Hi readers, if there's any of you left. The last post I did on this blog was April. That was the longest run on any resolution I've ever made. I will not be making the same resolution again.
No, instead I've vowed to make a ritual out of writing. That means I will write because it is what I love to do and it is something I need to prove to myself. The characters of this trilogy have been poking at me lately and I realized just how much I missed them. There's so much of this story that I want to write and expose to everyone who loves a good story, yet I've failed at revealing that. I need to get back to my roots of wanting to make an audience feel the tug of a good adventure.
So, I will post here from time to time. Not regularly. Not on a schedule, but out of ritual as I take on the creativity that I refuse to let wither. Like anything else, I suppose creativity takes some cultivating and I've done a very poor job of that as of late.
Julian de Arques III will take the adventure of a lifetime if it kills me... or him. Check back if you wish and please feel free to annoy me at sailthecartographer@gmail.com if you aren't sure where I've gone. Or even if you just have other questions or encouragements. I'm looking for support. Please bring some.

well glad to see you're back at posting here!
ReplyDeletecan i make something of a suggestion... it's wonderful to see the world get built together with your descriptions on a character to character basis.. but to quote something one of my favorite authors once said "dont tell the reader.. show them"
by that i mean.. you're an amazing writer, and maybe it'll be funner for you to actually write short bits about characters in terms of a story rather than block form bios..
either way hope to read more soon!
That's a good idea. I might write some shorts for things, but it gets difficult because there's very little I can write into a short that won't give away a lot. So, it's all dependent on what I write.
