The Beginning of the Legacy Universe is All in the Mythology

One of the first fiction narratives in my Legacy Universe is The Story of Vigdis and Adalbrandir.

What if you knew the true story of the gods and how these immortals came to Earth? Who would you tell? 

Vigdis discovered the reality of the ancient gods. She and her mortal lover, Adal, confronted the pantheon of liars, murderers, and thieves.  

This story is the mythological tale of how Vigdis and Adal became twin swords in the care of their son, Jacobous for an eternity. 

I begin this journey in January 2022. I have the mythology mapped out. I know how it's supposed to go, but do I write the narrative like a modern-day tale, or write it like I was Homer? 

Maybe a little of both? 

I will let Vigdis and Adal tell me how they would like to be immortalized in script. 

After all, it is their story. 

Have a great and wonderful day.

 

Mirror, Mirror Submission: The Reality Hackers for a Fairy Tale Short Story Competition Completed

How would you write your own fairy tale? 

That is what one anthology asked writers to write about and DL Mullan obliged. A 5000 word limit and an imaginative narrative to create. As of September 20th, the author of Undawnted submitted her version of a fairy tale called: The Reality Hackers. 

Mirror, Mirror on the wall who is the most cunning of them all? 

We won't know until acceptance/rejection letters go out in the November/December time frame. 

Hopefully, this time traveling, scifi, fantasy, romance will gain a place in this unique anthology. We will let you know.

What is your version of reality? And, what would you be willing to do to keep it? 

Have a great and wonderful day.

Paranormal Romance for the Election Hangover

This national election cycle left me dreadfully dreary. Votes are still being counted. In order to cure my election hangover of too much television news, brightly lit electoral college maps, and a host of very unhappy commentators on CBS and PBS, I began to edit and write. 

I have been working on getting two different types of paranormal romance novels ready for publication. Romance is a bit of a stretch since I am not a romance type writer. I write for plot and character, not to be provocative. 

We will go by the Merriam Webster definition of romance:

a medieval tale based on legend, chivalric love and adventure, or the supernatural (2) :  a prose narrative treating imaginary characters involved in events remote in time or place and usually heroic, adventurous, or mysterious (3) :  a love story especially in the form of a novel

That better suits the way I write: for love. I will leave the reader to fill in all the blanks!

How about you?

Have a great and wonderful day!
