So I put down Outlander in favor of Merry Gentry #2, A Caress of Twilight which I finished last night. It seemed shorter than the first book (maybe because it was a hardcover or maybe because I read it every spare moment -- *shrugs*). I liked it but it leaves me with questions, of course, so I'm sure I'll have to zip over to the public library today on my lunch break (good thing it's right next door!) and check out the 3rd in the series. I accidently placed a library hold on the 4th (and newest) book so it's waiting for me. I have 7 days before the library will send it to someone else. Can I finish the 3rd book in 7 days? I wonder.....
In writing news, I did an "outline" for my 'Southern girl returns to the farm' piece last night. It seems short to me (only 20 chapters) but that may change as I continue writing. I have most of the main character's scenes/chapters written, and I'm really looking forward to writing the other characters. My outlining did bring up a question: can I switch narrators? What I mean is, can I write the main character from a third-person perspective and the other 2 from first-person? I wonder.....

ReplyDeleteCongrats on reaching a goal!
ReplyDeleteAs for reading the book in 7 days? Oh yeah..you can..if you like it well enough. Check out how many books I read in 3 weeks..If I can do that..you can read another round of Merry easily.
I just finished Awaken Me Darkly by Gena Showalter in 2 days....If I didn't have to go to bed, it would have been in 1 *grin*.
I'm a baaaaad girl.
I tried that in Rink Rats, remember? My crit groups says no way. First person has to be from one person in the book. I could write a second POV in third person though. Interesting and perplexing.
