With the holiday insanity upon us, I've been a bad writer in promoting my new book. Seriously. I vow that this will be rectified after the New Year. Yes.
In the meantime, PIT6 is monopolizing more of my attention. People have been curious as to the title, and time period premise. I've known both for quite a while, but it's not my habit to mention other writing projects that far ahead of time. Also, it seems like everyone has their own opinion and no matter what, people will find fault with things like titles or ideas.
Anyway.
PIT6 = Partners in Time #6: It's All Relative. I came up with the title before PIT5 was even done, strangely enough. And I was smart enough to write it down so I wouldn't forget about it!
Time Period = California in 1881. Originally I was trying to hit up the 1860s to deal with the Gold Rush, but...it wasn't quite working for other plot requirements I had. (The CA gold rush peaked in the 1850s.)
And the epigraphs, as they are currently:
We all grow up with the weight of history on us. Our ancestors dwell in the attics of our brains as they do in the spiraling chains of knowledge hidden in every cell of our bodies. - Shirley Abbott
Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify the heart. - Washington Irving
If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance. - George Bernard Shaw
(I always like to have a few at the beginning, that deal with various plot threads or shades in the book.)
WIth that said, happy holidays!
