Good News

It's been a good week. Heard from agent arcaedia that Bantam liked the revised outline for the new series, and they made a nice offer. I'm happy, agent is happy and editor is happy. It's a good place to be.

Manuscript is due June 1st, so it will be a busy few months of writing. One of the changes was to increase the scope of the story, which meant adding viewpoint characters. Last night I was pondering how to introduce one of the characters, and this morning as I drank my coffee, the phrase came to me Upon her arrival she wrote three letters, each with its own cipher. And I knew that this was exactly where I needed to start, and what this scene would tell us about her character.

I love it when a plan comes together.
