So for those of you who might not be aware, every November is National Novel Writing Month. I’ve never done it before, never heard of it until the last few months, but this year I’m going to give it a shot. The goal is to write the rough draft of a 50,000 book in November. I’ve been planning, (and planning and planning) a fantasy novel, Obsidian Sun with an alternative bronze age setting, and of course cool magic. This is going to be really different from my normal contemporary characters. So here’s a rough teaser for the series.
Anan returns from a hunting trip to find his clan decimated and the children taken by slavers. The only survivor to the attack is Terja who is one of the spellspinners. As a spellweaver, Anan recognizes he needs Terja’s talents to form the other half of the clan’s magic and rescue the children, but he’s never been a leader before, and Terja is a trembling mess. Can they meet the toll of a bloodweaving and rescue the future of their clan, or will their own demons destroy any chance.
If you’d like to follow along or want to buddy me, just go here. I’ll try to keep you posted on how it goes.
Wish me luck, we’re gonna let’r buck as Mitch would say.
