Year-End Wrap Up, More Quotes, and More by BJ Neblett
Looks like we made it, sort of speak, to the end of another year. And who isn't glad to see this one end? As usual, here is a bit of a wrap-up of what I've been up to while forced to hunker down for the duration.
If nothing else, this forced lockdown has been good for the creative process. Much to my publisher's delight, I finished Planet-Alt-Sete-Nine Book Two: Princess Haylee. It should be hitting bookstores and online sellers in February. I'll keep you posted. Also, I have a good head start on book three, tentatively titled War of the Wizards. Finger's crossed for a late 2021 release. Also, later in the year, look for the paperback release of my New Millennialism contemporary fantasy collection of short stories, Wouldn't It Be Funny If.. to be released. And speaking of which, from now until January 1st, Wouldn't It Be Funny If... is available in all ebook formats for only .99 through Smashwords.
With Covid-19, it would seem that writing is about all I have to report for 2020. But that writing has produced a number of quotes which are already being talked about and gaining in popularity. So below is the yearly addendum to my growing list of popular quotes, a list of my available books, and a list of sites where you can learn more about me than you probably care to know.
Click the links below, and as always, like, link and comment!
Have a great, happy, and safe holiday. C 'ya on the other side!
Peace,
BJ

(On destiny and purpose)
“Our
destinies were set in the heavens long before the suns and stars were born. You
must remember that everything has its purpose, and everything happens for a
reason. I am here for a reason. As are you, and you and you. Each person’s
purpose is as different as the individual pursuing it. Yet they all point to a
single grand reason. Every occurrence is a link in a chain of events,
constantly moving towards the grand purpose. It is a purpose much greater than
any of us. Sometimes an occurrence
causes a break in the chain. You may alter your future, choose a different
path. But your destiny is set and cannot be changed. It is the nature of things
to right themselves and continue. Destiny will win out.”
The Wizard Inhodu from Planet
Alt-Sete-Nine: War of the Wizards by BJ Neblett

“Love
is the most private of feelings, obvious to everyone but our own selves.”

makes life a mystery. And it is the mystery that moves us towards the unknown.”

struck in the open, just as not all battles are fought on the field.”
From Planet Alt-Sete-Nine: Princess Haylee

change the equation to fit the conclusion.”
