…for the next five months.

I have two books to write. Non-fiction, religion-type, Catholic books. Deadline: May for both.

A few pamphlets.

Varia.

Over the next month, I want to finish the YA novel (3 chapters to go), send it off to people who might help me get it published, and then start on the next one. Not a YA novel, but the sort of mystery-themed novel I had started before the YA idea jumped into my head. I’ve spent the morning reading through the 15 chapters I have of the latter, and it’s not awful. There is one character I really need to flesh out more. He is supposed to be enigmatic, but he is a little too enigmatic at this point. There are points and themes that pop up early that I need to revive and explore and resonate more in the later stages. But at this point, I’m okay with what I have…

So…look for minimal blogging. Bookblogging, an interesting link or two. Go to other places for your extensive religion/Catholic news – cause you’re not going to find it here – not that you have for a while, anyway!
