From Wikipedia: “In Greek legend the asphodel is one of the most famous of the plants connected with the dead and the underworld.”

I’ve begun part two of The Last Archer’s Return along with a more concerted effort to revise and improve part one.

That’s it.  Nothing too exciting, but progress is still progress.

I’m hopeful that I’m past the worst of the writer’s block now.

I’m also hopeful that I didn’t jinx things by being hopeful about having surmounted that bout of writer’s block. *sigh*

I hadn’t intended to wait this long to continue working on The Last Archer’s Return, but–as is often the case–life sometimes gets in the way, and my muse (that naughty minx) can be frustratingly elusive at times.

But, for reasons I don’t entirely understand, I was suddenly struck with an idea for one of the book’s characters on my drive home from work today.  And this idea seemed to have a domino effect of sorts, triggering other ideas that started to bring a cohesiveness to the story that had been previously lacking.  Hopefully I can keep this momentum going a little longer to start writing part two of the book (which I’d hoped to have finished at the end of July–oops).

Wish me luck–I’ll need all I can get.
