I’ve got two weeks off work. I’m not going anywhere nice, this was one of those ‘use your holiday time or lose it’ moments, but I have every intention of getting the best out on my time.
Less than a month to go until NaNoWriMo and I’m getting that familiar itch. (no, not THAT familiar itch…)
So, despite my lack of sleep I had a relatively good day of writing today. It was Towers Over The Clyde, the sequel to Living On Reputation.
It was good to get back into it (it always is) and a rough first chapter has finally been finished!
I have some really crazy ideas for the rest of the story, I’m really letting my imagination run riot with this one.

I had a deadline for Duality 2, a book produced locally, that was today. The story I was working on didn’t quite work and while I had a good beginning and ending, the middle just didn’t work out. So no submissions for Duality 2 for this boy. I’ll wait until Duality 3 and see if I have anything in mind that would work.
Now that’s out of the way I’ve been thinking of working on something a bit longer. Recently my story lengths have been getting shorter and shorter and after a comment by mrBen I thought that something with a bit more story to tell was on the cards.
So now I’m working on a sequel of sorts to Living on Reputation, something that was submitted recently for Mythaxis. And, hopefully, it should be a bit more weighty than I’ve been producing. It has the working title of Towers Over The Clyde.
To give you a hint, think of Glasgow cop-show Taggart but with wizards and a hint of H.P. Lovecraft. Lovely.
