WIP Announcement and Solitude Update

All---

Great news on two fronts. First, I wanted to let you know that I have figured out the best way to reboot the Solitude twitter-fiction. Except an announcement of the new prologue start date before next Monday.

Second, last night I hit about 6K works of rough work on a suspense novel I've started very recently. At that point (one or two chapters in) I decided to give it over to Rose for feedback. It's less than a first draft, more a proof of concept. The concept, apparently, works! That means I'm now officially 6,000/~120,000 into my solo WIP. Tomorrow I will talk a little more about the project and firm up the word count goal. Tonight I plan on doing my chapter run outline and that'll give me a better feel for that.

It's going to be a fun one to write, and I'm looking forward to talking more about it soon.

In the mean time, in case you never saw it, or forgot about it, here's the original trailer for Solitude:




.Nevets.
