Too much enthusiasm! Just yesterday I finished putting all of the characters into my yWriter project...
And now that Lirin's history is pretty much done altering itself drastically in my head...
And now that I have plenty of good music to listen to...
And since yWriter makes revision and editing tidy and easy...
The Lirin Bahonan series is going to make a grand return!
Err... Sort of. Of course I know what I'm talking about, but do you? Probably half the stuff I say on my blog doesn't make a speck of sense to you, but, ah, whatever. Once I actually get a novel published, maybe at least 10% more will make sense.
That aside.
Lirin Bahonan: Rising Rage (abbreviated to LB:RR) is going to be rewritten. Same for Legends of Tanakosk, War of the Mask, whatever the Tacian one was called, and, of course, two more after that...
The fifth one, the one after the Tacian one, is going to kind of dark, where Lirin has to go track down his daughter Lexi and also sort out some super big messes he's gotten himself into.
The sixth one, possibly the last, has a surprising twist to it... Our heroic Lirin Bahonan is--!
HALT. That's enough! You'll see!
Well, I've got stuff to do today, but I'm going to get writing! And for a reminder to us all...
DON'T DO THE STUFF WOLF DOES! YOU'LL DRIVE YOURSELF NUTS!
As in, make your novel easy to re-write and revise by using a program other than Microsoft Word or Rich Text Document... If it's a long one, that is. I advise yWriter, since I can't shut up about it. :P
Also, if it's a story as complex as Lirin Bahonan (Ah-HEM! *chest swells*), make sure you have plenty of time for everything to kick in before you dive into it.
That said, I'm off.

Busy, busy, busy!
So busy! Did I mention I was busy?!
ACTUALLY... I could be un-busy if I wanted too, but that would drive me insane if I did.
Sorry I haven't posted lately. Things will pick up sooner than later, I'm certain, because I just finished the looooooooong summary of "ELDENDOR: The Rise of Dagria".
...Did I also mention what a pain it is to type that out every freakin' time? GAH! WHINEWHINECOMPLAIN!!!!
Okay, I'm done. I could make it shorter if I wanted to, but the thing is, I don't. ^_^
That aside, I'm coming up with yet another novel idea right now, alongside the Evaran military one, which is kind of at the bottom of the list right now. Lately, it's been just that nameless novel about the Ancients. I'm also typing up a better summary for that one. Bamborain rains is being boring right now, and I'm getting ready to dive into a BIG part in "ELDENDOR: The Rise of Dagria *Steeeeeeeeeeeeeem!* and I'm even getting ready to start writing a script in April! You know which one; the one about the weird alien guy. It's been entitled "Stranger". I don't know if it's temporary or not, but it will do.
I've been thinking about finally re-writing "Lirin Bahonan" lately, but that'll have to wait. Awhile. A whole series? Yeah. It's not like I have writers block or something like that, but I just don't feel like it. I'll figure it out; I always do.
Right! So, that new idea; it's basically set in Tiada, which is the third Guardian-ruled country (Eldendor and Evagren being first and second), and it's element is mainly "water" (whereas Eldendor is "fire" and Evagren is "earth"), and pirates are known to live in numerous places there, so not many people dare to set foot there.
Tiadans are known to have fins (which they can fold up quite tightly when not in use) on their arms and legs. Their ears are pretty much fin-like, but averagely-sized, perhaps a little bigger, like an elf's.
The main character here is Bernard, who currently lacks a last name. He's fifteen, and he's Tiadan. Brown hair, fairly tanned skin and blue eyes. He tends to wear a bandanna around his neck a lot, too.
The basic plot is where he's merrily (or, not so much) living his life in Bleumir Village, a village that sits in front of a vast jungle, which has a path that leads to the city. All the houses, facing the beach, are on top of one long deck.
... BOOOOOOOOOOORING!
No, I wasn't done yet. Anyway, a pirate ship comes to the village one day and a band of ruthless pirates, led by a sassy, petite female captain named Tara Cleaver, come and raid the people. When Bernard tried to confront the Captain Tara, she only ends up kidnapping him and making him her "cabin boy".
Of course she did! Because all pirates are real jerks like that! Yes, I know, pirates were faaaaaaaaaaaar nastier than the books, but hey, we've gotta tone it down...
Hrrm.
Anyway, that's as far as I've thought into this. I have a picture of Tara Cleaver, so I'll post it later.
So, that's all for now! I'm working on summaries, my usual novels, the further development of ideas, and the new plot for Feng Song. Oh, by the way, I made the cover image for it. What do you think?

FENG SONG
MARY HILLS
I made it using Microsoft Paint, a scanned drawing of mine, and a lot of embossing via Artweaver. I likes it. I may or may not actually use it when/if I go to publish it, but it's considerable. After all, HONG LANG ZHONG is THE main picture!
Also known as Zhong, he's the Guardian of the Sun. Very important. He, alongside Huli Jing Lin, one of the the Guardians of Nature, are my two favorites of all the guardians in Feng Song. XD
Hm, I sure do have a thing for guardians...
Anyway, now I'm gone, but not for good. Until then... Ta-ta!
