Saga of a Romantic Saga: May 2015
http://catdubie.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Saga of a Romantic Saga. A continuing saga of one writer's quest to reach an audience. Saturday, May 30, 2015. I thought it meant a male pig. I have a character in Fortune who is a veteran of the Crimean War, or the Russian War as it was called in those days. He isn't an old vet, for the story takes place in 1868, twelve years after the Peace was signed. He's a young vet of about 36 who plays an important role in the book, and whose life was forever changed by the War. Posted by Cat Dubie @ 10:38 PM.

Saga of a Romantic Saga: February 2015

Saga of a Romantic Saga. A continuing saga of one writer's quest to reach an audience. Tuesday, February 17, 2015. I'm working on the final edit of book 1 of the FORTUNE saga. I had originally conceived a trilogy, had my titles picked out, rough synopses and timelines. I knew how this story that started in book 1 would end. The drama, the tears, the adventure, the danger, the steamy sex comprise the meat between the beginning and the end. I've been able to take out words, sentences, entire paragraphs tha...

Saga of a Romantic Saga. A continuing saga of one writer's quest to reach an audience. Saturday, March 28, 2015. As part of this editing process, I opened a spreadsheet and designed it to keep track of the chapters, the length, and the characters who are in that chapter. I discovered some very long chapters, so I broke them down, recalling an agent had once commented that short chapters were more reader friendly than long ones. More discoveries to come, I'm sure.

Saga of a Romantic Saga: April 2015
http://catdubie.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Saga of a Romantic Saga. A continuing saga of one writer's quest to reach an audience. Monday, April 20, 2015. I read that a university is seeking female spiders for some type of study. I must emphasize that I did not read the article so have no idea what, where, or why. But on such slight information the wheels of whimsy begin to spin. Thought I, shouldn't the shortage be of male spiders? Don't female arachnids kill, then like cannibals eat their mates after the ultimate rapture? Not yet, anyway. I came...
