These ancient cultures are fascinating. <br />Any idea when these books will be published?

It was overly pedantic, (I essentially included every big word I knew at the time) wordy trash with with a nifty plot. Hopefully the rewrite (Which was a complete re-do - I just used the characters and the plot but rewrote the entire novel) will be beter-received. I have one other that is part way there and another (a cool adventure fantasy) I just started doing research for. It's set in ancient Persia, so I need to brush up on my historical knowledge of the constant friction and warring between the Persians and the Macedonians.<br />I'm also researching how Persian writers write. What conventions are acceptable. How to approach the man and woman thing which is very different than in the west, And, religion. This will be a difficult one as I'd like it to be well-received in the west and in the east. And I don't want to end up living in exile under an assumed name for pissing someone off.<br />Take care, A.

One is in the second draft stage and the other still in the rough. At the same time I am bogged down with social media and trying to prioritize my time better. So many good ideas out there but it all muddles in brain overload. Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02558201370601898422noreply@blogger.com
