All things so not in order...

I have been scrambling trying to finish You're Always in the Last Place You Look. It's going, but slowly. I will have some re-writes to do. Blah... But I still hope to have the first draft done by March 1st-ish. My goal was to keep this book under 100K but as I watch the word count climb, I'm not sure it will happen. Anyone who has read Six or Trey Grey know I have a problem with short works. I just can't seem to avoid going deep into my characters and stories. And that takes a lot of words.

I am also working on a short called; My Bully. I hope to have this submitted for an anthology Harmony Ink is putting out, and if I'm lucky they will like it enough to include it. Yeah, I know, laugh away. I suck at shorts. But I am trying to keep this simple. *groan*

Out of the Dark is still my next project. I have about 35K written that needs some re-working, but it is a start. A little teaser... Trey does something truly stupid in this book that backfires in a really big way. Recall how much he dislikes therapists? Yeah... Well, he meets one that pushes all the wrong buttons in him.

Thank you to all the folks who have read Trey. Without you there wouldn't be a second book. I can't believe how much people have connected with Trey as a character. I love him, of course. I designed him after all. He will always be one of my favorite characters, even years from now.
