Stick a flag in March. Two days ago, I already hit my 50,000 wordmark for the month. I’m about 8,000 words ahead, which is a pretty nicepadding. Hope I won’t need it. I’m spending the last days of March trying towiden that lead, but also finishing up another edit of the 2ndCanticle Kingdom book so that it can go off to the editor I hired.
It is the last chance to submit to the Christmas Short StoryAnthology. The deadline is March 31st. Check out “current projects”for more info. I have a bunch of great submissions, including an epichistorical piece about Good King Wenceslas, who was apparently much moreinteresting that I had ever considered.
Please be sure to check out my audio series, especially if youliked or would like to read “The Canticle Kingdom”. I think it will make it amuch deeper experience. The second one that I’m narrating is called “PhineasFrakture and the Dolonites” and it shaping up to be an interesting adventurewith great characters.
If you’d like to play a game of“Where’s Waldo” with real people, I’m singing in LDS General Conference thisweekend with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. You can stream it live, or watch thevideos after the fact at http://www.lds.org.Leave a comment if you were able to spot me!

When bringing a project to a close, make sure it is going to makethe reader’s happy. Not all ending have to be rainbows and roses, but make surethat there is something that made the journey worthwhile. Someone, typicallyyour main characters, should have made progress, and at least something aboutthe world should be better or more hopeful than before. You want your reader tofeel at rest at the end of your story at least to some degree.
