Fellow blogger NHFalcon has begun publishing his in-progress technothriller, The Price of Our Blood, on his blog. Head over and check it out.
It’s rare that I sit down and try to do any kind of writing, and at the end of it, I haven’t done something at least serviceable. I enjoy writing tremendously, and have been blessed both with the ability to do it well and the time in which to do it. I appreciate both blessings, and try not to take them for granted.
But I can’t write long fiction. I can sit spellbound at a character an author has so brought to life that I shed real tears for her, and marvel at the precision with which seemingly disparate storylines are unified—but couldn’t write that character or tie those plots together myself for anything. Any attempts I’ve ever made have been laughably remedial, and though I haven’t tried in some time, I have no reason to believe I’ve suddenly grown the wiring for it.
So I’m impressed when someone serves it up for consumption. Good luck with this, NHFalcon!
