Big. BIG. BIIIIIIIIIGGGG Thank You to Books4me! Books4me has left Echo Vol.1’s 39th review on Amazon…and it is FIVE STARS!!! WOOHOO! Thank You Thank You Thank You!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
Here’s the review: “I have enjoyed Mr. Wayne’s WordPress blog and was pleased to purchase longer works written by him. This first one, Approaching Shatter, were many of my favorite sci-fi movies and authors (and my son!) rolled into one novel. I prefer reading stories with a point, ones that share an author’s ideology, and still sweep the reader into a very good yarn. Mt. Wayne does this. I am looking forward to reading the rest of this trilogy. As soon as I relax enough to open my e- reader to the next book!”

Although, it isn’t trilogy. I’d go in and fix it, but am not! :o)

Yeah sorry about that! I’m trying to use the number 4 as something that shows up again and again throughout the story, as it is the fourth yuga or “age” in Hindu mythology that is the dark age, and it also happens to be the signifier of bad luck/death in a lot of Asian cultures. But with the amount of material that I’ve currently written for 4, I may have to split it and make it into 4 and 5. Hopefuly not though—we’ll see how much I can chop it down in the edit

There is a series I fell in love with by Kristen Britian. (think that is her name, I am not good with names…did you discover that!?!) She was going to write a trilogy and ended up with 5. (I think) They were LONG books, too.

Wow! I think something similar happened to me…Echo 2 was supposed to encompass 2 AND 3, but when I start drafting, I let the muse do what it needs to, then strategize off my raw material, cos I don’t wanna be uptight and possibly miss out on producing some gems. Right now Echo 4 is over 200k words (600 pages) but it hasn’t been edited or even finished. I’m hoping in the edit I can shave it down but we’ll see. I really just want to have four volumes but now that I’m working with a publisher that might not be the case…

Good lord, remember when movies used to be gifts? It’s hard nowadays finding gifts that aren’t digital passcodes or downloads. Thankfully, people still prefer real books

There is a STUPID Dish (I think) commercial where the dad can’t get the television hooked up. At the end he yells, “fine, we’ll all read books!” like books are a horrible thing and only to use when nothing else is working and it is a punishment. That commercial makes me so MAD! I want to throw something at the TV every time it airs.

The irony is that tv shows have to be written first!
