Warning: Political Comment follows update.
It is 2017; we made it into the new year, contrary to what some nay-sayers said.
J.E. Medrick’s Shackled, which I mentioned in my last post, is now live at Amazon, the only site I checked. Check it out; it’s worth a look.
My new fantasy offering, previously thought of as Dragons Run My Life, is now titled The Faux Princess. There are a couple things I need to resolve, but it’s nearly ready for a beta reader. I’ve also written a few thousand words of book 2, tentatively named The Voyages Home.
In the Beckie and Ian world, Low Places has grown to 50 000 words; still, several scenes seem necessary to hit the climax.
Some advice from friends in the UK argues that my inciting event in Princess (no matter the final name) is believable in the post-Brexit UK, so that’s now a thing I can go back to. This of course only applies to the inciting event, not to the balance of the plot; that’s all on me.
As of today, the four WIPs along with my plans for them, are
• The Faux Princess: 91 300 words, to beta reader by Jan 31;
• The Voyages Home: 2500 words, draft complete by April 30;
• Princess (A Beckie and Ian story): 51 000 words, draft complete by April 30, and
• Low Places (A Beckie and Ian story): 50 000 words, draft complete by Feb 15.
Political comment follows (reminder, read the words at the top about my opinions):
I feel no more confidence than I have since the election proved that
people will vote against their own self-interest. Amusingly (I suppose),
events since show that some regret… some of it. On the other hand, others, apparently, revel in it. I’ve read several attempts to explain the
rationale of people in Tennessee and Kentucky (the published reports
focus there) who depend on the ACA to work, to live, to, in words of one syllable, not die,
now complaining that the Republicans they elected (80+% of the vote)
are doing what they’ve said they would do: eliminate the ACA.
Except
of course they called it Obamacare, and he’s one of ‘those.’ One
exchange on Twitter was enlightening. Someone, clearly throughly and
well-indoctrinated, said (paraphrasing since I can’t find the actual
screen-shots right now) while agreeing that Obamacare must be repealed—destroyed—he’d
be okay because, you guessed it, he’s covered by the ACA, and nothing’s
going to happen to the ACA! Clearly, he believed what he was saying.
Which doesn’t make it true. I have full confidence that until it
happens, he won’t believe it. He may not believe it then.
Published reasons seem to boil down to racism, xenophobia and low education levels, all hallmarks of the "Grand Old Party."
So, that’s it from here. Next post recalls our trip yesterday to Women’s March Boston 2017 with 135 000 or more like-minded souls.

Wrap-up After NaNo
Congratulations to everyone who entered NaNo! I hope you met your expectations, and that, like me, you’ve donated what you can afford to help keep them going.
For me: Not bad. 62K words at the time RL stepped in, which is the best I’ve done to date. I was (kinda-sorta) fortunate in that I threw my back out, so for more than a week, I could only sit. That corresponded with our Verizon FIOS interface box dying, and being without TV (no loss for me), Internet (got rid of that time-sink at the expense of current news) and ‘landline’ phone (none of those ‘city-state’ calls that mean so much to us).
Therefore, I sat and mostly wrote when I didn’t gobble the OTC meds the Urgent Care recommended. Those had the usual effect—none—but since noticing the opioid epidemic, I guess they’re loathe to prescribe anything that might work, for fear all us mindless dolts become addicted. Oh, well.
Most of the NaNo words went to Dragons Run My Life, which I may make the series title, rather than the book. The Muddy Redhead might work for the book. I’ll see. As for the story, it’s nearly done, at about 82K words. More than I thought it would need. I played with some fonts for the paperback, and printed a copy to review in a week or so.
The balance of my NaNo words, some five or six thousand, went to Low Places, leaving me where I had to do some research to continue writing. I’m doing that now.
In addition, I wrote and posted a review for Emily Martha Sorensen’s Dragon’s Hope (see next earlier post). I still recommend it! Bene nota: her dragons and mine aren't the same!
Also, I edited and formatted Shackled for JE Medrick that I hope will be available soon. I’ll post when I get that word.

Some Catch-up
While I'm in the midst of editing Freedom Does Matter and working out a plot detail in Background Check that research proved isn't likely to happen the way I had written (damned research!) I thought I'd share some reviews that I've posted since the last time I did this. Again, these are in the order posted to Amazon.
Let it Snow! Season's Readings for a Super-Cool Yule! (Christmas book 2012) is an interesting, not quite eclectic, group of ten stories in the spec fiction genre. If you're familiar with these authors, this will be a welcome visit to their worlds and characters at this special time of year. If they are new to you, these stories provide a mostly fun, sometimes touching introduction to the unique worlds these authors have created.
While to me these all fit well under the spec fiction umbrella, that's not to say that they are all similar; they are assuredly not. The common thread is the Holiday Season, as the Foreward begins:
"Happy holidays and welcome to our quaint little holiday collection of zombies, crazies, fairies and treasure-hunters (and more)!" And snow, because here in the northern hemisphere, Holiday Season comes with snow... or the thought of it. The quote should give you an idea of the breadth good spec fiction can encompass.
For me, I hadn't heard of any of these authors, and I was happy to have a chance to expand my experience. Of the ten stories, nine were what I'd hoped for in opening this file. While the tenth story fit the collection: a story in the author's world set at a holiday dinner party, it was out of my comfort zone. Even at that, I think, for readers familiar with the world it is set in, it will add to their understanding and answer questions so far unanswered.
In the other nine stories, the characters brought me into their authors' worlds, whether a landfill, a mental "hospital" (it seemed that insane asylum would be a more appropriate, though non-PC, nomenclature), a parking lot in Arizona or a research lab in Southern California, and made the experience wonderful. Add to those an egotistical, arrogant dragon; how can you go wrong?
I started the book and for the first couple of pages, I worried that I didn't know enough about the back story to enjoy the stories. By the time I read another four pages, that fear was gone; I was thoroughly into the Landfill in Laurents County. I read straight through the collection--I did take a break to get a glass of water--and was sorry when 100% showed up at the bottom of the window. I wish I had sufficient funds to buy everything these guys write; it is good, with brilliant characters and clear settings.
I read this both on the Kindle for Mac app, and on the Kindle. In the desktop app, the cover looks quite nice; on the greyscale Kindle, almost as good. In the copy I read, there were a few typos and such; I marked the ones I noticed and put them in an email. A pleasant response came back, along with a note that they had been corrected, so you won't have to worry about those! I would have liked the table of contents to have entries for each of the stories, rather than just the midpoint, but not enough to mark it down.
I recommend this collection heartily to those who have read one or more of the authors, and even more willingly to adult fans of spec fiction who want to find new worlds. Buy it, read it. You'll laugh, and you'll cry.
Five Stars
I was a little unsure about Youth. The main character, Louise, is even older than I, so I was leery. If that's also you, rest assured that this is a well-paced, moving story, with conflict aplenty. Most but not all of the conflict is based in Louise's family relationships, with her husband, with her children and their relationships with her and, to a lesser extent, each other.
Don't be confused; this is Louise's story, and I found it heartbreaking, uplifting and probably more true to life than I'd like to imagine.
Other than being a love story, I'm unsure of the genre. It could be considered science-fiction, in that the necessary things could exist, though they don't yet. Or fantasy, if you believe they can't exist, have no scientific basis. Let's call it speculative fiction and say it is an excellent example.
Ms Medrick's descriptions are not lush; they are just right, not slowing the necessarily measured pace of the story, but providing sufficient clues that the reader's imagination can fill details in.
I won't spoil the conclusions. I'll just say that Medrick has enlivened the whole story with interleaved questions (I'm loath to call it a mystery), and the answers will hopefully surprise and please the reader. They did me.
I read Youth on a Kindle; there were a few formatting errors which did not take me out of the story. It's a small thing, but there is no table of contents. When I opened it on my Kindle for Mac, it was as good as the Kindle, except that the cover looked very good in color. However, on the Kindle, one chapter's formatting is quite difficult to read, and I've taken one star for that. In the desktop app, that same chapter is formatted the way I assume it was intended. Even with that problem on the Kindle, it is a wonderful read, and I recommend it highly.
Four Stars
This is the second book in the Poker Face Series, the first is Poker Face. Ms Sturman has created a little piece of her own world in a British setting, and the results are incredible. Unlike the first, this story plays more to Ruby's internal struggles, making it wildly different from the first one. I'm not sure what's left for Ruby to explore, though I'm sure Ms Sturman is!
This book has as much conflict as you could ever want in a thriller, legal or not. In The Puppet Master (Poker Face), there's little of the legal, but a boatload of conflict, almost all due to Ruby herself, though there are villains, more easily despised than dealt with, to spice up the mix. I found myself quite anxious through the middle of the book as Ruby, Danny and Alessi work through a major course correction for her, largely because I couldn't figure out how she would get through it. Also, I wondered what would happen next, since it was too early in the book for this to be anything but the appetizer.
The main course, so to speak, was fully satisfying, and relieved almost all my tensions, and the dessert was a wonderful strawberry shortcake with a dollop of whipped cream atop. You may substitute your own favorite; it will be as satisfying to you.
The cover by Ivan Waldock is great and helps tie the series together.
I read Puppet Master on my Kindle, where it was easy to read. Like Poker Face, there are British phrasings and word choices, hardly surprising given Ms Sturman's British heritage, but none of them were more than a small bump in the road, so to speak. There are some grammar issues, mostly missing commas, that may cause someone like me to notice them, but should not interfere with enjoying the story. I opened it using Kindle for Mac; it was fine there as well.
I recommend Puppet Master to any reader looking for an intriguing thriller. If you're looking at this after having read Poker Face, what are you waiting for? If you haven't read Poker Face, this story will still work, but references may not make as much sense, and the relationships will be murky, I think.
Five Stars
Of course, you don't need to take my word for it, read these yourself and come to your own opinion. But I hope these comments intrigue you enough to look at these and perhaps purchase them your self... or something else by these authors.
The links are for the Kindle editions; if you are not a Kindle person, have no fear, just drop a note in the comments section and I'll find an alternate option for you. Any other comments are welcome as well.

Interview with Becka Sutton!
Becka Sutton is the author and publisher of two web-serials, The Dragon Wars Saga and The Haventon Chronicles, and she's also converting Dragon Wars to ebook format. The first of these, Land of Myth, is now available in several convenient formats. I've been reading Dragon Wars since early in its on-line life, and find it thoroughly enjoyable. Since Land of Myth went live last month, Becka's on a tour to raise awareness and I'm very happy to provide a stop for her, in the form of an interview with questions that range from the sublime to the... not so
sublime.
The format of this interview:
First, I have some writing and author related questions.
The center section deals with more project specific topics. Since Becka publishes two web-serials, I asked some related questions.
Lastly, a selection of random questions, so we can get to know her a little better.
The center section deals with more project specific topics. Since Becka publishes two web-serials, I asked some related questions.
Lastly, a selection of random questions, so we can get to know her a little better.
me: Why did you get into writing/become a writer?
Becka:
When I was eight we used to do little creative writing projects
in English. On parents' night my teacher told my mother
that I had a talent for the English language that verged on the
astounding for my age. I asked what would be astounding and was told
writing a novel at that age. So I set to work writing a
novel. I seem to remember it was some Mary-Sueish thing about a girl
who had to go on a quest to win the hand of a fairy prince which would end a
curse that had been placed on her homeland after they burnt someone
as a witch generations ago. As the chapters were only a paragraph long, it was really just a short story, and the plot was totally
incoherent. I misplaced it when we moved a while later. But I kind of
caught the bug then and haven't stopped writing since.
As a teen, I wrote my first proper novel length story in a stack of
exercise books my mother bought me for the purpose. It was a tad less
incoherent but still awful. I burned it ages ago. The second one as
well.
me: Why did you decide to go into Indie Publishing?
Becka:
That's a difficult question. I think it was the realization that
most writers, whether Indie or Traditionally Published, didn't make a living at
it, so in the end this was mostly about fun that might, with hard work
and a following wind, bring in a little dough. Keeping control of my
work seemed like more fun than hawking it around and having all the
creative decisions taken away from me if I managed to sell it to a
publisher.
me: Can you give a synopsis of your current WIP (Work In Progress)?
Becka:
Which
one? Apart from The Dragon Wars Saga and The Haventon Chronicles, I'm
currently working on the outline for a traditional fantasy about an
asexual female navigator in an island culture – I think that might
be this year's NaNoWriMo Project - and a set of Science Fiction flash
fiction pieces about the first contact between humans and an alien
species from a planet where the thalassogen is sulphuric acid and who
want to buy Venus.
Note:
For readers like me: "Isaac Asimov has coined the term 'thalassogen,'
by which he refers to any substance capable of forming a planetary
ocean."
"Isaac
Asimov; 'The Thalassogens'; Magazine of Fantasy and Science
Fiction 39 (December, 1970):94-104."
Quoted from Robert A. Freitas Jr.,in Xenology:
An Introduction to the Scientific Study of Extraterrestrial Life,
Intelligence, and Civilization,
First Edition, Xenology Research Institute, Sacramento, CA, 1979;
http://www.xenology.info/Xeno.htm
me: What is your biggest inspiration as a writer?
Becka:
I
find inspiration everywhere. I'll come across a fact somewhere –
documentaries, books, Wikipedia, random conversation – and my brain
runs away with it. Music is another big one. I'm not a writer who has
soundtracks for my stuff but having the radio playing when I'm
writing or outlining helps me focus.
me: What is your writing process? (ie: outline, notecards, etc)
Becka:
I
tend to worldbuild like crazy. My head is full of worlds. Then I
notecard my outline. Then I lose the notecards and write by the seat
of my pants, XD.
More seriously, I worldbuild a lot and I sometimes
notecard but I usually have an outline in my head even when I don't
have it on paper.
me: What was your
motivation in publishing web serials?
Becka:
It
sounds weird but I sort of fell into the web fiction scene on Twitter
and next thing I know I'm thinking that seems like a fun idea and
trawling through my WIPs to see what I want to post.
me: What advice
would you give a writer thinking of beginning a web serial?
Becka:
Have
a buffer and a regular posting schedule. Be prepared for a hard slog
to build up your number of readers.
me: I think Dragon
Wars is a success, but that’s from the reader’s perspective. What
would you do differently, if you had the chance?
Becka:
Success
is always relative. I'm not Amanda Hocking (though I can dream) but I
have awesome fans like you who were willing to fork up the dough to
make the book happen. That's a big success in my book.
What
would I do differently? I'd probably look into the promotion side
more. Making the world aware of web serials and books is not easy.
Then again I'm still not sure what I'm doing on the marketing side of
things – so if I had done that I'd probably still be waiting.
me: What’s your
feeling about an author producing multiple web serials?
Becka:
Well
speaking as an author currently publishing two at the same time I
don't have a problem with that. It is a lot more work than just doing
one. On the plus side, updates draw people.
me: Why did you
decide to publish Dragon Wars in the more traditional format of ebook
and paperback? Any advice to offer from that experience?
Becka:
A
lot of people don't like reading huge chunks of text on a website so
I suspect that some people are put off by the huge archive they'd
have to read through. It's also easier to read an ebook or paperback
anywhere once you have it. Websites require not just a computer but
an internet connection to browse the page. On top of that I wanted to
give my fans the chance to own a copy of the story they've supported
so long. Plus there's just something immensely satisfying about
holding your own book in your hands.
Advice?
Work out how you're going to fund it. Self-publishing is more
affordable now than it has been historically but it's still not free
to do it properly. Every penny you spend is one you have to make
back. I was fortunate in that while my IndieGoGo campaign didn't
reach target it did make enough to cover everything so the first book
has broken even before going on sale. Not losing money equals a big
success. :-)
And some fun questions to
see what Ms Sutton likes:
me: What three toppings would you mix into/put on top of your ice cream?
me: What three toppings would you mix into/put on top of your ice cream?
Becka:
I
tend to eat my ice cream plain. Also usually chocolate ice cream
rather than anything else.
me: What is the coolest animal in the world?
Becka:
The wolf or possibly the cheetah.
me: Who do you think would take the fight - Captain Kirk, Captain Jack Sparrow, or Captain Crunch?
Becka:
Undoubtedly
Captain Jack Sparrow – he's such a trickster archetype.
me: What is your favorite type of food? (IE: Mexican, Chinese, Thai, Italian)
Becka:
A
toss up between Chinese and Italian. I'm also rather fond of curry.
me: What is one thing on your bucket list? (Bucket list = things to do before you kick the bucket.)
Becka:
I'd
love to visit Japan.
me: Any closing statements? :)
Becka:
Thanks
for hosting me. :-)
Art for Land of Myth
Becka also shared her bio:
Becka
Sutton is a self-described crazy cat lady, but she’s not very good
at it: while she is crazy she only has one cat. She was born in
Britain in 1972 and has lived there her entire life. In her early
teens she started scrawling fantasy stories in exercise books her
mother bought her to stop her scribbling in her school books. She
hasn’t stopped writing since, and she credits writing as the outlet
that allowed her to recover from the nervous breakdown she had after
her parents died.
Her other interests include reading, listening to music, attempting to draw, growing her own vegetables and looking after the aforementioned Pumpkin cat.
No, you can’t read the novel she scrawled as a teen – she burned it long ago because it was awful.

So, thanks Becka, for helping to fill the blogging void this Friday with humor and advice. I appreciate the responses and the information. Along with following The Dragon Wars Saga, I'll be looking for more on your flash fiction series, and your navigatrix sounds fascinating as well.
