Masochistic?

February 10, 2013

Could an author be considered masochistic if they start to like editing?

Okay, maybe it's not the editing I like so much as seeing the characters come to life, watching the story develop and unfold, and discovering what happens on the next page.  I liked my characters when I wrote them, but now after three revisions, I love them.  I want to learn more about them.  I want to learn more about their story, their back story.  I can't wait to find out how they'll react to the situations they are thrown into.  I am enjoying the way the story grows every time I make a revision pass-through. 

The characters and the story excited me at the beginning, but not I'm ecstatic.  I find myself anticipating the wrap-up of this part of the story, so I can begin the next part.  I hope you find stories that make you want to keep turning the pages.

 

Happy Reading,

"Respect of the Dryads" an O'Neill Secure side job.

Who do the Werewolves and Fairies call when the FBI can’t handle it?

O’Neill Secure, Incorporated.

When treaties are violated and war is on the brink, Mike and Sarah O’Neill are called in to rescue kidnapped Fairies from a hostile Werewolf pack.  The fight will be to the death, since that’s the penalty the Werewolves face for slave trafficking.

No one knows just where, in the vast woodland reserve, the rogue pack is hidden, forcing Sarah to ask the Dryads of the forest for help.  Will Sarah gain the respect of the Dryads in time to defeat the kidnappers before war breaks out?
