"Forged in Blood" ~ Adult Urban Fantasy

New Words: 2,004
Total Words: 27, 769
Deadline/Target: July
Reason for stopping: Had to write a review for my review blog

Sample: I hope there are some libraries here at least, she thought and stood to her feet. If everything seemed possible and loads of crap dumped on her head, she would better get a good book as a consolation prize. Her hair was tied in a large knot behind her head and she was ready to move. She trusted the paved streets to at least get her somewhere. The feel of uneven, but stone like material was her only beacon in the darkness apart from the burning tree leaves around the well and another flickering shine. The light was ivory white and ghastly. It blinked from time to time, giving her some sense of what her surroundings were.

Good things: I am writing again and this time I did twice as much as I usually do.
Bad things: I think that around 90% of what I wrote is written like crap and can be done better, thus more edits later. Ugh.
Real life: I wrote a new review at Temple Library Reviews about “Taste of Night” by Vicki Pettersson, watched a zombie movie and won a copy of “Rogue” from a giveaway. Not a bad day.

I think your stuff is brilliant... and I'm glad to see you're writing again. And thanks for the 'crap' reference, too. Remember, you're only an edit away from 'crap' to 'not-so-crap'!
