Philosophy

It's looking like I may have to bone up on my philosophical knowledge. The Augury of Gideon is weaving in the direction of the characters pondering Life, the Universe, and Everything. Since they're focusing on a collection of prophecies that will bind the relics together and bring some sort of resolution to the Vampire race, it would stand to reason that the characters would wax philosophical. I'm eyeballing Being and Nothingness on my bookshelf right now. I may have to zip to the library and gets some books by Nietzsche and Aristotle. Who else? I'm open to suggestions.

Eeeee!

I got copied on a letter from Sophie to Amy (the art guru at Fey) forwarding her the image of Cadmus drawn by m0usegrrl. Amy is supposed to create the book cover for The Chalice and give any copyright credits appropriate to said image (see icon for the image in question). I was copied on the note to confirm the name of the trilogy and to make sure m0usegrrl is privy to the goings-on regarding her art. I am so loving this. I told Sophie and Amy that I'm so excited, I could pop. And I could, I really could.

The only downside is that it's hard for me to get into character while writing on The Augury of Gideon. Cadmus is being difficult (as usual) and I'm not even trying Gideon right now, even though I probably sound crazy. I've come to the realisation that you can't write good Vampire fiction (or what I consider good Vampire fiction) when you're freakin' gleeful.
