๐ Nautical Fantasies & Rest | Author Diary โ September 12, 2024 ๐๐
Working on โHuntersโ:
This week, I spent some time writing โHunters,โ a nautical fantasy. Exploring new genres and themes is always an exciting part of the creative process, though Iโm still gauging whether this particular story will be part of my ongoing projects.
Preparing for Pompeii and Rome:
As I prepare to embark on a cruise to see the historical sites of Pompeii and Rome, Iโve been taking it easy and getting ready for the trip. This journey isnโt just a vacation; itโs also a source of inspiration, feeding into the backdrop of stories.
Reading Insights:
I finished reading โPompeiiโ by Mary Beard, which provided a deep dive into the ancient cityโs history. Knowing that much of Pompeiiโs art is in Naples, Iโm curious to see what still remains at the site itself. Additionally, I started โHip-Hop is Historyโ by Questlove, exploring 50 years of hip-hop culture and history.
Note on Next Weekโs Diary:
Please note that next weekโs author diary will be posted later than usual as Iโll be away, soaking in new experiences and historical marvels that I hope to share upon my return.
Iโd love to hear your thoughts on exploring new sub-genres or your experiences with historical trips that have influenced your creative projects.
Donโt forget to like, share, and subscribe for more updates from my authorโs life and the inspiration that fuels it!
