Me: Hey guys...I have some great news, and some bad news...
Ash: If you ask which one we want to hear first, the answer is rather obvious.
Thallus: I already know what both news is.
Evrem: What?
Thallus: She'll tell you soon enough.
Me: Well the great news is that I finished Black Light!! Yaaaaay!! *grins* It's my sixth book that finished! I really miss writing it but that's not the bad news...
Naem: Just tell us already!
Me: ...
Ash: Oh...I think I know...
Evrem: You guys are totally killing me.
Thallus: Look around the room.
Naem and Evrem: *glance around* Yeah, so?
Ash: *rolls eyes* Is someone missing?
Evrem: Well Jrey isn't here...
Naem: He hasn't been here for a while though... *gasps* Did he die or something?!
Me: No, nothing like that.
Naem: ...umm...Jafen's not here?
Evrem: Kaeri's sick but I don't think that's the bad news either.
Zeth: I can't believe how stupid you two can be sometimes...
Thallus: Sage isn't here.
Naem: Oooooohhhhh.
Evrem: *eyes widen* Did he die?!
Ash: No one died Evrem.
Evrem: ...well so what he's not here? Big deal!
Thallus: You haven't read the ending of Black Light, have you?
Evrem: ...no, but that has something to do with this, doesn't it?
Ash: Obviously...
Me: We can't say what happened because that's be a humongous spoiler...but Sage has been a little depressed lately because of the ending...
Thallus: You need to start the sequel soon.
Me: I know! But I can't figure out how to start if off...and that part is usually the easiest for me.
Thallus: At least this time you know a lot of what's going to happen this time, usually you have no clue at all.
Me: Yeah...once I figure out how to start it, I'm going to write it as fast as I can. It's not going to be quite as long as the others I've written, but there's a key thing I want to happen and that's the only reason I'm writing it. If I hadn't have that idea, the ending of Black Light would have been very different...of course then I'd have to change a lot of things...
Slade: You still haven't gotten around to revise/editing my story...or picking up the sequel.
Me: *sighs* Yeah I know...
Jafen: And mine still has to be completely rewritten...
Me: Yes, yes. I have a lot of work to do. That's why once I finish writing the sequel to Black Light, I'm going to let Sage and the other characters in his books take a long well-deserved break while I work on/finish up other stories that I paused and finished.
Ash: You don't have a title for the sequel yet do you?
Me: ...not yet...I'm still trying to think the right one up...Something along the lines of The Emerald Flame but I want to change it to make it more intriguing.
Ren: Why Emerald Flame?
Me: That's a secret. ;) Oh! Another idea I had a while back was to post a few of my random scenes that I've written up over my process of writing. A few I'm definitely keeping to myself but there are some that are rather interesting. Most of the time I just get a random idea and have to write it down, so I do, but sometimes it's a little strange... *sighs* And this post is running a little short again...
Zeth: Not your fault.
Me: I know...hmm...let's see...do I have a short daydream that I wrote?
Evrem: What about that one with Carson in it? The bully from one of your RPGs, right?
Me: Yes that's who he is...but that one...I'm not going to share. It's a little depressing and dark because he as a pretty horrible past. But he is a rather interesting character actually...
Ren: I wouldn't want to meet him...
Jafen: He's definitely one of those people you don't want to meet in a dark alley...
Me: Yep, but deep deep down, he's actually not that bad...he just needs to find a better way to deal with his anger.
Ren: Totally...
Me: AH! Look at the clock! I have to go!
~N~
Emerald Flame - Cool concept.

ReplyDeleteMe: ...I did say that, didn't I? ...well plans change. ;)
