Never Again, She Said.

September 2020 Update 

My writing soul is focused on poetry which blocks any thoughts for finishing this book.  I am about halfway through the manuscript and do work on the book from time to time.  I will post an update in December.

This summer, I started working on “The Storm” the second novel in the three-part series for Never Again, She Said.  The second phase of the life of Sarah and Ryan feels more grounded in the second book.  I continue to add notes and dialog for Never Again, She Said, in between my poetry writing.

With the craziness of 2020, I have taken a break to finish my second poetry book, Awake at 3:47 AM, which feels more appropriate than finishing the manuscript. The story needs my full attention or at least that is what my brain believes. I also feel the need for uninterrupted time, which seems plausible during a pandemic, instead, I am distracted by hunting for food and toilet paper.

As I work on the novel, I will post additional updates.
