Tome 1-1 Edit Is Up!

Fri Feb 13, 2009, 3:04 PM
Hey everyone! Though only one of you commented on Deviant Art, I had a few co-workers tell me in person what they thought of The Tome of New Earth: Book 1, Chapter 1. It was well-noted that my original version was somewhat rushed and in need of a good makeover.

Well, without further adieu, the edit is up and ready to be read! It's about a page and a half longer (well, in a word document anyway), it uses a little more description and features an old character that I had originally kicked out of the story: Dr. William Gatey. Though his purpose isn't as great this time around, he made an accidental return and it was an epic moment for me, haha!

I'm not sure when Chapter 2 will be finished. I've written the first draft all the way to the end of Chapter 3, but I have just as much editing to do to them as I did to this one, if not more. Plus, I promised myself I would finish recording two songs by the end of the week (tomorrow), and I've got a long way to go...

Did I mention I'm a musician too? [link] That under-construction-website will link you to all the other sites that are actually worth viewing (i.e., myspace, facebook, youtube, etc...). There you can hear the music that I made all by myself, :: pat on the back :: .

Anyway, the weekend is here and I don't have any plans! Looks like an artsy weekend for me! TGIF everyone!

My name is Bryce and I am a sci-fi/fantasy writer who is looking for some readers who can ACTUALLY critique my works! I've been a strong writer since I can remember, but I never put any serious thought into writing books until just a few years ago. Usually, when people read my stories, they tell me "it was good," or "I really liked it," but that doesn't do me any good whatsoever! What PART did you like? WHY did you like it? Did it make you think? Did you cry? Please, give me all you've got and I'll return the favor!

My main focus for the last several years has been my first novel (and trilogy), "The Flaming Eye." It's a story about a young man whose dreams become so real that he forgets the difference between sleep and wake. He finds himself in a world similar to Medieval England, and is dragged into an epic adventure to save the world. Is it all just a dream?

"The Tome of New Earth" is a series of short stories that tell the history leading up to "The Flaming Eye," and that is what I will be posting here. I don't know how often I will be uploading parts of the story, but I hope you all will enjoy them when they're done!
