I know, it's been awhile. A very long while. I've been so busy with school, it has not been easy keeping up with the writing. Thankfully, this four-week break from school has given me the opportunity to write more and complete more chapters.
Speaking of which, I just completed two more chapters along with a few important scenes throughout LTG: Zannophia. I don't write from beginning to end as many young writers might do. I write as things come into my mind. I will say that it is imperative that a writer should have a basic structure to their plot as well as plenty of back story, which I have found makes for a really good mystery element.
For your patience I am going to reveal a handful of scenes I've written over the past couple of weeks. These scenes will include:
- A Gem Lord's grand mansion surrounded by a lavish water garden
- The revelation of a Gem Lord in disguise
- A battle between a Gem and a Demavoth
- An explanation of Veniale and Mortale, two types of "peccatum" or transgressions, as well as the grim visuals of Veniale. You probably won't want to know what Mortale looks like...at least not yet.
- An introduction of the beautiful white, winged creatures called Swarlas (which some might say look like a cross between a swan, a dragon, and fantastical elements).
As a final thought, I was thinking about constructing and releasing a possible teaser trailer for the book. How does everyone feel about that?
