Meandering on Monday with Janet Lane Walters #BWLAuthor #MFRWAuthor #Reading #Writing #Thoughts - Fantasy

Meander 1 - Reading - Took a break from Katherine Kurts's books to read the new books from BWL - Started teh Tainted Journey but have to go back and read the first book in the series. Read and enjoyed Legacu of Love by Victoria Chatham. Reviewed this really great book. Also read When Destiny Calls by  Tricia McGill and found this a delightful story. Also reviewed the book. Didn't read my own release Haunted Dreams.

Meander 2 = Thoughts - Fantasy - Oneof my critique partners surprised me when she asked who I would recommend in fantasy for her to try. I recommended Andre Norton's Witch World series as they're classics. Of course there's Tolkein's fancasy stories. I began to think about the many worlds of fantasy and realized there are so many different ways for fantasy to go. Some are closer tofairy tales and some are close to science fiction but there are many fantasy elements. There are usually esp powers and things like healing through touch. There can be weapons that are enchanted, There are animals like dragons and horses that talk to those they know. The spectrum is wide and so are the themes. Many times there's a quest, there's good versus evil. There can be elemtnts of mystery and stories and those going from child to adult. The range is wide.

Meander 3 - Writing - Working through the 5th to 7th drafts of my story a chapter at a time. Am moving fairly well and soon I'll have this draft done. Probably not before the end of the minth but soon after. Then it's time out to do the CAF for the book and send it off to Jude with a hint as to when I'll have the book finished. Sure hope my next Moonchild will start to take shape. It's becoming hard and i may need to change who are to be the characters and move that one to the next one in the series. We'll see whathappens.
