I did it! NaNoWriMo Winner!

I am so excited to have achieved this goal.  Those waiting for The Bloodmines will be happy to know that the novel I was working on for it was Bloodmines.  50k words in a month is a lot of words but what I discovered is that I can easily write about 5K words a day if Chemo is not pulling to hard on me.   Now that I know this, I can structure my writing for more.  I have been getting messages like, "write faster" and "scanning for the next book often."   It makes me even more motivated to get this book out.  It is not coming as fast as I would like this time.

Someone Needs to Tell These Tales.

“Someone needs to tell those tales. When the battles are fought and won and lost, when the pirates find their treasures and the dragons eat their foes for breakfast with a nice cup of Lapsang souchong, someone needs to tell their bits of overlapping narrative. There's magic in that. It's in the listener, and for each and every ear it will be different, and it will affect them in ways they can never predict. From the mundane to the profound. You may tell a tale that takes up residence in someone's soul, becomes their blood and self and purpose. That tale will move them and drive them and who knows what they might do because of it, because of your words. That is your role, your gift. Your sister may be able to see the future, but you yourself can shape it, boy. Do not forget that... there are many kinds of magic, after all.”

The Stars Will Fall

The stars will fall

The stars will Fall..

I dont know how this all will end

but when it does we will not mend

We will be broken and scattered

All we love will be shattered

I believe that it will come soon

Over the horizon like the moon

The dream is over and destroyed

All of us have been toyed

We have fought and we believed

We forgot about human greed

The symbol of freedom fell from the sky

Never again will it fly.

Blood we shed was for naught

For freedoms love cannot be taught

Our doom will come from within

Not from nations of other men

Every right stripped away

To keep us safe or so they say

Our own decisions not enough

Life it is way to rough

They know best so we should listen

There silver tounges oh how they glisten

Money rules not the flag

As they turn it into a rag

This nation is dead deep inside

All that is left is to hide

They will come so you can't fight

They believe its not your right

I will not trust in their greed

I have a family I must feed.

When its time and the stars fall

I will fight for us all.
