The Writing Moment

I finished writing the sequel to “A Tribe Called Death”. The second book is “Alive and Dead”. It’s a smaller novel, just 189 pages, about 40,000 words. Was written fast for me, begun in July, finished a few days ago.

In parallel to writing it, I edited and revised “A Tribe Called Death”, trying to make it worthy of an agent’s interest.

Yesterday, I began writing the third book in the series, “A Shadow of Life”.

Of course, all this novel writing has cut into other writing, like blog posts. That’s also because I work around medical appointments, social commitments, housework, DIY projects, and the minutiae of living like eating, sleeping, bathing, exercising. It’s better to stay busy and focused rather than drifting, though.

On I go, writing like crazy at least one more time.

Wendell Berry Said

Wendell Berry was one of my good friend’s favorite writers. My friend preceded Berry in Death by over a decade but both loved farming and lamented many of the things humans do while declaring, “Progress.”
