Don&#8217;t give up on me: I&#8217;m working on book 8, which has given me considerable problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first write got me quite far when I noticed it was going the wrong way so I discarded everything apart from perhaps the first few hundred words. That means a lot of new <g class=\"gr_ gr_4 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar multiReplace\" id=\"4\" data-gr-id=\"4\">story<\/g> and new words, which eats up time. This time however the story is on the right track and it&#8217;s also &#8216;making tracks&#8217;. I&#8217;ve been able to add quite a lot to it, now the direction is clear. I had to write a complete backstory on someone who isn&#8217;t even in this story, just to get and keep the facts straight. It&#8217;s the first time I had to do this but I found it helps a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, I mentioned &#8216;works&#8217; in progress. Unsworth part 3 is slowly coming along. That&#8217;s a good thing. My friend, Will Forest, is going over another story I wrote. An urban fantasy in a whole other setting than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also book two of <strong>Murphys In Space<\/strong> which I am working on, but with the Naked Crow story under steam, that will have to be patient. And there is the Crazy Pictures story I&#8217;m developing. That too suffers from Naked Crow-iness. All in due time though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, dear reader, A new post by P.Z. Walker, and not on PZWalker.com this time.
