There is a new blog post up at Muse Rising: On Love: Or, Why All of This is Important. Though I have written about how Jenn and I met (right here on LJ!) many, many times here on mermaiden, I have as yet to write it on my blog, and I needed to. So, you may know the story, but I hope you'll indulge my telling it one more time~ :) And, for those who have never read it--here you go~
So, I wrote this book. It’s called The Dark Wife, and six days from today, it’s being released into the world. I’ve worked on it for a very long time, and I love it very much, and I hope the world loves it, too. There’s so much that’s been going on behind the scenes, and so much that needs to continue to happen as we draw, hour by hour, ever closer to Tuesday, May 17th, that most magical of release days. In the coming weeks, I’m going to talk about it, about why I wrote it, and why I think it needed to be written, but–like every good myth–it has its beginnings in something human and real, and that’s where I’d like to start, with the why it’s important to me, its author. I’m an old fashioned romantic. I believe in stolen kisses and flowers and proposing on bended knee, and I believe in true love and happily ever afters and soul mates because I’ve experienced all of those things. I write about love because I know it, deeply, and since I’ve mentioned my wife Jenn several times on this blog, but have not yet elaborated on our story, I thought I would do so, now. This is why I write what I do, this is why I tell the stories I tell–because I have known love too great and beautiful, and through my stories and words, I do my absolute and utter best to express it.
If you enjoyed the post, or were moved to comment, you can do so at the blog. Thank you so much~ <3
