Getting back into writing is not easy. It takes time to get into the
right frame of mind, even with the practice stuff I've been doing over the last
couple of weeks.
I started Revolution For Vengeance properly yesterday and managed a measly
thousand words. Today was better with three thousand words and chapter
one completed. Of course I did spend about an hour yesterday working out
painted symbols for the Crew's armour. Today a similar amount of time was
spent researching Blue Hyper-giants.
A friend of mine post the below video on facebook and it really captured my
imagination.

It is mind blowing when you see how small our Sun is in comparison to
a lot of stellar bodies out there. After watching it, I had to include
one of them in the book. Nothing too much, just a random star they visit
for a rendezvous. I will admit astro-physics has been sacrificed in
the name of story-telling. Blue hyper-giants aren't that close to Earth
and there is no way one would exist a mere three light years from an inhabited
system.
Of course that is part of the fun of being a writer and hopefully it'll get
someone who reads it, to look them up.
Total for Revolution for Vengeance - 4,000 words.
