🌊 Nautical Fantasies & Rest | Author Diary – September 12, 2024 📚🚀

Working on “Hunters”:

This week, I spent some time writing “Hunters,” a nautical fantasy. Exploring new genres and themes is always an exciting part of the creative process, though I’m 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, I’ve been taking it easy and getting ready for the trip. This journey isn’t just a vacation; it’s also a source of inspiration, feeding into the backdrop of stories.

Reading Insights:

I finished reading “Pompeii” by Mary Beard, which provided a deep dive into the ancient city’s history. Knowing that much of Pompeii’s art is in Naples, I’m curious to see what still remains at the site itself. Additionally, I started “Hip-Hop is History” by Questlove, exploring 50 years of hip-hop culture and history.

Note on Next Week’s Diary:

Please note that next week’s author diary will be posted later than usual as I’ll be away, soaking in new experiences and historical marvels that I hope to share upon my return.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on exploring new sub-genres or your experiences with historical trips that have influenced your creative projects.
