Chapter 12 of Vaironian Tides is up! Some bits and pieces:
“Don’t you think you should be candid with me?” Tolrek asked. “You’ve brought me into a situation where someone seriously dislikes me. I have enough concerns on Vaironia. Just because I’m not always vocal when something bothers me doesn’t mean I’m unaffected. It’s difficult enough being classified as your Pet, Darion. Now answer the damn question. Who was the ‘top’?”
Chapter 11 of Vaironian Tides is up! Some bits and pieces:
The rebel suspected that there was an intimate bond between Darion and Jarrick. The two were standing close together as they conversed; the chemistry between them caused Tolrek to feel as if he were a great distance from them. Jarrick also seemed to be unwilling to mask his reaction to Tolrek. The rebel was getting the distinct impression that the Tildari was not particularly pleased to see him. Whenever Jarrick did bother to glance in Tolrek’s direction, there was an unmistakable coldness in his eyes.
Chapters 1 and 2 of Vaironian Tides have been posted. The scene is set for intense rounds of negotiation between Darion Navarr and Tolrek Marou. Who has the most leverage?
Vaironian Tides has been an interesting challenge for me to write. I haven’t quite figured out all the reasons why. Perhaps the struggle has been because I’ve switched back and forth between stories. Also, there are some details I’d like to add which will round out the relationship for Tolrek and Darion. I’m still searching for the perfect elements to wrap up their journey. I’m also considering changing the name of the story to Time and Tide. Hmmm….
I’ve completed 25 chapters and this story will, likely, end after a few more chapters. There’s the potential for continuing Darion and Tolrek’s adventures in another novel. Tolrek’s background presents some great opportunities for exploration.
