I’m continuing to make progress on several fronts…

1) I’m still writing Beyond 2 and have just finished chapter 5!  So far, the story line is coming along pretty nicely, moving towards the goals I had for the rest of the novel, and some of the writing has been downright fun!

2) I’ve recorded a sort of “version 1” of the Rescue’s Introduction.  So far, it seems I can eliminate most of the noise, get the recording in the right DB range, and my voice doesn’t annoy me too much.  I’ve also figured out how to layer in music (for like “bumps” when a chapter begins).

3) To move forward and get the recording to a place where it would be ready for others to preview and comment, there are a couple of things I need.  My first attempt at recording pointed out a glaring need for a boom mike.  Well, that’s not much a of challenge, since good ones can be purchased off Amazon for about $35.  Second, I need some royalty free music for the intro.  My thought it that I get these things, re-record, and try to burn through a couple of chapters.  Then, I can give it to some friends for review.  That should tell me if I’m moving in the right direction! 🙂

Many thanks to the nice people who are encouraging me to move forward! 🙂
