No seriously...Okay, so I've been terrible about keeping up with blogs. (I have still been writing just much slower than usual.) I didn't just fall off the edge of the planet, though it does feel like that at times.<br />
<br />
So, here's my excuse.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig1slwgE3o5XnFvyxwyPqGb1_1pCNvic9yVuPdQvtCzz19PXOTW9ewVT00Fjbhy1vAFPBe0MZg5j6b0wZqkirIKnsqs3B7C6OYKagXZ4yuEfu0PlTWJtORDsugtpGh0XkDevvDHJ89_V6J/s1600/DSCN0770.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig1slwgE3o5XnFvyxwyPqGb1_1pCNvic9yVuPdQvtCzz19PXOTW9ewVT00Fjbhy1vAFPBe0MZg5j6b0wZqkirIKnsqs3B7C6OYKagXZ4yuEfu0PlTWJtORDsugtpGh0XkDevvDHJ89_V6J/s320/DSCN0770.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
2 1/2 years ago I had 3 kids. All at once I added 3 more and I won't lie, it threw me for a loop. Going from 3 to 6 was a lot more work than I'd expected, and as a result a lot of my updates got forgotten. Since then I've also added one more little pumpkin.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd3nAyIR9H0La1FLbd2eF3ejyd0ml-oO28AvSmUDFdgtLwiNKzhGO5wv79nm1j367aRX0qPTP6oiYZj3sYFL5iNEZS7dwE0mx_YE9tVh5A0zilED_uhUbjMuSydoDZKbwBLjn5FktUhwxR/s1600/DSCN0739.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd3nAyIR9H0La1FLbd2eF3ejyd0ml-oO28AvSmUDFdgtLwiNKzhGO5wv79nm1j367aRX0qPTP6oiYZj3sYFL5iNEZS7dwE0mx_YE9tVh5A0zilED_uhUbjMuSydoDZKbwBLjn5FktUhwxR/s320/DSCN0739.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
So that's my excuse.<br />
<br />
Over that time though I have published another book. It's the second book in the Daemarkin series. So if you loved the first one and haven't seen the second, head on over and grab it.<br />

<span abp="365" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Branches cracked. Brush rustled. One by one, the wolf-like
maviel squeezed through the dense oaks, their backs scraping tree limbs eight
feet off the ground. One of these days Zade wouldn’t be able to hold them back.
What would happen to the villagers then?<o:p abp="366"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="368" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He gripped the leather-bound hilt of his blade, his gaze
darting between each pair of glowing red eyes piercing through the night as the
maviel surrounded him.<o:p abp="369"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="374" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Only seven? His breath hitched, every muscle tightening.
When the maviel took wolf form, they normally traveled in packs of ten. Where
were the others?<o:p abp="375"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="376" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="377" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He stretched out his senses, searching for
their life signatures in the surrounding trees. A faint signature shifted
behind him.<o:p abp="378"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="379" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="380" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Zade jumped for the branches ten feet above
him. Claws bit into his calf and raked along his leg, stinging as the maviel
yanked him down. The creature’s breath lifted the hair on the back of his neck.
As he spun to face the beast, the leather binding of his knife dug into his
palm.<o:p abp="381"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="388" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Teeth closed next to his ear. His blade sliced
through the wolf’s throat as easily as cloth. Hot blood sprayed over his hands,
the sharp metallic tang mixing with pine and earth. He landed on one foot, not
trusting his injured leg. The creature crumpled at his feet.<i abp="389" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><o:p abp="390"></o:p></i></span></div>

<span abp="397" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He shoved the blade into its sheath and scooped
a half dozen shuriken from the pouch strapped to his waist, ignoring the ache
spreading through his leg. He balanced the sharp, star-shaped blades between
his fingers as shadows took form beneath the branches. Red eyes shone like
specks of hate through the darkness.<o:p abp="398"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="400" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Seven enormous wolves crouched, hackles raised
and teeth bared.<o:p abp="401"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="406" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Hindquarters bunched and the wolves sprang,
little more than blurs of motion.<span abp="407" style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p abp="408"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="410" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Shuriken flew from Zade’s fingers and embedded
deep in the wolves’ chests with a thud. Three crashed to the ground, spraying
dirt into the air. The others skidded to a halt and regrouped only feet away.<o:p abp="411"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">

<span abp="413" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The thick, heavy air constricted around him.
Zade reached into his satchel for more weapons, every muscle tensed. Now that
their numbers were depleted, would they dare continue the attack?<o:p abp="414"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="415" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="416" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">One wolf gave a low, guttural snarl and fled.
The others thundered after it, cracking and swaying branches as they
disappeared among the oaks.<o:p abp="417"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="418" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="419" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The soft murmur of crickets resumed their
chorus, cutting through the tension like a knife. Zade’s clenched fist loosened
around his last remaining shuriken, and he pulled his hand from his satchel as
the creatures’ howls moved ever farther away. Pain lanced through his calf as
he limped forward. His breath hitched.<i abp="420" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><o:p abp="421"></o:p></i></span></div>

<div abp="427" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="428" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He bent over a dead wolf. Moonlight glistened
off the bloody shuriken as Zade pulled it from the still-warm body, coarse
hairs brushing his skin. He wiped the weapon against his rough woven pants,
leaving a crimson streak along his thigh.<o:p abp="429"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="430" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="431" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Liquid trickled down his flesh, tickling his
ankle, but he couldn’t check. Not yet.<span abp="432" style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p abp="433"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="434" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="435" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He stretched out his mind, searching the area
for any more maviel. Four of the wolf-like creatures stalked through the forest
nearly a mile away, their flight halted. The missing two joined them at the
ridge. <o:p abp="436"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="437" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="438" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Zade straightened, slid the shuriken into the
bag at his waist, and checked for bandages. Hard metal weapons, a round wooden
flute, and his last small loaf of bread . . .<o:p abp="439"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="440" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="441" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A groan escaped. He forgot to replace his
bandages before rushing from the house to stop the maviel.<o:p abp="442"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="443" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="444" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He removed his dagger and sheared off a strip
of cloth from the bottom of his shirt. The black fabric stuck to his leg as he
wrapped it around the wound, covering the worst of the damage. He limped up the
mountain, focusing on the bough of an evergreen, the sharp incline of rock,
stars peeking through the leaves of an oak—anything to keep his mind off the
wound.<span abp="445" style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p abp="446"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="447" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="448" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Blood seeped through the makeshift bandage and
slid down the back of his heel. Each step along the worn pathway announced his
injuries to the maviel. If they were smart, they’d press their advantage. Race
back down the mountain and tear him apart before he had the chance to escape.<o:p abp="449"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="450" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="451" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">His leg buckled. The world twisted, a blur of
dark green and shadows swirling around him. He grabbed a branch and hopped on
one leg until the pain eased. <i abp="452" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Breathe.
Home isn’t far now.<o:p abp="453"></o:p></i></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="454" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="455" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He placed his weight on his injured leg and
straightened to his full height. A short climb through the trees and he’d be at
the top. Just a few more agonizing steps and he could get his bandages. Maybe
the maviel would even decide they’d had enough for a few days. He hobbled
toward the rocky cliff and climbed onto the lowest branches of an oak. <o:p abp="456"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="457" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="458" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The roar of a waterfall echoed through the
trees and ricocheted off the rocks. Branches shivered beneath his feet as he
leapt between them. Leaves grazed the exposed gashes on his leg, bringing tears
to Zade’s eyes. He slowed, careful to avoid the devil-speared foliage as the
muscles in his leg screamed in protest.<o:p abp="459"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="460" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="461" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The edge of the cliff—safety—stared at him from
ten feet away. Just one little jump and they wouldn’t dare come after
him—unless they’d figured out he was alone. <o:p abp="462"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="463" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="464" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">No. He couldn’t think like that. He’d just have
to trust that they still feared this place, still thought there were more
Amodinajai to protect the valley than just him.<o:p abp="465"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="466" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="467" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He blew out a breath, bracing himself as he
eyed the gap to the edge of the cliff and the clearing beyond. One little jump
with his leg half-shredded. He could do this. <o:p abp="468"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="469" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="470" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He inhaled, coiled, and launched across the
gap. Rocks ground into the bottom of his feet. A sharp stab shot up his leg.
Biting back a scream of pain, he threw out his arms and held up his injured
leg. The burn through his calf slowly faded. He breathed, focusing on the
mountain clearing he called home as he willed the pain to dull.<o:p abp="471"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="472" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="473" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A stream meandered around the outer perimeter
of the clearing and fell from the edge of the cliff. Mist rose from the
waterfall, thinning out along the stones and over the ground like a thick white
blanket, giving an ethereal quality to the area. Once the sun rose, the mist
would burn off, but for now there was something about this place, something
that seemed like . . . home. <o:p abp="474"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="475" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="476" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Faint memories surfaced—a woman with lavender
hair smiling at him as she hummed some tune, a baby crawling around, purple
fuzz on his head. He shook it off. No memories tonight—especially ones that
weren’t even his. He couldn’t afford any more problems, and losing control of
his other side was definitely a problem. At least when he was in the clearing,
it was easier to control himself. Perhaps that was why the Amodinajai chose
this spot as their home—that and the stone outcropping which gave a view of the
entire valley.<o:p abp="477"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="478" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="479" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He hobbled toward the hollowed out boulder he
used as a shelter. Tight muscles along his neck eased as he pushed open a rough
wooden door fixed in the stone.<o:p abp="480"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="481" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="482" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Threadbare blankets spread over top of a fleece
mattress squished against the wall. A line of shelves filled with half-empty
boxes woven from reeds stood across from it, only two feet of space between
them. He yanked a box from the end. Two rolls of tan cloth rolled along the
bottom. He sighed and pulled them out, fingering the threadbare fabric and
frayed edges. These weren’t going to last much longer.<o:p abp="483"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="484" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="485" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">His lips tightened, knuckles white.<o:p abp="486"></o:p></span></div>

</div>
<div abp="487" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="488" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Hopefully this year’s tribute would be more
than a few worn blankets and poisoned food.<o:p abp="489"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="490" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="491" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He shoved the box back on the shelf. Moonlight
spilled through the open doorway. Sinking to the edge of the bed, he pulled off
the drenched strip of cloth he’d used as a bandage. Dirt clung to his flesh,
filling the gouges in his skin. As if getting wounded weren’t bad enough. He
should have paid more attention, remembered to keep his focus on the beasts
closest to him. But the last few days they’d changed tactics, hounding him to
exhaustion as they tried to get past him and down to the village. He dropped
his pants, and fabric peeled away from his flesh. A cry of pain lodged in the
back of his throat. He peered at the gashes, blood staining the skin around
them.<o:p abp="492"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="493" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="494" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">This wasn’t so bad. He’d been through worse.<o:p abp="495"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">

<div abp="496" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="497" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He grabbed a worn set of doeskin pants—his last
pair—and limped out the door.<o:p abp="498"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="499" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="500" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The stream wound around the clearing like a
snake. Life pulsed through the forest. Rabbits huddled in their burrows, and
birds lay in their nests, hiding from the dark creatures that roamed the night.
Hiding from him. Everything within miles remained safely holed away—except the
maviel prowling the upper regions of the forest.<o:p abp="501"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">

<span abp="503" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">This battle couldn’t continue forever. One of these days
some tactic they tried would succeed, and he’d end up as dead as the rest of
the Amodinajai. He’d been injured more times than he could remember. What would
happen if he just . . . stopped fighting?<o:p abp="504"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="511" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He sought out the cluster of log houses in the
valley below, nothing more than shadows in the darkness, a few glimmering
lights peeking out like beacons. Seven hundred people counted on him to protect
them. Seven hundred people who didn’t even acknowledge his existence. Seven
hundred people he could never risk meeting.<o:p abp="512"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="514" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">But it would be so nice to just be able to talk

<span abp="517" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He scowled. What was wrong with him tonight? He wasn’t
usually this sentimental. <o:p abp="518"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="520" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He dropped down next to the stream. Icy water stung his
flesh as he slid his leg into the stream’s cold clutch. Blood and dirt swirled
away, joining the cascade that spilled over the edge of the cliff to the valley
below. Four furrows ran down his calf, the flesh pulling apart as if the
muscles were trying to escape. He lifted his half-numb leg out, picked thick
moss off the rocks, and pressed it to the ragged flesh. At the very least it
would stop the bleeding and dull the pain. Hopefully, it would heal quickly. He
couldn’t afford to hobble around the mountain with an injury like this. There
was too much to do—too many creatures to keep at bay. It would be nice to have
some real medicine, something to stitch it up with, but that was a distant
memory from a time before the villagers tried to kill off the “demon in the
woods.” He snorted. They didn’t even know what a demon was.<span abp="521" style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p abp="522"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="524" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A new energy flickered at the edges of his senses. Zade

<span abp="527" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Four humans made their way through the forest up the
mountainside. His gaze darted to the edge of the clearing, sensing out the
maviel. Too close. <i abp="528" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Of all times . . . </i>

<span abp="531" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Zade bound his leg tightly and yanked his pants on,
ignoring the pain. He strapped his satchel around his waist, ran to the cliff,
and catapulted off the side. Rough bark scraped his feet as he landed, toes
digging into the branch. Pain rippled through his calf. This night was going to
be torture, but he wouldn’t let them die. He couldn’t. He leapt to the next
bough. Wind whistled through his hair and chilled his flesh.<o:p abp="532"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="534" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The maviel drew closer, racing for the easy feast climbing
toward them. He had to get there first.<o:p abp="535"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="537" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Branches whipped past, leaves tearing away as
if they’d been caught in a whirlwind. He landed in a tree above the first two
humans of the group and twisted toward the maviel, shuriken in hand. Each
breath rushed out, harsh in the darkness. The maviel slowed, sensing Zade as
easily as he did them. They halted just out of sight.<o:p abp="538"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="540" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A girl stopped below him, auburn hair tied in a

<span abp="543" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A soft breeze whispered through the leaves and
brushed along the boy’s short hair, nearly white in the moonlight. Head
swiveling back and forth, he clutched a knife like a life-line. “It’s just the
wind.”<o:p abp="544"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="560" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="561" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The twins were back again. Zade glared at them.
This game of theirs was going to get someone killed. Maybe he should just let <i abp="562" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">them</i> protect the village and see how
long <i abp="563" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">they</i> lasted against those

<span abp="566" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He dropped to the ground behind the two boys.
One of them stopped. His head turned, and Zade slid around a tree, blending
with the darkness as if it were a second skin.<o:p abp="567"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="568" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="569" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Green eyes brushed past his and moved on. The
boy tapped his twin on the shoulder and inched closer to him. “Maybe we should
call this off. Something’s not right.”<o:p abp="570"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="571" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="572" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The other boy scowled. “And miss the chance to
see Ehlrin squirm? No way.” He continued forward, his footsteps barely stirring
the dead leaves matted on the forest floor.<o:p abp="573"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="574" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="575" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Zade had to get these kids out of here before
they got killed. The twins wouldn’t frighten easily, they’d been up here too
often, but the others might. Zade crouched and picked several thumb-sized
stones from the ground. He climbed into the branches and made his way to Ehlrin
and the girl. <o:p abp="576"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="577" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="578" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Hidden among the branches, Zade tossed a rock
at the side of the girl’s foot. Dirt spattered over her shoe. She spun,
pressing her back to Ehlrin’s, and clutched her knife in front of her.<o:p abp="579"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="580" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">

<span abp="584" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He lobbed a pebble at a tree next to them. <i abp="585" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Thud!</i> The oak creaked and swayed.<o:p abp="586"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="588" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“You know those stories about Demons’ Point?”
Ehlrin’s voice trembled. <o:p abp="589"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="590" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="591" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Good. Maybe he was starting to get the picture.<o:p abp="592"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="593" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="594" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“Yes.” The girl’s voice quavered.<o:p abp="595"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="596" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="597" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“I’m beginning to think they’re true.”<o:p abp="598"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="599" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="600" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“Ready to go home?” A spark of hope filled her
voice.<o:p abp="601"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="602" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">

</div>
<div abp="605" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="606" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Her lips tightened, and she widened her stance,
flexing the fingers around her blade. “How long until dawn?”<o:p abp="607"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="608" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="609" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“An hour, maybe two. It can’t be more than
another mile to Demons’ Point.” Ehlrin inched forward, his fingers curled
around his short knife. As if that would save him from the maviel. With his
strength, it probably wouldn’t even get through their fur.<o:p abp="610"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="611" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="612" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Silent as death, Zade slid through the branches
above them and dropped to the ground out of sight. He didn’t have time for
this.<o:p abp="613"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="614" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="615" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He reached into his pack, fingering his flute.
The fear it once created had waned among the wolves with each unanswered call. <o:p abp="616"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="617" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="618" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The maviel were going to figure out eventually
that there was no one left to provide backup—no one he could call for help. He
was alone, the last defender.<o:p abp="619"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="620" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="621" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He shook his head and shoved the whistle deeper
into his bag. The flute was a last resort.<o:p abp="622"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="623" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="624" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He crouched and grabbed a large, old pinecone,
each woody scale the size of a thumbnail. <i abp="625" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">If
a swaying tree doesn’t make them go home, maybe a fireball will. </i>He tugged
the knife from the leather tie around his neck and cut symbols into the scales
of the pinecone.<o:p abp="626"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">

<div abp="627" class="MsoNormal" style="-ms-text-autospace: ideograph-numeric; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="628" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The crunch of brush grew louder. Someone should teach these
kids not to make so much noise, but then if they were more than just beginners
they wouldn’t be up here at all. <o:p abp="629"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">

<span abp="631" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">He cut the marks into a second pinecone and checked on the
maviel. They roamed just outside of easy reach. With his leg injured, he
couldn’t hope to chase them away. <o:p abp="632"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="633" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="634" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Ehlrin and the girl stepped from between two
trees.<o:p abp="635"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="636" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="637" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Softer than the breeze, Zade whispered,
“Blazen.” Fire crackled to life over the wood, caressing his hands like an old
friend. With a pinecone in each palm, he rose up and threw them. A blazing ball
streaked through the air, inches in front of Ehlrin and the girl, and crashed
into a tree. Sparks showered them.<o:p abp="638"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">

<span abp="640" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“Ah!” The girl threw up her arms and jumped back.<o:p abp="641"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="642" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="643" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The second ball of fire smashed into the ground
at their feet. Flames leapt up to scorch their shoes like beasts going in for
the kill.<o:p abp="644"></o:p></span></div>
<div abp="130">
</div>
<div abp="645" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="646" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">They bolted through the trees in opposite

<span abp="649" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Zade leaned against a trunk with a sigh. Why
did they have to run <i abp="650" style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">up </i>the mountain?<span abp="651" style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p abp="652"></o:p></span></div>

<span abp="654" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The crackle of flames died out, leaving nothing
but a dark singe on the trunk. Zade stretched out his senses and found their
energy signatures once more. The twins raced after Ehlrin, leaving the girl
alone—and she was heading straight for the wolves.<o:p abp="655"></o:p></span></div>

<div abp="656" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span abp="657" style="font-family: "Garamond","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The first light of predawn painted the sky in
deep grays. Another hour before the sun broke over the ridge and forced the

Crystal Collier is an author who pens fantasy, historical, and romance stories with the occasional touch of humor, horror, or inspiration. She can be found practicing her brother-induced ninja skills while teaching children or madly typing about fantastic and impossible creatures. She has lived from coast to coast and now calls Florida home with her creative husband, four littles, and “friend” (a.k.a. the zombie locked in her closet). Secretly, she dreams of world domination and a bottomless supply of cheese. You can find her on her blog<b abp="157"> </b><a abp="158" href="http://crystalcollier.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span abp="159" style="color: #1155cc;">HERE</span></a>.<b abp="160"> <u abp="161"></u><u abp="162"></u></b></div>

Hobby: When Rachel asked for my favorite things, I immediately started singing that song from The Sound of Music, which is not my favorite--although I did play the lead in the musical once and can sing any song from the show on demand.

stretch of hot cheese. The way words paint pictures inside my head. The muffled
sound of snow. When I notice my breathing and find comfort in it. Songs that
make me cry the first time I hear them, the lyrics and the music mingling
together to dance along my spine. When my hair behaves itself and others
notice. The shifting color of </span>my eyes. The sound of the
ocean. When laughter forces its way out of my lungs and refuses to listen to my
feeble attempts to control it. And a really good soup recipe.<br abp="881" />

<span abp="879" style="font-family: Calibri;"><span abp="883">Answer: My older brother is dyslexic. He
decided early on that the best way to overcome his challenge was to read as
much as possible. He then shoved his favorite books into my hands, even if I
was way too young for some of </span>them. I read Ender’s Game when
I was eight. It shattered me, and every sharp piece of me craved stories from
then on, needed them. I didn’t actually consider writing as a career until
college, but I think I’ve been writing stories in one way or another ever since
that little boy discovered how powerful a few words on a page can be.<br abp="884" />

<span abp="299" id="freeText8212148070320534406">When Lyn sets off on her supposedly uncomplicated and unromantic cruise, she never dreams it will include pirates. All the 25-year-old Colorado high school teacher wants is to forget that her dead fiancé was a cheating scumbag. What she plans is a vacation diversion; what fate provides is Braedon, an intriguing surgeon. She finds herself drawn to him: his gentle humor, his love of music, and even his willingness to let her take him down during morning karate practices. Against the backdrop of the ship’s make-believe world and its temporary friendships, her emotions come alive. <br abp="300" /><br abp="301" />However, fear is an emotion, too. Unaware of the sensitive waters he navigates, Braedon moves to take their relationship beyond friendship--on the very anniversary Lyn came on the cruise to forget. But Lyn's painful memories are too powerful, and she runs off in a panic. <br abp="302" /><br abp="303" />Things are bad enough when the pair finds themselves on one of the cruise’s snorkeling excursions in American Samoa. However, paradise turns to piracy when their party is kidnapped. Lyn’s fear of a fairytale turns grim. Now she must fight alongside the man she rejected, first for their freedom and then against storms, sharks, and shipwreck.</span></div>

In the English society of 1768 where women are bred to marry, unattractive Alexia, just sixteen, believes she will end up alone. But on the county doorstep of a neighbor’s estate, she meets a man straight out of her nightmares, one whose blue eyes threaten to consume her whole world—especially later when she discovers him standing over her murdered host in the middle of the night. </div>

Among the many things to change for her that evening are: her physical appearance—from ghastly to breathtaking, an epidemic of night terrors predicting the future, and the blue-eyed man’s unexpected infusion into her life. Not only do his appearances precede tragedies, but they’re echoed by the arrival of ravenous, black-robed wraiths on moonless nights. </div>

Unable to decide whether he is one of these monsters or protecting her from them, she uncovers what her father has been concealing: truths about her own identity, about the blue-eyed man, and about love. After an attack close to home, Alexia realizes she cannot keep one foot in her old life and one in this new world. To protect her family she must either be sold into a loveless marriage, or escape with the man of her dreams and risk becoming one of the Soulless. </div>

<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
So, after being gone FOREVER, I've decided to come back with some Awesome News!!! My book is being published!!! You know, the one I've been working on forever. The one I started this blog so I could submit it for critiques, the one I've spent years developing. </div>
<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
That's right. </div>
<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
Daemarkin: Demon's Vow will be released on January 15th! It's available for Amazon Kindle pre-order now, but if you want a paperback it will be available January 15th. I've posted a link on the side, but here's another, just in case. <a abp="321" href="http://www.amazon.com/Daemarkin-Demons-Vow-R-W-Hert-ebook/dp/B0187Z7JPI/" target="_blank">Daemarkin: Demon's Vow</a>.</div>
<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
And a little blurb just to let you know what it's about.</div>
<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div abp="128" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For as long as sixteen-year-old Zade can remember he’s dealt with the thing locked inside, another soul that can use his body . . . if he lets it. <br /><br />As long as he stays away from the nearby villagers, he can control the soul’s strange powers—and its hunger—powers he needs to keep the encroaching creatures of the nether realm from finding the demon gate and destroying the valley where he lives. <br /><br />But when Zade saves a village girl from monstrous wolves, he loses the one tool that aids his control: the villagers’ fear of him. <br /><br />Now they won't leave him alone and his darker side is getting stronger—a side hungry for blood, and it doesn’t care if that blood is demonic or human.</span></div>

<br />
Within a month of requesting my manuscript one agent had a family tragedy and stopped being an agent. Another ran into work trouble and got buried in issues that ended up causing her to have to back off from submissions for a while (including fulls she'd requested). <br />
After the third one had a problem I decided maybe I should look into indie. The more I learned about it, the greater I liked the idea, and so, thinking this was the way for me, I jumped in. I went editor shopping, combing through a dozen or more to find one that would fit with me. <br />
And I did!<br />
She was awesome, great work, great price, and fast turnarounds, and willing to do multiple rounds to make my book the best we could. I was thrilled. <br />
And then the curse struck once again.<br />
A week before she was supposed to have my MS back to me she emailed me to say she'd been in the hospital and hadn't been able to get as much done as she needed to. She wasn't going to meet the deadline.<br />
I simply told her to get better and keep me updated when she would have it done. A week went by, and then two. <br />
Still nothing. <br />
And finally an answer--though not the one I wanted.<br />
<br />
She had died.<br />
<br />
Yep. Definitely cursed.<br />
<br />
At first I was shocked and horrified. I kept thinking how much pain her family must be going through and wishing them the best. <br />
And then the anger hit. She'd never finished my manuscript. Now I had to start all over. Again! I'd have to find another editor, get them to take me on, figure out if we worked well together. It was like living in a nightmare where what you want is constantly out of reach.<br />
<br />
I had to run some errands and so I went, alone (a rarity with 3 kids whom I homeschool), and the anger just kept building.<br />
<br />
This book will make it out there. Cursed or not, I will not just let it sit on a shelf gathering dust. <br />
I will miss my editor, but it will not stop me. <br />
<br />
So editors beware. I hope your luck is good, because I'm going to strike again.<br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We’ve all heard the advice—once you get done with the first
book write another one. It’s great advice. After all once you’ve finished a
story, gotten through the editing, and sold it there will be people who will
want to see more from you. Agents look for authors who have more than one story
in them. Give enough stories or a good enough story and people remember your
name and will pick up your next book based on your name alone. So even before
selling your first novel writing another one is a fantastic idea.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">But what happens when you just can’t think of another one?
What if things aren’t sparking in your brain and you don’t know where to turn
to get that next killer idea? </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">People say there are ideas all around. At the grocery store.
In the way a spouse or child says something. Books. Movies. But how are you
supposed to take those ideas and turn them into something you can actually use?</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Sure we’re writers, we’re creative, we let things percolate,
but sometimes those fleeting ideas just aren’t good enough for a real story.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">At least, they aren’t the way they are now. But what if you
added to them? Transformed them into something that stunning?</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Let’s take an idea of someone walking into a grocery store,
grabbing an armful of candy bars and cutting in line to get out. Is this a
story?</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Yes, though not a very interesting one at the moment. Other
than it making you frustrated and perhaps even angry with them, no one cares
that person cut in line or why they’re buying candy bars.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">But let’s take that person and put them outside the store
and then let’s jump in their head. They drive up, running late for a meeting
with children. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Still not that interesting. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">But what if those children were refugees? Possibly from
another planet? What if this was the first time they’d ever been on Earth and
this person had to keep them quiet and happy so the rest of the world didn’t
find out about them?</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">That moment in the store may never get put into a book, but
it can certainly spark the idea for one. All you have to do is start asking
hypothetical questions. Answer them. Think about them. When you get an answer
ask more questions. The story will start to take shape, whether it’s Sci-fi,
Fantasy, Contemporary, Romance, etc. Every person will come up with different
answers to the questions and form a different story. Just don’t let yourself
stop asking the questions.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It’s all about seeing things in a different way.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Talking about seeing things in a different way, here’s
something a friend of mine came up with the other day. They took an ordinary
pepper and turned it into . . .</span></div>

Attend Conferences. Here's a FREE one.90% of people who write a book won’t ever get it published. A depressing fact but a fact all the same. The reason is simple. They don’t take the time to learn the craft. If you’re reading this you’re already ahead of most of those people.<br />
If you want another leg up ATTEND CONFERENCE.<br />
Of people who attend writing conferences 80% go on to be published. That’s a heck of a lot better odds than the 90% who don’t, wouldn’t you say.<br />
Now I know conferences can be expensive, some ranging over a thousand dollars for a few days.<br />
Luckily for you I know of one that’s FREE.<br />
That’s right, free. There’s no fees, no booking hotel rooms, and no traveling.<br />
Why? Because it’s completely online. It starts on Aug 13 and goes through the 14. There will be agents moving among the forums, helping polish work and possibly requesting manuscripts. It’s also a great place to learn about craft and to get help from people to hone your skills. This year they also have a $1000 cash prize for a first page contest. Come check it out. I guarantee it’s worth your time.<br />

Yes EDITING. I absolutely love taking someone else's story and finding ways to make it flow better, make sure the characters are the same in the way they look and speak, and ensure that the story is better for being in my hands. (I can't seem to stop myself as I do this with published stories too.) <br />
So I finally decided to become a Freelance Editor and I am open for business!!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This year they also have Anne Perry as the Keynote speaker. I'm looking forward to hearing her speak.<br />
<br />
Registration closes April 3 so if you don't have your tickets yet make sure to get them soon.<br />

The things I want you normally can't buy in a store, or make from things laying around the house. Normally I can't even put what I want into words.<br />
<br />
Too often at Christmas I find the bustle of buying and wrapping and preparing Christmas dinner more than a little stressful and wonder how my mother ever did it for twelve children, their spouses and however many grandchildren happened to be at the house. <br />
<br />
All over the country people prepare to serve huge meals. They'll spend the next few days wrapping cooking and scrubbing down every corner of the house where there family and friends will gather. <br />
<br />
But as I prepare a much smaller meal (one only meant for 5) my mind keeps shifting to the fact that there are hundreds of families this year who prepare for one less than they did last year. For some there are presents waiting for a child that they never had the chance to open, for others a pall of sadness fills the house as someone tries to step in for that special person who made Christmas magical.<br />
<br />
So this year with Christmas only days away my wish is for them. I wish them peace and the knowledge that though Christmas this year will be difficult, that you will always miss them, they are not gone forever and their love for you will remain no matter how many days and weeks pass.<br />
<br />
I personally do not know you. At least not that I am aware of, and perhaps this wish will never reach the eyes and ears of any of those that my wish is made for, but perhaps it will, and in that case I wish you a Merry Christmas and want you to know that my heart and my prayers go out to you in this time of need. <br />
<br />
May your loved one never be forgotten and that though I may not know you, you are not forgotten this holiday season.<br />
<br />
That is my wish this year.<br />
<br />

In my case that was Action Scenes, and after all the work to put this together I decided I should share it with more than the three people in my writing group. <br />
<br />
I'll take you through three different scenes that could be defined as ACTION or more tension. But first let's see how you go about making an action scene.<br />
<br />
<strong>First you have a section you know has action such as:</strong><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: blue;">Armond held
the gun. His hand shook as he pointed it at Kalin—the man who’d once been his friend.
He’d betrayed him so many years ago, sent him to live in bondage with the other
changelings.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: blue;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: blue;">Kalin held
out his hands, his gold sword shining in the pale light at his feet where he’d
dropped it when Armond pulled the gun. “Are you really going to kill me,
Armond?”<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: blue;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: blue;">Armond
nodded angrily. “Yes.” He pulled the trigger.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div>
<br />
This could definitely use some work. But how do you go about it?<br />
<br />
Follow these 6 rules and you'll be well on your way.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Step 1: Dump or spread out description.</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">If you're
all tense and in a battle, do you notice little details? Or would you notice
that they're about to hit you with their sword? I think it's the latter...-.
Tons of description will bog down your action. Use more description in more
relaxed, lazy times</span></div>
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Step 2: Word Choice</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">If action is quick use words that imply speed ai: flash,
whirl, sped</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Step 3: Short sentences</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Subject –
verb sentences are better for action. They're faster than other sentences. Like
your action should be. Don't believe me? Seems awkward? Then look at the
example.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Step 4: Short paragraphs.</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">If there's
something you wish to stress, make it into a teeny tiny paragraph of its own,
usually one or two sentences. Doing that puts more tension and makes the short
sentences work better. Attention is drawn to whatever you put into a small
paragraph.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Step 5: Congruity</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">The short
sentences don't flow together well yet, because of so much repetition. It could
be enhanced by changing the subject-verb pattern in a couple places, but don't
do it often, or you may ruin the effect.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Step 6: Structure and fragments</strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Sometimes
you can have good wording, but if you change the word order, or make it a
sentence fragment you will get the effect more. Yes, it may not be proper
English, regrettably, but it can totally change your scene for the better. That
is, if you do not overuse it. If you do overuse your fragments, your congruity
will be totally ruined and the scene will be stumbled over by your readers.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></div>
So let's go through these steps and see what we come up with.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Step 1: Dump
or Spread out description.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Armond held
the gun. His hand shook as he pointed it at Kalin—the man who’d once been his

See the difference?<br />
<br />
Now it's your turn. First take the following paragraph (yes I know it's horrible) and try to break it up, make it better. After that write or correct a scene of your own.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Chris
stepped forward, sword extended, then the weapons met. Next Chris turned,
pulling his sword up and it pulled free of the other man’s sword. In the next
moment the sword swung toward him and he ducked out of the way, falling to the
dirt. He knew if he didn’t do something soon he’d die. He picked up a rock and
threw it against the side of the other man’s head. The sword dropped to the
ground.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<strong>Not only does Zade
fight for his very soul, but he’s the last warrior charged with keeping the
villagers safe from a demon army. You can just imagine the conflict that goes
with having a demon inhabiting his soul when he’s supposed to keep everyone
safe. It gets him in a lot of tight spots (which I absolutely loved writing),
tight spots that he can’t pull himself out of without the help of the friends
he makes, friends who aren’t about to let him fight alone.<o:p></o:p></strong></div>

As a writer I find that it's difficult to really enjoy stories as much as I used to. The writing has to be great or the story incredible for me to stop slipping into critique mode.<br />
<br />
Miserere by Teresa Frohock did both. A story of redemption you follow Lucian as he tries to save the life of a little girl who came to him from Earth. <br />
<br />
I became lost in the story as he ran from his twin sister who wants him under her control and to give his soul to the Fallen as she has.<br />
<br />
Now he has to run to the only safe place for the girl and his only chance of escape, the very people he betrayed years ago.<br />
<br />
I loved this story and highly recommend it.Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13813034388044650466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3234503134679364852.post-65434726694964382892012-05-02T17:14:00.001-07:002012-05-02T17:14:40.713-07:00Writer's VOICE ContestBrenda Drake is doing a great contest over at <a href="http://brenleedrake.blogspot.com/">http://brenleedrake.blogspot.com/</a> I'm definitely signing up for it.<br />
<br />
So here goes. My pitch and the first 250 words from my book. (Okay I went to the end of the sentence.)<br />
<br />
Being eaten by demonic wolves was noton fourteen-year-old Tiani’s to-do list. But her best friend stupidly agreed to spend the night in the forest and she’s not about to let him go alone, even if it means facing down a demon. After everything he’s done to help her through her mother’s death, it’s the least she can do. <br />
<br />
Apparently, his loyalty isn’t as deep. <br />
<br />
Instead of helping her fight the wolvesoff, he runs. Before the wolves can tear her apart they’re chased away by Zade, a sixteen-year-old boy possessed by a slumbering fire demon. Zade’s nothing like a real demon … at least not any demon she’s ever heard about. Demons aren’t nice, and they certainly don’t teach people how to protect themselves. <br />
<br />
When Zade is injured helping her save her village from another wolf attack, the fire demon takes control,incinerating everything in its path. This is more like the demon she expected and he isn’t about to give Zade’s body back. Huddled in fear, the villagers agree on one thing–Zade must die before he kills them all.<br />
<br />
But kill Zade after all he’s done for her? He’s her friend. If she hurries she might be able to save him and her village, locking the demon away once more. That is if she succeeds.Not likely. And failure … well, if she’s lucky the demon will kill her before destroying everyone she knows. <br />
<br />
DAEMERKIN is an 85,000-wordYA fantasy told from multiple points of view. Fans of Sarah Rees Brennan’s The Demon Lexicon and Jonathan Stroud’s Bartimaeus Trilogy will also enjoy the YA fantasy DAEMERKIN. <br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Claws bit into the back
of Zade’s calf, tearing through flesh as they raked along his leg. He gasped, the
wolf’s breath making lifting the hair on the back of his neck. He twisted, its
jaws snapping shut an inch from his ear. The blade from his belt and sliced
across the wolf’s throat. Hot blood sprayed over his hands, filling the air
with a metallic scent. Zade turned back, his other hand rising as the rest of
the pack stalked toward him. Two already lay dead behind them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Zade’s grip on the
shuriken in his left hand tightened, the sharp rounded edges brushing his skin.
Three enormous wolves leapt toward him, their shoulders rustling the branches.
The shuriken sailed from his fingers, catching each before they came within five
feet of him. They dropped to the ground. The last three lost their nerve and
fled. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Slowly his muscles
relaxed. For now at least, the village was safe. He limped forward and bent
down by the first monstrous wolf.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Moonlight glistened off
the bloody five-bladed shuriken as Zade pulled it from the still warm body. He
wiped the weapon against his pants, the gouges along his calf stinging in the
cool night breeze. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

mind, searching the area for any more of the wolf-like maviel. The three
stalked through the forest near the ridge, their flight halted. As long as they
knew he was here, they shouldn’t come closer. </span></div>Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13813034388044650466noreply@blogger.com0
