Horseman is DONE!
It's done. It's over. Not Your Father's Horseman, my first solo novel, my first NOVEL to be published, has been sent to the publisher. Now it's time to turn to Belladonna.
I feel almost let down. The tension that was building is gone. I'm sure, as July 1 gets nearer, that I'll start stressing again, but for right now, I'm feeling excited more for Bella than I am worried about the launch.
Belladonna Dreams is moving in a different direction. Horseman was dark fantasy - Bella is paranormal romance, so I've got two different storylines: the fight between good and evil (something I can't seem to get away from), and the growing relationship between Sapph and James, the main characters. I've got a 6-book story arc planned for Sapph - I think James will be there for most of it, but I'm not sure yet.
I'm also contemplating what POV I'm going to use for this. Normally, I write 3rd person limited. But all the shorts I've done with Sapph before have been 1st person POV. I like her voice - but I don't think 1st POV will work for this novel. We'll see. I'm still in the plotting stages.
Look for the website to be coming soon too. I've been anticipating this for a while, and I really hope you guys will like it.
More later...
