While every scrap of paper around me has notes about Victorianism, I've been thinking about other things to write. This is by no means a delay of any of my current projects. It's just a desire to be known for more than one type of writing.
I have so many half composed ideas for high fantasy and sci fi books. Tales of sorceresses leading armies. Surly rangers tracking bandits. Genetically enhanced spies. Cyberpunks plotting in night clubs. I'd love to devote times to these characters and their own stories soon. It honestly won't be for some time, since I'm at home with my Victorian mysteries. I just dread the idea of unfinished stories.
I know a lot of authors are satisfied with staying in their zone, and I have no qualms with that. I just want to write about everything and anything. Whatever fleeting odd thought that comes in my head ends up on paper. Yes, a lot of them get scrapped for being nothing but nonsense. Others get fitted to work into another project. A few of the ideas in the Monster Hunter series are actually carried over from these little odd thoughts. To be honest, I even thought about trying that entire series into another fantasy series, but it got too complicated too fast.
I do have a priority list of other things to write when Black and Redd and the Monster Hunters are either done so I have more time. I wish with all my heart it was possible for me to stay at home and write all day long. I'd be able to get all of this done a lot sooner. Maybe I'll win the lottery soon!
