Site (Jetpack) issues and some novels identified
7

Hi all,

Having problems with Jetpack operating with WordPress. It means that I frequently can’t post comments on my own site from my phone. Given that I do most of my WordPress reading and comments on the train to and from work using the phone , this is a problem. (That also explains why so many of my comments are pretty brief and not well thought out). I’ve tried fixing it but to no avail, so you are all stuck with me replying to your comment son this site when I get home of an evening.

This said, onto the business of writing. As you know I have said that I am breaking down my big novel into smaller ones. These will all overlap in places, be different genres, and be aimed at different markets. The ones that I have identified so far are:

Tempting in Shade

Genre: Adventure/Fantasy/Coming of Age

Pari Azar is almost sixteen and feels that the world is crashing down around her. The man she idolised has married someone else and his bride humiliated her in front of everyone that she

  1. Sorry to hear about all the software issues. It seems that WP overall tends to have mobile trouble.
    And those ‘blurbs’ sound awesome =) I hope there’s enough detail on that political struggle, and I’m fascinated by ‘artificial life forms’, for lack of a better phrase =)


    1. Yep – the WP issue on my phone is very frustrating 🙁 Thanks about your enthusiasm for my blurbs. The internal political struggles of Shushtar are already partially written as part of the big tome that I am now dismantling. The only issue I have is that if I leave them as they are currently written then halfway through the story (many hours after Pari leaves Shushtar) will change from political/religious struggle to Aliens-style horror. Because the original tome had other events happening, it made sense. But as a stand-alone it doesn’t. So I need to figure that out. BTW – as you may have guessed, most of my novels are intended to represent periods of time ranging from a few weeks to a few days.

      As for the artificial life forms, there are wheels within wheels where they are concerned 🙂 Hopefully I will manage them well. =)


  2. Seems there are a few different issues with WordPress at the moment. As they say in the classics, ‘thou shall overcome.’ I’ m looking forward to being one of your readership when the novels are published. Your teasers have hooked me.


    1. That is brilliant =) Thank you. A lot of pressure to now make sure I finish and that they are worthwhile =) I must admit that I am taking my time because I want to get them perfect. I am probably setting myself too much of a challenge because I want each to be stylistically different and also appeal to different readerships. Why? Because the world is made up of lots of different people with lots of different tastes and I want as many of them as possible to find something that entertains or provokes meaning to them. =) Obviously I am an egomaniac, eh? =)

      Thanks so much. It means a lot to me that you and my other friends “out there” read my blog and comment.

  3. LockDown seems the most intriguing to me. But I love the phrase “…..where there is a psychopath there is a way,…”
