Working on my next project a Science Fiction series novel.

I am really excited to be on book two of my next release that will be a Science Fiction novel series. I was planning on three books but not sure yet, it might be two. I am not a planner I write and decide where it goes while I write. If you think that's crazy so did Ray Bradbury so my method is in good company.

It's coming along great I love the story and I have a great idea on the book format. I will also be writing the first piece of this novel as a spec script and probably submitting it to competitions or ???

It's been harder to keep focused this week because my comedy script was performed live and I will be getting the video by the end of this week! I can't wait to see it of course and I will be sharing it here and everywhere else I am active on the internet including social media and forums happily.

After being a victim of a significant crime finding my new purpose has been a journey and every instance of almost giving up because I don't have tons of marketing money, ends up with another writing success that pushes me onward. I am glad that since my ads have been down though my stats on Amazon have been plummeting, in individual categories they are staying strong. Hopefully soon I can pay Amazon and get my ads rolling again because when they were, the books were rocking up the charts.

Whatever happens I accept this as my new destiny. It actually started here, writing was my passion from a very very young age but my upbringing was anti-art as a viable career option. I acquiesced but oddly enough I might in the end thank the criminals who with their crime against me got me writing fiction again as my only survival tool.  I sure hope so. Thanks for listening to my rant.

After seeing an ad for a free screenplay contest from Script Pipeline I wrote a thriller script and entered it. I didn't get to the quarter finals but there were 5500 entries! But yesterday I found out Script Pipeline scored my script and that score was put up on CoverFly. CoverFly is the site I submitted my screenplay to Script Pipeline through.

I was amazed that my first script got a high score and high enough to rank it #3 for Thriller TV 1/2 hour for the week, #3 for Thriller TV 1/2 for the month and #4 Thriller TV 1/2 hour for the YEAR!

That news has solidified my path as a writer as I was having my doubts after I couldn't afford to keep up the big money advertising that was increasing my reads and sales exponentially but without it's crickets.  I am on Chapter 8 on my latest science fiction novel and this week will be jumping back in. In just a couple of weeks from now the video of my other script a Comedy TV 1/2 hour will be coming out and I can't wait to see it and share it with everyone.

So just before the precipice seemed too high to climb, great news came in to keep me writing full time. So thanks Script Pipeline and thanks CoverFly, whatever I write next and from this day forward you will get the credit for keeping me motivated to do it.
