It’s Like the Full Moon chapter 2.6 (wip)

Rebecca leaned her body towards Mr. Thornton shaking her head as to give the affect that she was amused by his comments, but she hadn’t actually paid much attention to a single word he’d said. She had become spellbound by the almost cinematic image of Mr. Thornton’s unexpectedly young, handsome, and robust son running towards them in a frantic hurry. Rebecca quickly cleared her throat as the son began to approach the restaurant. “He looks much younger than I had expected,” she said softly.

“Ah yes,” replied Mr. Thornton waving in his son, “It’s his burned to bear, that is the misfortune of being born to an old man. I was fifty-two years old when I married his beautiful young mother.” Just then, Paul arrived to their table. He stood up tall, front and center, across from Rebecca and reached out his hand after quickly wiping his glasses and hands with a handkerchief.

“How do you, I’m Paul,” he said simply.

Eternal Curse: Battleground chapter 3.2 (wip)

Just as Mira sometimes needed a little more to be happy living at Sinclair Manor, I sometimes needed a little more to feel fulfilled in my purpose and calling. I never tried to hide anything from Mira, but I did always try to protect her feelings, even though she was stronger than even I sometimes gave her credit for. I told Mira of my intentions to reach out and help people. Mira wasn’t afraid that I’d get hurt or even that I would hurt someone else, but she had so many concerns. She unconditionally trusted in my ability to control my actions, but she feared for the unknown.

WIP Update 10

WIPU

I hate to disappoint myself and, of course, any of you who may be reading this, but I do not have much to report on at the moment. I have been writing a little, but I’ve been busy elsewhere and have been working hard to keep up my daily posts. The biggest distraction I’ve recently encountered is, fortunately, something positive. I’ve been busy figuring out how to promote my book Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel, now that a release date has been set and I can start selling advanced copies. You can learn about that at my Pre-Orders tab.

Next month, I sincerely hope I’ll something worthwhile to report. I have so many good stories floating about; I’d love to be able to share a little bit of them with you.

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?
