I thought I might try my hand at a full-length novel. Actually, the idea germinated for about a decade, but actual work was spotty. Signing up for The Write Practice helped immensely by imposing discipline, routine and structure, and through its varied and valuable course syllabus. I was then able to finish the book in record time.
The book is alternative history action/adventure set in the present day.
Premise: A dissolute intelligence operative reluctantly helps the British Empire prevent the reunification of the Confederate States and United States of America, a cause he secretly embraces.
After all the writing, professional editorial diagnostic and beta readers, I am now deep in the throes of the publishing process, hoping to find a traditional publisher to call home.
I’ll keep you posted on my progress.
Also, as a giveaway, I’m offering a random scene to the first hundred people who sign up to my mailing list. Just sign up and I’ll send it along.
