scottishlassThis morning I woke up with In Extremo on the radio. YES!
Mind it isn't such a small feat that one of my fave live bands is on the radio. Especially In Extremo who look like Highlander meet Rammstein, and their music is a mix of traditional Celtic music meets Goth with English, German, Latin and Old/Middle English and German lyrics :) They have bagpipes in every of their songs, along with the guitars and bass of a hard rock band.
Ama me fideliter Fidem meam nota De corde totaliter Et Ex mente tota (Love me from a true heart, See how I honour you in song, You fill again and again all my senses)
So now I'm in medieval mode, and straighten out some of my fumbles I did in my In Darkness We Stand. Hopefully the next chapter five will be finished over the weekend. Then a bit more fine tuning with the dialogue, and I can post Chapter Five next week, at last.
I'm glad you like the intro to the very first chapter of Scottish Fling (well that is the work title anyway). Still not sure if I can pull it off, if it is just a rendition of a childhood and adult life or a real romance. Hmm... to keep it more fictional I'd say the latter, this way I can also sell it better once I can muster up the courage to actually submit a complete novel to a publisher and not only short stories or excerpts. I also have made a deal with
spacellama and Terri - we want to get published :)
I'm also thinking about re-working Serendipity to make it an original fiction, so I can send it in. I don't think OB would appreciate it if his name is used other than a biography *LOL*
Okay off to work a wee bit more, after all I need booze and nosh to write in my free time :)
