As you may have read in my “Coffee with David” blogs, thing have been changing with my writing schedule and my life. As such, I am taking Dark Medicine out of the “tomb” and begin to rework it as I work on The Guardians. Unlike The Guardians, Dark Medicine will not need to be re-imagined. However, I have realized I made the plot far too complicated with far too many characters. So, it will need to be re-plotted.

I don’t know if I will use some of the “scraps” in future stories, but looking at the novel as I had written it I had the makings for at least three or four novels. Instead I am going to re-plot the novel and focus on the core plot and subplots. I realize that progress will be slow as I am working on The Guardians, working on short fiction and my involvement in various events while balancing the “bill paying” job and the changes occurring there.

Thank you for reading and please visit www.davidalanlucas.com for continued updates on the novels, novella and short stories I am working on.
