Bookcountry and other thoughts.

I have had an account over at Bookcountry.com which is a place for writers to go, a writer community if you will. I had one of my stories up over there for peer review, and I got some awesome feedback!

However with the limits on my time I decided to withdraw that particular story from sight (I didn’t delete it cause the comments and reviews were just wonderful and those folks were so kind in giving me feedback I felt it would be rude to just delete it all) and I am debating closing the account.

Bookcountry seems to be a good concept, and I have heard some very great things about it. I just don’t have the time to spare.

If anyone reading this is one of those folks who gave me such great feedback on the harp story, thank you so much. I may not have agreed with everything suggested but there was some really good input, and I appreciate the time you took to give me your honest and well thought out reviews and suggestions.

I have published a new short story; Playing for the Dead  which was called The Harp at one point…

Available at Amazon (clicking the pic will take you there), Smashwords, Barnes & Noble and Xin Xii (which is a European ebook distributor.
A hundred years after a catastrophe changed the order of things, Lizbae is sent to take her turn to play a magic harp to soothe the restless souls of the departed. To protect her village, and stay alive, Lizbae must find the courage to face the night.

This story has a bit of a story itself, it was inspired by a picture I saw which was done by Linda Bergkvist. I noticed there hasn’t been activity on her deviant art page in a while **weeps** but I would love to find out how to purchase the painting she did, which inspired me to write this story in the first place.

Well I have to get back to work.
Take care readers, be good or at the very least; be safe.
