Chapter 5







The Process

Oh, the process. I wanted to blog on something with this chapter post, so I decided to post on the process of my other works in very little progress. I haven't lost the spark for Veritas, I am working diligently on it and the Q&A. The Q&A will be posted at a later date.

I can tell you that the reboot is a very different story. It won't be what you are used to . . .

What I'm finding the hardest is coming up with a name ! I don't know if you've noticed, but I've always had a hard time coming up with names. My best effort was with Sundays, because the day Sunday was reoccuring in the work. I have to admit I originally wanted to call Veritas "The Melancholy of Alan Gray" but, it doesn't fit the story. Most cyberpunk stories/novels are one word.

Blessed Hearts
Okay, I have noticed BH unintentionally has A LOT of similarties with LL. I mean A LOT ! I promise I'm not doing it on purpose. We haven't gotten to them just yet. . .

All the songs are YouTube clips !

Chapter 5 
Rin has been captured,taken in by Soul Lyre, and she just kissed him . . .

-1- The Engagement by Alexandre Desplat
-2- Bulletproof Weeks by Matt Nathanson
-3- Looking Back Kerry Muzzey (Bonus points if you can listen and figure out what TV show this song is used alot in !)

    1. I think it's an older song, I've been holding on to it for a while ! What can I say, I've learned from the best when it comes to music.

  2. Gah ! I'm scared because this is chapter 5 meaning we have two left. I'm starting to see how this story can have so many parts to it.

    1. Is it ? Is it ? . . .it's not. Um, it's driven by pegasus (pegasi ?), but I didn't want to say that. I didn't want to get bogged down in having to describe them.

  6. Rin seems really down-to-earth (lol), goal oriented, she just seems kind of strict with herself. Am I right ?

    1. Perfectly. She has had a life carved out for her and she intends to follow it. She is very straight laced. And you know what I love to do to straight laced people . . .

  7. Next to chapter 3 this one is my favorite. Although I imagine Soul doesn't have the best "moves".

  11. So, did Erik make those brownies ? *if you know what I mean*

    ReplyDelete

    1. I walked right into that one. That's why Erik isn't allowed to make brownies. Ever.

  12. I can really see the contrast between Soul and Rin. He seems sweet and full of wonderment.

    1. Hi Redrose. I can really see this. Oh Shawna were inspired by me. If so I'm really flattered but i'm married and so are you !!!!(that's still going on right ?)

      If not, I'm not offended. I wish I could write stuff people gush over like you do.

    2. Actually, Soul seems kind of like a Mama's boy but can you blame him.

      Delete
    3. I honestly wasn't thinking of you Mansfield.

      Yes, Soul is very much attached to his mother . . .

  13. I always thought Veritas was a kick-a name "The Melancholy of Alan Gray sounds really introspective though !

    1. I know. But, it doesn't lend itself to sequels. I'm glad you like Veritas.

  14. Whoa. Rin has 10 sisters ! Do we know how many kids her faher had with each wife ?

  15. Don't worry SH we would never accuse you of Insta-love !

    1. Insta-Love is like when they fall head over heels for NO apparent reason, but with PR stories there is room for explanations.

  16. Help Shawna ! I thought I saw a part where Rin says that Angels mostly care about doing good or something. Was I seeing things ?????

    1. Possibly. Who does she say it to ?

    2. Um. I think she says it to Soul when he says he wants to stay in Eden ????

  18. This chapter was so short. I'm so into BH I forgot all about Veritas. Dare I ask how UL is ?

    1. UL is slowly being planned. I am debating in my head what to keep, change and throw out.

  19. I peeked at the music and now all I can see is a close up of Lea Michelle's face after someone tells her off.

  21. Theory time, Ya'll. I'm thinking reincarnation and the dreams are actually memories. come at me !

    1. Memories from what ? I'm sure Rin didn't just wash up like Seraphim did. She'd remember that wouldn't she ?

    2. Would that even be possible with Soul being half human

  22. I wonder how Soul would fair if hew as raised in the human world.

    1. Me too. He wouldn't know he was part Demon. Which would make this a more traditional YA paranormal.

  23. I feel so bad for Thea. I thought she would be mean and creepy like Dark, but she seems nice. . . for a demon.

  24. Gabriel's death seems like such nightmare fuel. Even being burned while dead is just ):

    1. I take it you won't cremated. This will actually come back later . . .

  25. Does he even say Bulletproof in the song ? I wonder why it's called that.

    1. I think he does. It's just really elongated and changed.
