Well last week was pretty eventful. One icy winter morning I slipped crossing the street and banged my head, receiving my first ever concussion. I've got to say it was pretty scary. I'm pretty much back to my old self now, so that's good. I've never been quite in my right mind anyway.
Anyhow, I spent about four days not moving around very much. The good thing was it gave me some time to do a little writing on the second book in the Dragon Island Legends series. I wrote about 2,200 words, so the word total is now at 3,400. I still have not come up with a title for it though.
Shadra, the 16 year old girl from the western Jongchin steppes, is rounding into form. I'm getting a good feel for who she is, although I think she will evolve as the story progesses. She has just experienced a tragedy, but now has a purpose.
I'm not quite sure what her journey will look like, but I do know where I want her to wind up. Will she arrive there when all is said and done? Maybe. She is headstrong and independent, so she might have other ideas. I'll wait and see. Sometimes characters take over and do something unexpected, and usually it's magic. I'm looking forward to seeing how things develop.
I'll let you know how things go.
Peace
