So, I have been in vacation mode but I do have a contract so I'm back. Apart from redecorating, driving my safer Sienna and seeing How to Train Your Dragon it was very relaxing.
I like to blog about the happenings at Cobalt but I haven't been spending to much time at the office but a local owned Salads, Salads and Salads has opened up next to the McDonalds !
House of Fierro
So, after that little teaser soooo long ago I do have the sequel to Litany Lane posted. I'm only a few chapters in but I figured some reader input might help the tiny writer's block
This story is a little different in that (like I mentioned) it does move through time, but I have decided to help out by labeling when the story takes place.
There is another different technique that I will be using that is mostly found in mystery/crime novels. Parts of the story will be written in 3rd person. Just so it doesn't throw you off.
At the moment there are not as many pictures as last time, but that may change as we go along
I guess this is a little like an experiment
Refresher
If you would like a slight refresher I would suggest skimming chapter 11
Once again this does take place in 2007 in Western New York.
Playlist
+1+ - Opus 28 - Dustin O'Halloran
+2+ - Into The Storm - Yiruma (I'd play this a few times, I love him !)
I have a shiny newdiverse playlist that should help tell the story. I may hae stolen a few from Shawna though !
Prologue & Chapter 1
It's good to see you posting again ! We all need some vacation though. This was so wonderful I can't wait for more.
ReplyDeleteWho else at Cobalt is getting 4 week vacations ? I do like the steak-fajita western cobb-taco salad at salads cubed.
ReplyDeleteThere should be a warning on the prolouge it freaked me out, I love it !
ReplyDeleteHe is locking her up ? WTF ? Mr. Fierro better have a damn good reason (excuse language)
ReplyDeleteYeah ! I've been missing reading some Lile and listening to your beautiful music choices. I squeed when I saw this ! I'll do the obligatory it's to short !!
ReplyDeleteI feel like you are the queen of descriptions, I can see everything so clearly.
ReplyDeleteWait, is chapter 1 in December as well ? Does it rain in New York during December ?
ReplyDeleteThe 1,2,3,4 reminds me of that song by a fine frenzy ! I am on the edge of my seat well, screen.
ReplyDeleteShe should just break the window with the chair to get out. I can't believe Mr. F has turned into such a jerk.
ReplyDeleteHow do we know the woman he took was Clara Delune ? Clara has brown hair so maybe Mr. F took her sister or her mom or something.
ReplyDeleteIs there a story behind the drivers last name. Is it pronounced like cyanide like the poision ?
ReplyDeleteI really like reading your 3rd person writing I would love to see something in all 3rd person.
ReplyDeleteI was just happy to see Emile, I just want to know more about him, it's been killing me. Like what is his last name ???
ReplyDeleteIt's so strange I can't put my finger on it but, Mr. F's narritave "voice" is so different from Clara. It seems totally uniuqe to him, I can't believe the same person is writing it. Will this be all Mr. F's POV ?
ReplyDeleteWhat does this line mean :
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was a strange instance of compassion or the thought of a woman who would no doubt stop , that I released the window.
Is someone following him or is he referring to like the police or something ?
Hmm . . . I thought all the MILFs were driving Ford Focuses this year ?
ReplyDeleteMr. F is a little cold in this chapter. I don't know whats worse taking Clara or just leaving a kid out there. I would atleast call the police.
ReplyDeleteMr. Fierro is totally buying into the Albino stereotype. Although I wonder how does he have so much money ?
ReplyDeleteI love how Mr. Fierro says the Poinsettas are wilted and past their season. It's like he goes around judging other flowers (plants ?)
ReplyDeleteIn your head what kind of phone does Emile have ? In my head it was an iPhone but, then Mr. F called it small.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing your daughter won't be one of the ids in my class telling me about how they saw Hot Tube Time Machine ?
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed your vacation, hope youre doing well.
I love Mr. Fierro's reaciont "Dear, God are you mad ?" it's so film noir.
ReplyDeleteIf I were Emile I would bolt out of there before he took me too. You'd think Mr. F would have softened up some but, he is still pretty cold
ReplyDeleteI like the whole 'suppose' conversation. It kind of reminded me of that song in Singing in the Rain. It's good that Emile and Mr. F are still friends
ReplyDeleteFurther more, how do you get a vacation ? What do you even do ? Neopet-ism much ?
ReplyDelete^^
ReplyDeleteI think you mean nepotism, you idiot.
Will anything about Emile's partner show up ? Mr. F seemed to like children because he was nice to Kayla. Maybe it is because she was a girl.
ReplyDeleteOkay Joel, your just jealous because my girlfriend is younger than your wife.

ReplyDelete@ Shawna - Thanks, honey
@ Erik - Tell me that is not one salad
@ June - I thought I wasn't scary enough. . . lol !
@ July - (:
@ Sienna - I expected this
@ Sam_l 0- I think the picture helped
@ Rei - Yes, it's December as well. Well, I've lived in California for (oh dear) 8 years.
@ Trinity - Tell me it's not Fever.
@ Hannah - There are bars on the windows
@ Heidi - Clara has black hair
@ Alexa - (Suzanne)Ciani and (Paul) Cardall are pianist. I've used Cardall. Ciani is always on Pandora.
@ Princess A - There is a little more.
@ emilielover- I honselty don't know his last name or first name. He will most likely stay Emile forever.
@ Violeta - I'm not telling
@ Boston_girl - It's a little akward but he is talking about Clara who likes kids.
@ NyBarista - ^once again he doesn't like kids.
@ Sunset - I hope Dennis Hurley doesn't come after me. it's mentioned in August but he has a lot of money because he sold bonds from WWI & II and he sells (non-blended) rose oil (a primary ingredient in expensive perfume) which is about 500 dollars for 50ml. Hmm, this turned into a mini blog.
@ Ashlyn - Well, originally I didn't have the "time codes" and that was to display that it is late December. There is also another reason
@ Blondie - It's an Iphone but remember he is still in the 1950's mind set
@ Wilson - Well, I didn't go with her. (GrandmaFail)
@ Daisy - That was Emile's reaction
@ Hpgirl - you have no idea
@ sugarcookie - Yes, I love that part too.
^^
ReplyDelete@ Erik -- What are you talking about ? I'm pretty sure Lile's ghostwriter is 26.
ReplyDelete@ Erik - futhermore, what do you do ?
@ Joel - Stop being mean
@ Appletini - Yes, that is true
@ Joel, Shawna and Erik - It's fine. I'm very happy being 29.
I kind of have a funny story. I made a name bank for IVB at the very beginning when I first wrote Darcy's excerpt. I opened up again when I started Veritas and one of the names I had listed was Addison. It is weird because until I opened the folder a few weeks ago I had no recollection of ever hearing that name.
ReplyDeleteI am so mad I did not get the naming thing, I knew something was up but, I thought I was paranoid !
ReplyDelete^ Shawna
ReplyDeleteWas it a male or female name ? Because the original name I had (which became his middle name) was Micajah.
I hoped it wasn't too Private Practice-y
ReplyDelete@ Tabby - It's okay I was being lazy
*off to make name bank*
It was a boys name, probably Elias's. I have a name bank but I usually still end up making new names.
