Just liked the last one too much

Hey,

It's been way to long since I've written anything but it was because I loved what Wanda (my muse) said about the book. If it wasn't for readers like her I'd have a tough time keeping on, keeping on. I love writing and I would probably keep on but I love the good feedback; now the bad is a different story but I brace myself for the odd person that thinks it's a good thing to batter the author. It's one of the points that us authors have to take into account. That some people need to sling arrows to hurt and try and kill off the creative process. I think that if these people would push their creative side and put it out there once and see what the public says and take the slings and arrows of their peers they would have a better idea of what it's like. It's tough but then again sitting and writing 90.000 words is pretty tough too.
Hope things are doing great for everyone out there and he's one guy that loves anything creative that anyone does. It makes the world go around a little nicer.

What you say?

Hey,

I thought I'd let someone else talk about my books today. My muse for the last three books that I've written, had a comment on the first one of the Ross and Jena series. If you ever get a chance to meet this lady you should, Wanda is one of the best.
Bob has written the perfect action-adventure novel. If you like Robert B. Parker or James Patterson, you'll love this! With a cast of characters that keep you guessing throughout the book, "Last Ones Standing" takes you on a non-stop thrill ride from beginning to end. I would have to say though, that Jena is my favorite. Her tough, "take no prisoners" persona is direct and to the point and had me rooting for her all through the book! Then, there are moments that I literally shed tears for her for all her vulnerabilities. Thank you Bob for letting me be your Jena. I'm stronger now.

Love you and thank you so much,

Wanda

With a fan like this how could I ever think I could stop writing. Thanks Wanda. Love you too.

Having a Blast

Hey,

I think springtime is upon us here up north in Duluth. It's been another long cold winter but it was beautiful. Lots of snow for the skiers either downhill or the cross country crazies. The snowmobile trails were perfect this year and we even had a couple of snows worthy of snowball fights and snowmen.
But now comes my favorite time of the year. Where all of a sudden the trees go from sticks to full blown majesty in a week. It's one of the wonderful miracles of springtime. I even saw my first robin yesterday. Although a muted female she was a little on the thin side and she was doing her best to scratch out a living.
Got to get back to work writing so I can scratch out mine.

Talk soon,

Blaze of Glory

Hey,

Well a blaze of glory was what Ross and Jena were trying to do. They didn't quite die but Ross got shot in the ass one more time and both got shot up real bad. They were saved by one of the most unlikely people. This guy usually comes back for no one. Things have changed for Louis though since the death of his daughter or should I say murder.
Just another tidbit to let everyone know that I'm still writing no matter what. I might even have to delete it all and start over but not right now.

Trouble on the High Seas

Hey,

Just letting everyone know that the novel is coming along slowly. I get to this part of any book and it always seems to drag at around the 200 page mark. I guess the grind gets to be a grind right in there when I can't see the end and the middle is muddling around trying to break free. My protagonist characters are always biting off more than they can chew and sometimes they have to pay for their egos and then sometimes no matter what they do they're caught and can't find their way out of whatever is going to happen.
This time Jena and Ross are caught in Mexico not being able to get out because their vehicles have either been destroyed or not enough room in the others. They're trying to get out on horse back and it seems aircraft fly faster than horses can run. It's not looking good for them. It is the last novel of this series so I'm thinking that maybe they should die in a blaze of glory but it's hard for me to do that. I like happily ever after endings. It's the middles that are full of blood and guts.

Talk soon,

How's the next novel coming?

Yeah,

Yeah that's what I want to know. Well it's coming along slower than most. Too many things have been going way to well these days and I'm having trouble getting my characters to get to the business at hand. You'd think I wanted to write a novel about a love affair or something. I think I'm losing my grip of the bad guy versus the good guy and the good guy getting it done, whatever that might be.
I've got a publisher looking at all my stuff and we might find some terms that we both can live with. A contract isn't a contract until both people sign it.

Talk soon and remember http://www.dayofthedogs.com and copy and paste.
