This weekend we will be working on Hope for the Future and Book Five of the Sorceress Series. The furthest behind is Sorceress book, but I'm going to work on Hope for the Future instead.
My creative brain is having problems with the Sorceress book. I know it's the final as there are no new ideas that are tumbling through me which would get me to continue it, but at the same time, the ideas I AM having are being goobery in the brain. So ... working on a different book.

- Final update as I am exhausted. 5,724 words today and leaving the book at 57,149. Below is a small draft excerpt for you. Draft means that this is a first draft and it will show this round. I purposely didn't go deep into detail as I will add that in, in the editing stages. This is sometimes the bare that I will do so that I can move on quickly as the ideas pour through my head. I don't always do it, but sometimes I do. I find in editing I actually end up needing to add IN detail, versus take OUT like most authors. Not sure why that is. Just works better for me. A true first draft, which means ... crap, lol.
The gates burst open, breaking from their hinges and clattered to the side, one flew off into the land and a spark erupted before disappearing into nothing. Smoke drifted into the air.The shadow dragons both stepped next to me and raised their massive heads to their full height. A roar began when they inhaled and their chests puffed out, then a moment later the fire began as they slowly exhaled. The fire swept over and along the ground like waves in the ocean, sweeping over the magical barriers and spinning in massive walls, engulfing the castle and taking over the entire land.The dragons flapped their wings and the Phagor screamed as he stepped forward, the sound deafening. Stopping just outside the gate, he turned his head toward me. I nodded.Thunder cracked the sky and lightning struck the earth. The energy fields crackled and snapped.
