Denise Schuh

I'm an educator and writer working with two different pen names. I have a Post-Apocalyptic trilogy out under the pen name D.L. Bunch, and an Urban Fantasy novelette series with a small pub under the pen name, Denise Spain. I'm reviving this pen name with a new, full-length novel series. That is the project I'm currently working on.

Two binge writing sessions this weekend, and I'm done with book 2 of the new series! Now, a final read through before sending off for developmental edits. I'm feeling accomplished!

The day job and daylight savings (not including planetary alignments, blood moons, and Friday the 13th) have killed me this week. Getting back on track...

Line Edits came back early on Book 1, so been working on that. Got back to Book 2 yesterday and didn't log. Closer and closer. Need to buckle down and just finish it so I can send it off to the editor, finish Book 1 completely, and then start Book 3. I also changed the name from Blood's Ruin to RiftMarked. Getting closer!

β€œwow, can we say productive?? Keep up the good work!” – mwigington

These are the new words from cleaning up a chapter...it always takes me longer when I'm wrapping up a story.
