I finished the manuscript for a novel today...months in the making...a novel about time and space and romance...about gypsies, and grail's and angels...about injustice, and justified retribution...about love and magic and difference, and...about grace, and redemption. There are issues in everyone's life...issues that made them what they are...that bring them to where they are...in life. We are what we see and dream,,,what we experience first hand. We are what we are, and what was done to us. We are fully a mystery, as deep as any well, and as strange as any revealed truth. In my life are things, I cannot begin to reveal as 'true'. thus...I would prefer to initiate my reader's into the 'possibilities' we all are, and we know we are...from the tree of our ancestry, to the genome of our DNA sequences. We are unique...we are strange. 'Peculiar' would not be too fine a point, to put on what we are. Really, no one knows us, but ourselves.
This is my first novel. I hope you will read it, when it is published. I am currently seeking a publisher, probably in the science fantasy or supernatural fantasy genre's. See if you can deduce my experience, through the character's in my novel. We are what we eat...we are what we write...is this not so? 'There is more to the telling, than meets the eye'...it is said. If one can ever believe, in anything...perhaps, start with...'nothing but the truth'. No telling what you may turn over. Happy hunting.
The working title for the manuscript is 'The Latins'. It is currently fixed at 50,000 words. I will attempt to condense the basic idea of my tale into a short synopsis, or outline, and publish this either at my blog for poetry, or on Google plus, for your enjoyment. I will not publish on Amazon, nor self publish, in an anthology. I am not really that greatly interested in publishing 'a selfie'.
'The Latins', does not refer to a general race of people, but rather, to an ancient family...bearing that name.
Any resemblance to people, living...is strictly coincidental.
