Soul Mates 5 - Questions?
For those of you who have read the Soul Mates series....
I've just finished up work for the day... which included making outline notes on Soul Mates 5. It's not my main focus at the moment, but I will work on it occasionally when my contemporary gives me fits. Right now, I'm staring at the SM5 outline (mostly things-that-need-to happen notes and not a true outline, lol) and thinking that something is missing.
That I've forgotten something important that's *supposed* to be there in this next book. Which leads me to questions, of course!
* What do YOU want to see happen in the next book?
* Is there something that you want to see wrapped up?
* Something that MUST be wrapped up because not knowing is driving you crazy?
* Characters that have fallen off the map, but still have story you expected to see
* Anything else?
Now remember, I'm NOT taking a poll for what to include in the next book. I'm just kind of hoping that something in the comments will help jog my memory for that "missing thing" I can't seem to pinpoint.
Want to humor me??
**Warning: If you haven't read the series, then you probably don't want to hang out and read the comments!**

Update -- January 4th, 2009
X-Posted from my Yahoo Group.

I have been remiss in keeping up with my own group. For that, I do apologize. Last year was a rough one and I spent much time just feeling like hammered shit. Anyway...
New Year, new outlook... And hopefully, more time to both write and chat. I promise, I'll do my very best to keep up.
Word of warning, though? I'm STILL behind on email from September/October, so sending things through the group is probably the best -- and quickest -- way to get a response from me from now on :)
Unless you catch me on LiveJournal. Most of my entries are friends-locked to keep the trolls away, but anyone is more than welcome to set up a free account and friend me to see those entries.

I'd really love to get some conversation going in the group (hell, anywhere!) again. Read any great books lately? Found an author that you've made an auto-buy?
Tell us about it!
My to-be-read pile (both ebook and print) is just falling all over the place, but I'm still buying books and looking for new authors. For me, it really is an obsession :)
And remember, it doesn't just have to be m/m books, either!

I know many of you will be just ecstatic over this -- and some of you might still be pissed off at me that it isn't finished yet -- but I'm currently working on Target.
The progress is going well and I am LOVING the way Richard and Ryan are meeting and coming together in the rewrite. I had once thought that taking it and rewriting it so much would be a mistake, but honestly, y'all? I love it.
And I usually hate everything I write when I go back to read over it, lol.
Richard's a blast to write and I can't wait until the kids get back in school this week to get back to work on the book. I'm not going to give a time-frame for finishing OR publishing because when I do, things just seem to go wrong to spite me.
I will say, however, that I'll do my best to have it done in the next couple of months.
