Writing Lapse

It's funny how even the best laid plans can go south in a hurry. Going into this summer I had all these grand plans to write write write all summer (like I did last summer). And what has happened? I haven't even managed to finish Demon Hunter yet, which I've been writing since last Oct. I was hoping to finish Demon three weeks ago and The Dead End Road and Portal to the Gods 2 by the end of the summer. Now here I am knocking on August's door and I haven't written a word in over two weeks.

I suppose you can thank my wife for that. We went to Branson, MO. for vacation and I've spent the last week and a half remodeling the house. My stories remain unwritten, but the house looks great. Still, I was hoping to have Demon Hunter finished nearly 8 months ago. Right now I'm really knocking on the door. Now that the remodeling project is complete, the writing should resume. Throughout the project, I was simply to braindead every night to write so much as a paragraph.

PS..
Right now I'm reading Scott Oden's Men of Bronze from Medallion Press, the publisher that I'm hoping will pick up Demon Hunter: 21 Days. I'm a little over halfway through it. I'll post a review when I'm finished (not that anyone will ever read it!). Come to my blog...tell your friends!
