The Writer's Life

Another two or three thousand words should get me out of this latest Endarkened section. I'd been writing one of the sub-plots without knowing where it was going, and today I found out. *Ugh* Maybe it won't have to go into this book, but I have an awful feeling it will.

And how are all of you at this end of summer? Or of winter, depending.

Busy busy here - as I am sure you are also. We've had major flooding although fortunately the worst that happened to me was some wet carpet in our basement.

I am re-reading the first trilogy, Kellen's, and I am curious about something. Vestakia says that it is common for the demon males to disguise themselves and get women pregnant. The half demon baby is usually born with a demon nature. Are these children full demons? I had assumed that this was how the demons reproduced - that they were incapable of reproducing together but I saw in Crown that that assumption was wrong. So, why do the Endarkened reproduce through human women? What do they do with the half demon children? I noticed that Vestakia doesn't have wings but all the demons seem to... do the half demon children normally have wings?

I also saw that Vestakia mentions that they have 'story songs' about this - any chance of getting to see one of those?

Just one of those things that niggles at you when you are reading something for the 10th time. Thanks!
