I have come to the realization that I've been working entirely too hard lately. I've been struggling with three stories; not knowing which was actually going to be finished first. As it turns out, a forth story that was in the first few chapters is complete! I'm polishing the manuscript now to send to my publisher; the three other stories are still laying in wait. Just when I think I have all the pieces to put the puzzles together, something else pops up to make me "rethink" the entire plot. Sometimes stories do that; in the end I'll appreciate the effort more.
Electric Rain is in edits now; I've been working on those for about a week now. Thank goodness there is plenty of time to get that done without having to dive head first into it. The Warrior King should go to edit soon; as of today I haven't heard a word about it from the publisher and I'm not going to rock the boat.
The laundry is piling up; patiently waiting. It sounds strange but these stories just won't "release" me so that I can go on with every day chores. But, I love it when stories demand to be written; not settling for the easy way out. The three stories in question should be really good ones; at least I hope so.
I'm doing some in depth research on a few things involved in one of those stories; if anybody out there is a Maintainer for military aircraft (Navy, Army, Marines) I'd love to talk to you. I've found that some questions can't be answered by reading the published information about the job. I like for my stories to be realistic; I don't want some military buff (much like myself) reading my book only to say, "That's crazy, any idiot would know that isn't possible in the military." So, if you know any military airplane mechanics who might be willing to swap a few emails please have them drop me a line at arlene.knowell@gmail.com. I would appreciate it.
Finally, Wildcat is still on the top 25 seller list on most ebook websites. For those of you who have read it, you probably noticed the set up for a third book. Rhett Globe is a hunk that deserves to tell his own story. So, enjoy the read and get ready for more.
I hope you all have a wonderful evening....drop by when you can. Thanks for all that you do!
