Love the title of upcoming collection Winston, The Weight of the World. Titles are sometimes hard for me to come up with. Good one!

And thanks for the info and the good reminders on the creative process.

Thanks, Victor!! Titles are tough, especially for a short collection of mostly unrelated topics. Luckily the poem it’s based on was one of the more higher rated ones on here which helped me choose.

Glad you liked the info!

Great stuff to look forward to, especially the story collection. I can totally relate to falling in and out of love with a project (I'm in a creative slump and trying to muster excitement about Book 2 so I can revise ;-) Congrats on the new house and best of luck with your move!

Thanks, Jacquie. It'll be an interesting few months for sure. I'm excited though.

I hope you find the excitement needed for book 2!! What's the second one called?

You should definitely be excited! You have a lot of big accomplishments under your belt :-)

And thanks! The second one is "The Gifts of Heaven" and because the trilogy is basically one long narrative, it's the center of the longer story. So, I'm suddenly worried about having a boring, saggy middle. I want to punch up some bits before I post ;-)

Love that title. If I can catch up on the first book, I'd be happy to help in any way I can!

Great stuff, Winston! Good luck with the house and getting settled. Been there, done that, and I understand the stress.
