want to overwork the proverbial workhorse after all. It's metaphorical, you donkey.
.
Hope to see you again soon dear reader.
Yes, hope see you again, ‘dear reader’

Bloodshard: Stolen Magic (COMPLETE)
Magic cannot be given away or rejected; it is as permanent as life itself. Not that I'd know anything about that. Magic is both impossible to obtain and illegal for commoners like me. So when I unexpectedly witnessed a brutal, deadly confrontation between two nobles, I assumed that was the closest to magic I'd ever get. Until I woke up the next morning with the unmistakable glow of power in my blood. My only hope is to hide who I am and somehow discover the truth of what happened that bloody night. And, more importantly, why. ---- 2020 nanowrimo project and [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Completed March 2021
