Sooooooo . . . getting up at 4am sucks! Getting off work at 1 or 2 in the afternoon? Priceless.
No writing on Monday afternoon due to the apartment investigation. The one we were looking at has been rented . . . dammit. We don’t want any others, but the […]

Another chapter complete

Last chapter Gwen stood up to Loomis’ bias about city kids having it easy and still failing to survive. This chapter was about the end of the day, giving the reader a glimpse into the Loomis household at story and bed time. Of course, Gwen is sleeping in Loomis’ room. And of […]

“Couldn’t the novel simply focus on the love between Anpo and Kathleen…and the conflicts would arise from some of the cultural practices and how they (Anpo & Ketlin and the Lakota) deal with them. Throw in some suitors for Anpo and see what happens. Can both husband and wife take a second mate? […]

Yesterday’s tally

Questions

Had some interesting questions emailed me yesterday. I thought some of you might want to hear the answers to them, and received permission to post them here.

Q. Last week I bought a copy from Amazon’s used books section. While at that site I noticed a copy of said book, the 1st edition [Tiopa […]

Today

Tiopa is back to the publisher. I’m told there’ll be another round of edits from a different set of eyes. Then we’ll begin working on Warlord Metal. (And I think that one’s going to need a little more work. The start is pretty slow. Don’t know how to beef it […]

P.D. Publishing is proud to announce that we will be publishing the following books:
Castle Walls, 2nd edition by D. Jordan Redhawk, available in the Summer of 2006. Also from Redhawk, Tiopa Ki Lakota, 3rd edition and Warlord Metal, 2nd edition, both available Fall 2005.

No writing today

Down the hall is a two bedroom apartment that’s opening up. We’ve already signed a year lease for the one we’re in, though. The wife spoke with the […]

Final tally

1081.
Whew!

Well, hel

I settled in my chair, devoured a Bismark, and got myself set up to enjoy some Morrocan Mint tea while I hammered out another one thousand words.

All Right!

Got a call from the boss at the bright and cheery hour of 6am . . . the evening supervisor (who’s still new enough that he’s wet behind the ears,) didn’t tell her of the scheduling issue. She didn’t need me if I didn’t want to come in. DUH! So no work […]
