Thanks. I wasn't sure about attributing the author and book, completely made up as they are.

I cleaned up chapter 1 to post on a site where I do some critiquing for others. Everytime I look at it, there seems to be new nits to fix.
I also had to bang out a description which I didn't spend much time on since it was getting late. However, it was kind of fun to make one up.
A Crafter working for the Imperial Guard, Aimee Fallon was only expected to operate a Flyer to transport soldiers to deal with a demon spotting. She thought she would skirt around her orders to test her new invention against a real demon.
Her decision sets off a chain of events that makes her a fugitive wanted by Church and State. Aimee must follow her mentor out of the saftey of the Barrier-protected Empire, and into the Wild, a realm populated by demons and the savage, tattooed Fari warriors. Along the way, she discovers she may be the only person who can defeat the power of the Dead Mountain and save humanity from extinction.
Tonight I need to get back to basic cutting once again.

safety is "ety" Although my spelling chops aren't what they used to be.

Oops, well, I did bang it out pretty fast.

That's what she said.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay, Amy!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hooray, Amy!
In unblocking news--I finally got the key to how to structure my new play, after futzing around with it for months. Not only that, but I discovered a site online called Scripped, which has formatting software and I am off the the freaking races.
It's been 8 years since I wrote a complete play (spent two years on a play which ended up going nowhere), and three years since I wrote a screenplay. It's been a LONG drought.
