A guilt ridden cyborg.
Your fears made flesh.
A fiancé's betrayal turns her into a literal monster.
The beast desires to kill again, but can she use her sliver of willpower to stop it.

I had to add a lot to Dreadful Of Wolf and Gods this weekend to adapt it into a novel rather than a collection of short stories.
Trevor's story needs to have a monumental moment where his motivations begin to be less selfish. Where he had more to accomplish than clicking his bloodlust for revenge.

And we finally have the final, text version of Issue 2 of The BulletProof Ghost! The reflection of the future and the grocery store are directly influenced by both Boonville and Tennyson, Indiana of my youth.

I fibbed a little since yesterday. I probably won't go directly into Chapter 3 for the 2nd draft. I've decided that as short stories the end of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods, the ending is fine, but as a novel, I need to tie up some loose ends.
So I'm restructuring the end of the #book.

Next writing session will hopefully allow me to break into Chapter 3 (or 0 depending on your point of view) of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods. Technically the short story version of Scarlet Sheets won a small award.
Looking forward to knocking out the whole book's 2nd draft by year's end.

I restructured a bit of the first chapter of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods. I decided that Lynn hitting a naked guy turning into a werewolf was more interested than her dealing w a rando in a bar.
Have to catch the publishers' attention and grab the reader right away or all of this will fail. #booksky

I didn't hit my goal of finishing the second Chapter of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods, second draft this weekend. I ended up altering quite a bit of Chapter 1 in order to make the events of 2 make more sense or add emotional weight to the end of Chapter 1. I'm close though.😅

Hoping to get at least up to 13k words of my 100k+ manuscript second draft of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods this weekend.
Sarah and I are getting a used Subaru today, so I have to carve out some time later.
I might do a live write in on tiktok, we'll see.

Well, it looks like Dreadful is getting a few more curse words bc I originally wrote it for a multi author anthology that didnt allow that. Now Trevor gets to drop eff bombs. 😅

When I say I've improved as a writer in the last several years, I wasn't kidding. Comparing the final version of the original short story 'Wolves in the Ice' vs Second draft of new Dreadful novel that folds that story into it's first chapter.

I struggle less with writer's block and more with time block. My ideas are backlogged for years at this point.
Day 7 and this fact reflects the reality of writing for many of us. Sure, some writers finish a whole novel in a month but that's not always the case. If you're a writer, have you struggled with writer's block? What got you out of it?
