Akasha II has passed the 15K word count. Denise Parker continues to have the nightmare that is scarier than the one she had before the George Moffatt party that ended so disastrously. She and Sam are no closer than they were when they first met. Both have been promoted to responsible jobs, she at Walker, Scott and Newcomb, he at the Chela House. New threats emerge that will test the resolve of everyone involved in The Light of the World religious organization.
I'll use this platform to review books I've read (and movies I've seen and are still worth watching), advertise my published books, say a few words about writing and reveal something of my world.

Greasing it on is finished. It's now available in ebook and paperback at Amazon.com. I'll probably have more to say about the book after my copy arrives.
In the meantime, a friend bought and read Akasha. She enjoyed the book and the cliff-hanger ending made her want more, so her enthusiasm reverberated and I'm now re-reading the book to get some links to Akasha II. It looks like the time period might be five years later, but that is an open thought at this point. More as the idea takes shape.

Finished the first draft of Greasing it on. All the usual post-writing activity will take up some time before the book is ready to publish.

Greasing it on nudged 50K today. The hero has been hurt, but not seriously. Will it affect his flying lessons? That remains to be seen. Now that he has four women in his life, will he evaluate which of the four might make a good partner to relieve him of the dating game? Lots of questions to be answered in the next 10K.

Greasing it on snuggled up to 40K today. With that milestone 2/3 of the the first draft is finished. The last third will resolve the plot and bring in the P-51 airplane as a culmination of the other airplanes that Larry Dean has experienced during the 40K romp.

Another productive week. Greasing it on is now past 30K. More adventures and new friends. Reflections on his solo flight and almost disastrous cross-country give Larry Dean much to think and talk about.

Well on the way with Greasing it on. Passed 21K today with a new historical aerial adventure for Larry Dean as well as meeting a lawyer at a present-day McDonald's. As the story progresses, he wakes up to another day of vacation. Larry decides to take a cross-country flight. What will happen at the other airports is yet to be written, but I'm sure there will be interesting people and things to see.
