I figured it out...

So the struggle I was having earlier, I figured it out.

Trella wants to tell her own story, not have me tell it for her. I struggled through the beginnings of the first chapter because it was in third person. When I switched to first person, it rolled. Now I just need the folks at work to leave me alone long enough on my days off to actually write for the next two days.  Keep talking to me Trella. Your story is one I want to share!

I hate this part...

So I have what I know is a good idea. I have good characters...characters who are so anxious for me to tell their tale that they've invaded my dreams. I have a plot, a conflict, settings, all the ingredients. What I don't have is the ability to focus. I keep wandering around in the idea but I can't nail it down. I can't get the ideas to settle enough to be happy putting words on the screen.
This is a good story to be told. It's an old concept with new twists. The characters are superb. Why won't my brain focus?

Looking for Beta Readers for Banished Sun

I am looking for some folks willing to read Banished Sun and help me catch the errors and issues I can no longer see after having read and edited this book as many times as I have.

I would like to have readers willing to make notes and send the notes to me so I can look at the problem areas and make the appropriate changes.

If you are interested, email me at sharirichardson@astralplanepublishing.com. The book you receive will be in ePub format, so you'll need to have a program able to read it. iBooks works, Overdrive should work as well. I know Stanza isn't supported anymore, but if you still have it, it will work as well.

Thanks in advance.

I hope you all enjoy the books. Look for a sale on the omnibus(all three books in one) coming up on Thursday. Just think, you could read the Highland Home series while you wait to see The Hunger Games. :-)

One last day of free

Thank you so much to those who downloaded Captured Sun yesterday. I hope you enjoy the book.

Today you can get Seven Days for free on Kindle (remember the kindle app is available for all platforms so you don't need an actual kindle). Seven Days will give readers the chance to get to know Kerry and Xavier better.

If you missed Mourning Sun and Captured Sun, I hope you'll pick them up so you can read the tale from the start.

I'm working on Banished Sun which will take the tale to the next step. Nine Lives should be ready by Christmas as well.

Happy reading!
