I wrote more on Claimings tonight, but my muse has darted ahead to a scene that I think is near the end.  Liam has a conversation with one of the Imshee.  But I won't say more than that. After what I feel like has been three months of feeling unfocused (ever since I found out Loose Id was closing), I am finally feeling the creative juices flowing so that I'm having trouble writing fast enough to keep up with the ideas.  The Witness Wore a Puppy Tail is going strong, I have bits ahead done on Claiming, and I am itching to get back to Saddled.  I think my goal in the next month is going to be to finish stuff.  Sometimes I'm in a mood to start projects--other times I finish them.

In other news, I should in the next ten days get my first paycheck for Tap Dancing the Minefields. If that book sold well, I really want to do another one where Tank is at training when the shit hits the fan and he doesn't have time to get word back to base. But the people at base are pretty good at recognizing that smell.  I hope the book financially pays off so I can tackle that project. Otherwise it will be stuck in my head.  So, that's the state of me.  What are you guys up to?

I thoroughly enjoyed Minefields and would LOVE to see a sequel! *crossing fingers*

Seconding the hope for Minefields! Currently I am desperately trying to hire staff at my job (have been trying since Jan) and am looking for a new job. I will never accept a job where I have to hire people again!

Hey Lyn! Whether I get to read more Liam and Ondry story tomorrow or have to wait days or months for the next installment, I don’t care as long as you are still inspired to write about our favorite Xenolinguistic Tech/Palteia and his insightful and oh-so-incredibly logical Chilta. Any time you mention the muse for these guys is still striking a chord with you definitely strikes me as good news for one of my favorite series! (And Patreon exposes me to more of your work, so I can expand my enjoyment beyond the Claimings and Blowback books I’ve bought and enjoyed, so definitely a win all around.)

Checking every day for more Claimings, of course, though I enjoyed the bit of Hercules that you posted. Finally got all my taxes and year end work done, made worse this year because I'm bartering tax work for cover work on Gods and Roses, our first foray into self-publishing. Our artist is really talented, and I can't wait to see what she comes up with for a mostly naked Aztec god. We can't really just go buy a stock photo. you know?

Hi Lyn, I would love to see more of Claimings and more of Aberrant Magic. I joined the Patreon specifically to read the new Claimings book. I really look forward to the whole book being done so I can buy it on Kindle. No interest on Tap Dancing or pony play.

I'm preparing for a re-read of Claimings series (my 4th! :D ) so I can get into the stuff you wrote here. Still not sure if I should get into a WIP or wait for the book to be finished before reading. On one hand - Liam and Ondry! I love them and I want more of them! On the other hand, I'm an instant gratification brat and I'll surely suffer if I read chapter by chapter as they come out. Ugh. #firstworldproblems

Thanks for the update! I'm looking forward to your finished projects (even if I have to save them for later: Apologies for not reading & commenting lately, as (annoying, aggravating, but mostly harmless) vertigo means I can't read much, especially for more than a paragraph or two at a time. Getting notifications of your posts is only bearable with the reminder that I'll get to enjoy many chapters all together when the problem fades again.) What I wouldn't give to be able to wander through your mind! With your permission only, of course.

Oh lord. I do not envy you that job. I did one very unhappy year splitting teaching and administrative duties, and having to manage people drove me endlessly buggy. If I had to hire them, I'd have a permanent headache.

I am still inspired, and even once this last novel is done, I can imagine a number of shorts. There is a lot of material to explore here, and they do have my heart. I'm glad you're enjoying the others stories as well. One of these days, I've got to get in here and organize a bit better because I am all over the place.

I think I will have more Claimings this weekend. And I suspect that any time I'm feeling cranky, another installment of Hercules might show up. It's a therapeutic sort of story.

I have another Aberrant Magic book written, but I"m waiting until I get the rights of the first five back with Loose Id closing, and then I'll have to invest in some editing and I'll self publish. Hopefully Loose Id closing hasn't killed the interest in that series, but I can only do as much as I can do.

Lyn Gala

I'm so glad you're enjoying it. Liam and Ondry will always take up a sizeable chunk of my brain, and I will always be happy to have them live there.

Vertigo is horrible. I got one bout of it with a migraine years ago, and pretty much wanted someone to hit me in the head hard enough to make me pass out. I hope you are feeling better soon.
