Re: Current Fantasy Works
Yes, actually, I have! I skipped the tricky bit and carried on, and everything is beginning to flow again, just like it should, which is wonderful! Thanks for asking!  It's so nice to not be stuck in a horrible rut.

Re: Current Fantasy Works
Come November 1st I'll be starting a new fantasy novel, aimed at middle grade or YA audience. It's a while since I've written fantasy except for one short story, so I'm excited to be going there again. I can't wait to get started on it!

Re: Current Fantasy Works
Heh, I'm doing it the other way around: I'm rewriting parts of my first novel (fantasy), and I just got started on a short that may or may not be fantasy.
(Not doing NaNo, and never will. High danger of burnout.)

Re: Current Fantasy Works
I'm working so hard to get this rewrite finished, I may burn out BEFORE NaNo. That would probably be a first.

Re: Current Fantasy Works
Just an update: I've not been here in a while. My slave and spy story is three chapters from the end of the second draft, and a professional editor is working through it - she does a chapter a week and is a few chapters behind me.

Re: Current Fantasy Works
My current works are:
Lament: Book one of the HavenShade chronicles (four book series), a chronicle about a world that is nearly anihilated by a rift and the enemy that pours through it, but manages to pull together under the bravery of seemingly ordinary people to fight for their existence.
Why Martial Artists Suck: An essay on why martial arts, with so much to offer society, can't sell their own product.
Starlight: A short story that is written almost like poetry about a fairy princess with no memory and a wulf who she befriends (written in tribute to Patricia A McKillip, one of my favorite fiction authors).
I have split my time about 70/20/10 between these three subjects, respectively.
I write martial arts material whimsically, whenever classes and events in life invoke philisophical interest to me.
I do the shorts stories obediently, in hopes that I can get some marks in my cover letter by publishing a few in fantasy mags.
I do the four book fantasy series one chapter at a time as I feel ready to write them (out of order and sometimes even from other books) and in juggernaut-like fashion. I sometimes even forgetting to go to work when I get too caught up in writing it.

Re: Current Fantasy Works
I'm hoping to take my YA fantasy novel from last November on vacation with me and try to write the ending. That's the only fantasy project I have currently in the queue.
Michael, you ARE very organized!

Bwahahaha...
Someone once said: "Planning is essential, plans are useless."
So true it is. I just sit down and write and that's it. It happens to work out about that percentage over a month, just by accident.
The only part of that I actually do on purpose are the short stories. I would rather not bother with them, but I hope they will be a bullet point for getting larger works read.
(side note: That quote has been attributed to Eisenhower, Clausewitz, and Winston Churchill)
