"The Flower Chamber" is taking shape

THE FLOWER CHAMBER is the working title of my new series, which stars Omaha as The Goddess Hathor Reborn, in a Domed City of the Future after the Great Economic Collapse, trying to make it work between Men and Women in an uncertain world, from an Egyptian palace under the dome where love is being dispensed for free.

This is a piece that is partly Science Fiction and partly allegory, and of course it is adults only.

After a lot of beginning research, I seem to have turned a corner. Now the story I believed on-and-off that I had, is starting to emerge, in big surprising bursts. There's a lesson here somewhere, something like, when something grabs you hard, stick with it and believe in it no matter how crazy it seems. Things that caused me to believe my story was totally absurd, have emerged as important plot points, and things that came up to stymie me have popped into the story with a meaning that I didnt even suspect until i did more research, and connections I made that i thought were foolish have turned out to have historical or mythological significance and belong in the story for reasons I only found out later. In the end, of course, i'll smile and do the cat thing, of saying "oh yeah, I meant to do that." When really, stuff just keeps falling in my lap.

 Here is a promotional drawing of our star, Osanna (aka Hathor) in Her palace, which will appear on the back cover of Larry Welz's upcoming Cherry #23.

I will post developments as they occur.
