Full Moon WIP Updates

WIP Update 07

WIPU

**Cover Reveal!!!…Tomorrow!!!

🙁 Sorry if I got you all excited, but I wanted you know that I’ll be revealing the new cover of Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel tomorrow so I can focus on this WIP update today.

I’m asking that any and all who happen to stop by tomorrow, please, leave a comment about the cover. I really want to know what you think. Good, bad, weird, or how does it compare to the older covers if you’ve seen those?

Now, here’s the update:

Distraction is bad word I try to not say for fear it will overtake me, but I’m afraid it has. I’ve been distracted by a great many things including getting back into the rhythm of going to a day job every weekday. So, for that reason this update isn’t as robust as I would like for it to be, but I do have a few tidbits to share.

I’m still making headway on Soloman’s Swords and am finishing up Full Moon to the point where I think I’m ready to read through the first draft from beginning to end to see where more needs to be added. I never realized how difficult it would be to conclude this story, but after building up the characters and the intertwining of all the relationships, it is almost emotional. I’ve never been a love triangle kind of person, I just don’t like them, but that’s exactly what I’ve written here, and I’ve taken it to a level I never thought I could…Don’t jump to conclusions. Remember you’re in the PG/PG-13 zone here.

I’m am actually happy to announce that I’m working with a few of the authors I’ve interviewed on a little project that I think will prove an interesting and entertaining read for book lovers.  Think “conversations in a book” with excerpts and you’ll be close, but this isn’t going to be some drab list of Q&A and a blah excerpt at the end. More on that later.

Still working on my short stories, maybe next week I’ll have an update on that.

Feeling a little lost about what’s going on in this post? Just see the side panel and search My Topics, WIP Updates, to get all caught up. Also check my WIP tab to see what else I may be working on.

Do you have a WIP update to share?

Thank you for taking the time to read this post. If you like it let me know and share it with others. See you next time, Toi Thomas. #thetoiboxofwords

FM Files Full Moon

Character Files from the ToiBox 26: Rebecca aka Becca – Bio

FM-B

nofemaleBiography:  Subject FM 1-Becca

Rebecca Tinsdale is born to a wealthy family that eventually breaks up and teaches her first lesson on life, nothing lasts forever. Rebecca is not an optimist, but she’s also definitely not a pessimist. Seeing her parents divorce at a young age didn’t cause her to disbelieve in love, but losing the one man she ever loved, did.

Rebecca is surrounded by people who love and adore her and as long as no one speaks of romance, she’s happy. She’s a devoted daughter, sister, and niece, and even though she’s been in a steady relationship for about seven years, she knows it isn’t love and has no intention of getting married. Of course her intentions account for nothing when her beau goes and asks her to marry him.

Luckily for Rebecca she has a best friend who’s always there to help her keep a grip on reality. Rebecca has a lot to deal with: family drama, friend drama, and now relationship drama, but she handles it all with grace. Turning thirty didn’t get her down in the dumps. What it did do was give her a sense of needing to settle down, not that she was moving that fast. The only problem now is decided who to settle down with.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post. If you like it let me know and share it with others. See you next time, Toi Thomas. #thetoiboxofwords

TiTi Lucy replied. “I tell you it was the grace of God,” she said in an almost whisper. “We all know that I’m not the best driver, but that guy was totally drunk when he hit me. It was a miracle I wasn’t hurt. I ended up getting a nice settlement and a new car. I even took some driving lessons so I wouldn’t wreck Shelli the first week I had her… That’s my car’s name. It’s she pretty?” asked TiTi. They all stared at her new custom luxury SVU with all its sparkle and shook their heads as they smiled.
