So, um, School. It's happening again this year, unfortunately. I don't think I'll be as swamped as I was last semester, but it's too early in the semester to promise anything. I'll be doing NANO again this year too, so around Novemeber I'll disappear to write the sequel to Cat's Eye, which I still need to finish posting up here.
SamoaPhoenix and I now share a joint account under the penname Storyteller Phoenix. We have just started posting a story which we have been working on since December, entitled Chronicles of an Evil Overlord. Go check it out.
Um, I've been studding Arthurian Legends for about... four years now... shit. The rate at which I plow through this stuff makes it seem longer. I think it's at the point where not only my friends are concerned, but I'm starting to become concerned with this rather large obession as well. The Heart of Camelot is my first really big project that I've sent out to public view. I'll try and update as often as possible, but because of my distrust of computers, all of my work is hard copy, and my short attention span makes typing already written stuff difficult.
The Heart of Camelot is the first of what will hopefully be a four book series. This one is based upon Mordred's life and various legends that would have occured during that time. The next one will be the Soul of Camelot, and will be about the lives of Mordred's three children and the fall of Camelot. It will be from the perspective of Mordred's second son, Melou but will be about his eldest, Melehan. Last is the Body of Camelot. That one is still on the drawing board, but will probably be about Uther Pendragon's reign and the beginning of Arthur's from Merlin's point of view, maybe Jenal's. The fourth one... well, that's for me to know, and you to find out.
Cat's Eye Private Investigators is my NANO novel, and the plan is that every NANO story I write will take place in this universe. It's about a former sidekick, the Bengal (as in the cat, not the tiger), who's moved on to try and become a super hero in her own right. The city she's chosen has basically been taken over by a super villian, so she's got her work cut out for her when it comes to changing things. She also ends up with a team of powered and non powered people, because I can't write a story with just one hero.
The Band Justice force is a tale based upon my experiences in Band. The basic story behind it is that I have a friend who is Batman, and because of her the rest of my friends decided that we wanted to be Super Heros too. That night we wore sheets as capes to the Band Dance. Our head director left, and the director who stepped up into her place was a jerk. The Marching Band went on tour, everyone got a stomach flu, except us (although we did get a head cold) and we went on Tower of Terror and Indina Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye a million times. It's supposed to be in the style of a really corny old Super Hero comics, so keep that in mind while reading it. So, if you've ever had a band tour where everyone got sick, an evil band director and a goofy group of band friends, you'll enjoy that story.
So, yeah. That's that.
