Go ahead. I’ll wait.
*pauses as calendars are flipped
back, a whole summer wiped away and fresh slates are dealt in baseball*
Way back then, if you’ll recall, I was busy working on a storyline for
a short story I simply called “Sicily.”
It was to be submitted to Dreamspinner and Harlequin’s Carina Press.
Well, the Six Brothers project (Revolutionary War era mainstream romance which
I will begin writing October 16, to the hearty applause of my literary agent, I
might add. *grins*) happened and
“Sicily” was relegated to the far back burner.
Well, now that my writing career is about to turn solely mainstream
(i.e. the traditional f/m romance), all the work I had done on “Sicily” I feared
was lost.
Wrong.
Yesterday, as I continued the final push on Quiver (only 7k to go, by
the way), I found myself raiding “Sicily” and absconding rather giddily with its
main plot point!
Sheepishly I admit, it was a tee-tiny bit glorious.
As all writers have experienced, so often when half-baked projects are
forced to be left behind all that work is abandoned and sadly lost.
Not this time.
*smiles, still giddy*
Yes, it was a bit glorious, indeed.
Until tomorrow…
