Taking the Andy Weir route for folks looking at my book.

Hi,

Welcome to my Science Fiction story, "Gladiators of Internium: The Realm of Stolen Memories.”

I started running this story several years ago and have done my best to write it at an understandable level. There may be sections that need more work and attention to flush out details and story points, but this is why I am doing this Andy Weir review style.

Let me know if you see anything that needs to be corrected so I can revise it. This is a family drama, mystery, and science fiction novel with swordplay. But I have done my best to make it easy to read. This was the type of book I wanted to write in my teens as I was power-diving my way into the works of Robert Heinlein, Frank Herbert, and Edgar Rice Burroughs.

These stories occur on an extraterrestrial superstructure inhabited by ex-Roman gladiators, Roman citizens, ancient Chinese, and an alien race known as the Squall. All of them were resurrected from the dead after many centuries. It has been a generation since a renegade explorer returned to this place with these primitive humans. A mystery has started to surface in that many of the humans resurrected via the Squall have had sections of their memories stolen. When the Ancient Gladiator General Spartacus, a friend of the Squall explorer Libra, turns up, this mystery hits home. As the search to discover what happened to Spartacus's memory unfolds, a larger conspiracy starts to reveal itself and may connect to the events that led to the peace that the Squall and the humans now share.

Please let me know what you think of the story by responding to my Facebook or other social media pages. -----

Over the last couple days I have been working on the end of my novel and it had been a tiring task to complete. Now as I see the end approaching, I am thinking about the editing process. Since I have helped my friend Ollie wok on his book about Dante’s Inferno, I am glad that I am going to have some help in getting this thing published.

Here is to the start of six months of editing before me.

Welcome to the run.

[hearns]

Been working on my novel again

Sorry about not posting sooner, but I have been up to my eyeballs with other things in my life.

Though this week I have been able to get some time to update my master document with my ongoing word count.

242,091 words

Following this with the design of my completed maps that I started work on at the start of the month.

They are a little rough, but one gets the idea of what I am aiming for.

So, if you want to learn more, just send me a reply as I am in the process of looking for an editor to help me out. I know that I am looking at six months of editing, but this is something that I want to do.

Till next time.

Editing my novel. On Page 270 and working my way through it. Catching the little errors is a lot of work, but worth it. Also waiting to her back from my friend Ollie about getting a professional proofreader and editor to look at my book. Will keep everyone updated on what happens next. #iamwriting #iamwritingabook #iamwritingscifi #iamediting #gladiatorsofinteritum (at Eastern New Mexico University - ENMU) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKfN2kMDAc_/?igshid=1j4uiryyb17d1
