Noticing the absentmindedness that intense drafting can bring, and thoughts on whether ALL scenes in a story need to move the plot forward. Associated thoughts on cheesecake, sparkly nails, my plans to sew an evening gown, and other things that make us happy.

How to work through those sluggish writing weeks with low wordcount and why having a writing habit is key especially then - and how creativity is more like a complex biological system than math. Also my first mention of the mutated robin that hangs around here, about Hopeful Monsters - both the evolutionary theory and my story (which you can find here: https://jeffekennedy.com/hopeful-monsters/). Photo is Jackson on David's lap in the new recliner. Jackson loves to sleep at an angle, paws down, so this new set up gets big points from him.

Some thoughts today on how to handle those New Shiny ideas when you're supposed to be working on something else. Also about being social, getting to see Amanda Palmer in concert during SFWA's Nebula Conference- plus staying home to get the work done. If you're interested in the signing I'm doing Saturday, January 26, 2019, with Darynda Jones, there's info here. (Though that link is nonspecific to THIS signing, so if you're coming from the future, you likely won't find it.)

Busy day yesterday with cover reveals for two different Sorcerous Moons books - a new release and a French translation - the SFWA Fantasy Storybundle, chats and giveaways for WARRIOR OF THE WORLD. It never rains, but it pours, yes?

You can find the Storybundle here.

Exciting news about the cover reveal and release date for ORIA'S ENCHANTMENT, book #5 in the Sorcerous Moons series. (At last!) Also ruminations on dedications and my grandfather. I can't find the poem I mention and now it's bugging me. I thought it was James Wright, but I don't see it in my collection of his poetry (though I thought for sure it was in there). Does anyone know what I'm thinking of?

I'm happy today because copy edits for THE ORCHID THRONE went swimmingly yesterday, and are done! Talking a bit about a debut fantasy romance coming your way from Maxym M. Martineau, along with random musings on quilting, sewing, a new grandchild on the way, and why we have to focus on certain activities and give up others.

I'm excited to report today that I've finished Oria's Enchantment! I'm also sharing the title of Sorcerous Moons Book #6, telling how Minerva Spencer fought a blizzard in white jeans, and about having drinks with Katie Lane.
