The other manuscripts never materialised. Of course, they will now, those prodigal jesters. It’s Murphy’s Law.
The matchbox car of Riley’s is there to give some sort of perspective to the thickness of the documents, but I’m not sure if it worked or not. Think of it this way: the stack would’ve been twice as high if I hadn’t got these printed double-sided instead of single-sided, which I wanted. These were expensive enough.
Now for the rest of the year – and probably beyond! Who knows? – I’ll be going through these editing and re-writing. Mostly the latter. Especially the bottom book in the picture, the thicker one, which is the first book in a trilogy. The second book is on the top. The third book is still in my head.
They’re not good at the moment. I know it. But they can be.
And will be.
Someday.

Woohoo! So I take it these aren’t the works that landed you a certain Mr. Ellenberg?
I’m knee deep in revisions myself. Sigh.
Can we get any more stats on your MSs–genre?
Yup, the other ones will show up shortly when you least expect them too.
Jordan – No, he hasn’t seen these and I won’t ask him to see them until I am especially satisfied they’re the best they can be.
Once done they will be fantasy trilogy.
Sorry to hear you had to re-print them, they’re quite a stack !
You’re right – they’ll turn up again. But it never hurts to have a second set. You can mark one up and use the original for reference.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE fantasy trilogies.
