I've been editing or doing worldwork for almost a month now, and I had forgotten how good the actual writing side of things really feels. I dashed out a flash fiction story on Friday night, and am now working on a leisurely character piece set in an old novel world ... and the act of spinning it on the page, the slow build of backstory, description, emotion and the loose-leaf plot - sheer joy.
This makes me more determined to start writing on another novel ...
About Me
- Lindsey Duncan
- I'm a professional harp performer, chef / pastry chef, and speculative fiction writer from Cincinnati, Ohio. My contemporary fantasy novel Flow is available from Double Dragon Publishing, and my science fiction novel Scylla and Charybdis is now out from Grimbold Books. I've also sold a number of short stories and a few pieces of speculative poetry. I write predominantly fantasy, usually epic and/or humorous, with some soft science fiction. I play the traditional lever harp with a specialty in Celtic music - but I also perform modern and Renaissance tunes. And yes, you read that right - I have a diploma in Baking and Pastry and an Associates in Culinary Arts and am currently working in the catering field at Kate's Catering and Personal Chef Services (Dayton, KY). I am a CPC (Certified Pastry Culinarian) and CSW (Certified Specialist of Wine).

Glad to hear you're writing, Lindsey. It can be hard to take a break and then pick back up again, huh? Keep at it!
I've been editing and doing groundwork, so I wasn't expecting it to feel different - but it did.
I'm on it! ;-)
