I&#8217;ve written over 60k words the last couple of weeks, and everything is still flowing smoothly. For those waiting on SOTM, I&#8217;m not quite in an emotional place to get back into it full steam, but I&#8217;m always working on it a little here and there.<\/p>\n<p>As to what&#8217;s actually going to see a release soon, one is already out at SOL, and should be out at Lit soon. It&#8217;s a story taking place after Blackhawk and Queen Alicia, starring Mindblind, Arilee, and Christi. It&#8217;s an episode of life, much like King Thakkorias and Queen Alicia. I loved writing Ari again, and I hope she comes back to visit my muse more often!<\/p>\n<p>The next thing to come out after that will probably be that long puttering Mindblind story. It&#8217;s called &#8220;Lowborn&#8221; and details his history, from about the same time period as Casting Off Convention and To Catch a Merchant Princess do for Christi, Thakkor, and Alicia. I have four chapters of it complete, and I&#8217;m working on the fifth. Coming along nicely, but I can&#8217;t say for sure when it will be finished. I&#8217;ll do my best to keep this page updated, as well as my SOL blog.<\/p>\n<p>There will be more, from this pen name and my alternate. Only time will tell when and how much. All I know is that it&#8217;s nice to be back in the saddle, and excited to write again.<\/p>\n<p>I have plans to do some updates to the website. The first one will be small. I&#8217;m going to post a copy of an old story for those interested. It&#8217;s not the best in the world, but it was the original version of &#8220;Harvest of Blood&#8221;. I thought some might find it interesting to see how my writing has evolved, and how the characters\/story from that tale evolved from a concept story to set up an NPC in my D&amp;D game into a story simply for reading.<\/p>\n<p>The second plan is to update the characters pages with darn near every recurring character in all stories. I&#8217;m going to lean away from the &#8220;powers&#8221; thing that I have on the existing pages, and more toward physical descriptions. There may even be illustrations, if something works out, showing you how I envision the characters.<\/p>\n<p>Enough for now. You can hop over to my SOL page to read &#8220;Missionary Impossible&#8221;, and I&#8217;ll post up a link when it goes live at Lit.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.darkniciad.com\/covers\/mission_imp_cover.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Cover Image<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Not going to add a new entry, so the story is now <a href=\"http:\/\/www.literotica.com\/stories\/showstory.php?id=441457\" target=\"_blank&quot;\">Live at Lit<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s taken some time, but I think I might finally have my writing spark back.
