A Letter From the Author:

Hi everyone,

I'm going to start by saying that Book Three is by no means finished. I have the first six chapters pretty much 'ready' after two months of hard work. As I move forward, I'm going to be taking greater care in my writing than I have in the past.

That means that, going forward, chapters will be fewer and farther between as I refine and perfect each one. That can't be helped, but the reason I've decided to go ahead and start posting is that in writing both Book One and Book Two, I've found that interaction drives my creativity as much as anything.

I love interacting with readers. Sometimes someone will see a connection that I never noticed, but that fits so perfectly into the story that I can't not use it after they've pointed it out. Other times someone will see a logical flaw that I can go back and fix, and become a better writer for it :-)

I'm also employing new writing techniques that I've learned. Probably the most 'jarring' change from the past is that I'm going to be skipping ahead more, trying to focus on the more action-oriented points of the story. I'm also cutting back on the narrative a little bit. Anyone who's spent more than five minutes talking to me knows how I tend to ramble ;-)

So with all that said, I'm going to start posting some time today. I need to do a title page first, for which this 'letter' will be the book's preface, but I wanted to post it ahead of time just so we're all on the same page. I hope that my extra effort in trying to polish each chapter comes through.

Love,
~Zoe
