Hi all,
few weeks ago commenting on an entry the many options that were buzzing in my head. After much thought, and seeing that I have little to end the novel I have in my hands, I've made a decision on the historical novel that will follow.
with great regret on my part I will leave for a time in the history of the eastern Roman empire, leaving the stories I have in my head on Byzantium in return for a dip in the eighteenth century English. In the election have played a number of factors but, if I must be honest, the one that has been heavy Constantinople. Literary journey took her six years streets and, at this point, I need to distance myself a bit of the second Rome. Although not a goodbye, just au revoir, then no doubt over value again later on the shores of Marmara with imagination and a good story.
I have not yet traced the history of my new novel, only a few characters and a vague idea in mind. I also have to start from scratch with the documentation, ie, events, clothing, boats, weapons, construction ... And, as you can tell from these few words, the novel is set in one of the periods in which war was plunged our beloved country. I do not know how I will carry First look at the history of that time, but I guess I can not sit on the keyboard to write before, at least one year, so that this interlude I have thought to use the time by three works of non-historical themes.
I know it's an extremely ambitious goal, but I think with a little planning is acceptable. This year I had a professional certification and two annual courses I have played down UNED long time, so eliminating these two factors I think I'll be able to get more juice in my spare time.
In principle, in summer I have thought about starting the first of the works, which consist of a novel transformation elaborated script mock assault on a bank 'with surprise'. Why this novel? Because virtually every scene I have sketched and, with minor changes could be easily marketable in the international market, which leads me to the need to find a good agent when finished, but hey, better to go step by step. Once
(Christmas, God willing) the next will be the development of the story I wrote for the contest Hislibris, but left the door open to other possibilities, as I have found that such long-term planning are often be too feasible.
And the third will be to my nephews, the that long ago I promised to write a story in which they were the protagonists. Since it is not a novel to publish the will from time to time in the free holes. Now I have the plot more or less raised on the head, so hopefully not too complicated, just have to find the holes to get to the computer (which is enough)
Anyway, those are my expectations, not mean that tomorrow there is something that pour down my plans. But in principle, how well things are going my next historical novel would not see the light before ... 2014! Better not think I get depressed ... Greetings
