Writing Goals

One of the things I did this year was set a goal for writing.  On January 1st 2012, I decided that I would try and write 6 pages per day.  I’ve been keeping track since then.  Although there were times when I was behind my goal ( especially over the summer), right now, I’m 60 pages ahead, so that means I’m going to finish the year ahead.

In 2013, I plan to increase my goal to 8 pages per day.  I had hoped to publish five books this year, and it looks like it’s only going to be three, and that is only because one was already written at the start of the year.  Of course if someone were to make a His Robot Girlfriend movie (are you listening Spielberg?) or a Senta and the Steel Dragon Movie (what do you say, Peter Jackson?), then I could quit my day job and focus on writing.  Maybe even a Blood Trade movie (Wes Craven?).

The Many Adventures of Eaglethorpe Buxton is now available!

The Many Adventures of Eaglethorpe Buxton is now availabe at Smashwords and Amazon for $2.99.  Click on either ebook store link.

Eaglethorpe Buxton, famed adventurer and story-teller, friend to those in need of a friend and guardian to those in need of a guardian. He is a liar and braggart, not to be trusted, especially around pies. Who are we to believe? Buxton himself leads us through The Many Adventures of Eaglethorpe Buxton.  This volume includes the previously published Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Elven Princess in which our hero comes to the aid of… a poor orphan? An elven princess?   And Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Sorceress.  When the sorceress, subject of Eaglethorpe’s play arrives with fire in her eyes, the hapless story-teller must pretend to be his good friend Ellwood. Will he pull off this charade and survive? And what happens when the real Ellwood shows up? One can never tell, especially when Eaglethorpe tells the story.  Plus thrill to three all new Eaglethorpe stories.  In Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Queen of Aerithraine, our hero is back in his homeland, just in time to stop a mysterious murder, meet the Queen, solve the mystery of his best friend, and face off against a zombie apocalypse!  In Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Amazons, our hero and his new friend Percival Thorndyke tramp through the horrible, stinking, insect-infested land of Ennedi in search of treasure.  Eaglethorpe must deal with man-hating Amazons, jungle-dwelling goblins, vicious centaurs, the dreaded and feared frog-bear, and a companion who seems determined to get himself killed.  In Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Day of the Night of the Werewolf, the famed story-teller is sent to hunt down an unusual werewolf and manages to run into practically everyone he has ever met along the way.  The Many Adventures of Eaglethorpe Buxton is a farcical fantasy of heroic proportions, sure to elicit more giggles than gasps.

Eaglethorpe Buxton Update

I am exactly halfway through the final edit of The Many Adventures of Eaglethorpe Buxton.  I’ve been working my butt off to get it done, so I’m hopeful that it will be only a few more days.  Watch this spot for the publication announcement.

Eaglethorpe Buxton Update

Wow!  It’s been a tough few weeks.  I’ve not had nearly as much time to write as I wanted.  I was way ahead on my goal, but now I’ve nearly fallen behind.

I’ve just finished chapter 12 (of 20) of Eaglethorpe Buxton and the Day of the Night of the Werewolf.  I had kind of figured I’d be done by now.

Well, I’m already looking forward to summer, so I can go back to writing full time.  First quarter of school is now over.  Only three more to go.
