Cursed Memory: Part 1 by River Ash

 

It's Day Six of the Write Here, Write Now LoveFest, and we've got River Ash and her Urban Fantasy Cursed Memory.

Cursed Memory: Part 1 by River Ash

Cursed to die. Fighting to survive. Forced to relive the same agonizing fate for all eternity…

I remember the club. The pounding of the beat pulsing in my veins, the way my body moved with the music.

Then — nothing.

My memories are locked away in the dark corners of my mind, replaced by an insatiable hunger nothing can fill.

Until I found him.

I felt his presence before I saw him. My blood calls for this mysterious man whose darkness matches my own. Being near him sets my body on

fire, making me ache for every touch… every taste.

It’s as if my soul recognizes him, loosening my trapped memories. Each time a new one breaks free, I wonder if he holds the key to what I’ve lost,

what I can’t remember. But everything comes with a price. I’m beginning to fear the cost of remembering all that I’ve done might be more than I can bear. What if the monster of this story… is me?

Twilight of the Witch Queen (and other fantasy treats)

 

To build up excitement for the forthcoming Hexes and Heiresses Collection (coming summer 2023), some of the collection participants have written short stories connected to the world in their main collection story.

I have written one myself, called the Setting of the Sun, which features a young Princess Celestia, whose death in the main story is the catalyst for my forthcoming novella The Dark Side of the Moon.

A-Z Challenge/ CampNaNoWriMo Theme Reveal

Based on results on a poll, the story I've decided to tell for CampNaNo/ A-Z Challenge is the third draft of Choosing Sides - renamed Triquetra: Book One. 

Some of you might be familiar with my urban-fantasy about oppressed witches, as I wrote it during last year's NaNo, too. Since completing the second draft (I actually came up with the idea, and wrote the first draft in 2012) I've decided it's STILL not quite the story I want to tell. 

Hopefully this serialised version will be closer to the vision in my head. As this project is only projected to be 54,000 words, it will serve as "book one" of the Triquetra series, and I plan on developing the rest of story ideas into at least two more books. 


 ---- 

“Should those with the witch gene be prevented from procreating?” 

This is the question asked by agents of the Paranormal Investigation Department (PID) in the latest government summit about those with magical abilities. 

 Being a witch in the current political climate is tough. Since a terrorist attack twenty-years ago, the PID have been cracking down on witches, imprisoning many with magical abilities without trial. 

 Those the PID don’t catch go into hiding – if they’re lucky. If they’re not, they’re caught by religious fanatics and publicly hung.

NaNoWriMo 2018 and Writing Update

Due to various reasons, I haven't done much in the way of writing the last few months. 

I did add a bit more to Choosing Sides, and I now have about 12, 000 words/ eight chapters left until completion.

Additionally, I decided to serialize it on Wattpad. You can check it out here: ​www.wattpad.com/633473780-choosing-sides-author%27s-notes

Kyra and I resumed work on our co-novel, and decided to make some changes. 

The story we wrote in part last year, is now going to be book two in a series focused on a UK wrestling company. Book one will introduce the male lead for book two, but also follow two best friends, who're debuting in the company. 

It's a story Kyra and I have drafted a couple of times over the years, and we now feel it's the right time to really work on it and get it out there. 

It was going well, but we've had to put it on hiatus for a few weeks, so Kyra can work on her solo novel, Say What You Feel (Chaos and Consent #2), as she's on a tight deadline for it, because of it being due for release on November 6. 

Once her book is out, and she's had a break, we'll get back to it.

I spoke about re-writing my 2012 novel, Cupid, and I did start work on that, getting about 5k down, before illness hit. Then I lost my motivation to write ... until NaNoWriMo was approaching.

I've been conflicted on what to write in November, as I recently had an excellent idea for a young-adult, high fantasy book/ possible series. 

But, after much deliberation, I feel Cupid is the best choice to go with. It's more developed that the high fantasy, which I'm still working out the details of, and with less fantasy world-building needed. 

I think both could be excellent stories, but the high-fantasy probably isn't the right thing to write during NaNoWriMo, and I need to give myself more time to iron out the plot, and nail down all the world building aspects.

So I will be sticking with Cupid, and after re-reading the 5000 words I wrote in September, I'm certain it's the right choice. Damn it, I love that story, even if I do say so myself and what I've written so far is excellent. I'm so excited to work on it again once NaNoWriMo starts. 

If you're interested in following my NaNWriMo progress, or learning more about Cupid, please check out my profile here.

That's it in the way of writing updates, but if you want a more personal update, please check out my recent blog post over on my website. http://www.claredugmore.com/blog/october-update

Until next time. T.T.F.N ...
