A big step has pretty much concluded in the process of getting The Unknowns out there to the world. The past few weeks I have been writing and rewriting the synopsis for the book, in an attempt to get my story across in a concise way. I’ve had to write many things before in my life, but this sort of project is the one that just really is a challenge to me. I don’t do well communicating what I mean without rambling on and on about it. Even with my stories, I tend to think I’m more Jules Verne than say H. G. Wells. Josh Ulrich likes to pick on me saying that its nearly impossible for me to tell a short story because I will create an epic from the material. So, attempting to widdle down a book series into a matter of two pages or so, was the works.<\/p>\n

I managed to get it done though and that marked the culmination of the journey in looking for an agent. I’m happy to say I am partnering up with Brendan Deneen of FinePrint Literary<\/a> to try and take this book to the masses. He’s been extremely supportive of the concept for the book and helpful in aiding me into these uncharted waters (for me anyway). I really appreciate his patience with helping this project be successful.<\/p>\n

So what to do now that we’re kind of on to the next phase? Well, I plan to keep writing. I’m finding that a major part of the overall story may need some reworking. Its more of a change to when and how I give information about the characters than a ultimate change in direction. It’s still pretty major though and could warrant some extensive rewrites. That’s what first drafts are for!<\/p>\n

The next few weeks I expect I’ll spend some time getting some other obligations off my table. I have some websites I am redesigning for myself and businesses (my parent’s restaurant haha). My personal website has not been redesigned in almost three years. That’s too long. This needs a remedy.<\/p>\n

The Unknowns production won’t slow down though really. I’m still working through a ton of material and I even got the idea today for exactly how book 2 could start off. Progress is being made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
