First Post as Jetta! And New Series

Well, this year I decided to try out a new pen name for my fantasy writings.  This side of me writes what I call "low weird" as opposed to the "high weird" of my real name, Jodi Ralston.  In other words, Jetta isn't as weird as Jodi.  :-)

Currently, I am working on a novella/short novel series that features a Guardian Spirit named Guard.  He is an archer--an inspiration derived from the Arrow TV show, the omnibus Hooded Man by Paul Kane, and my own on-again, off-again interest in archery (on-again, since I just ordered an armguard and a finger tab).

Anyway, I hope to publish the first Guard story by early February, but before then I will talk more about it (and archery and hot hooded men) on this blog.

  2. Sounds very interesting. Really enjoy the character of Green Arrow which is the DC character that is the basis for ARROW television show.

    Look forward to hearing more about your short stories, and eventually to read them.

    1. Thanks!

      Currently, that is my favorite TV show. Bumped Supernatural out of the running. Although I only watch SPN anymore because of Castiel/Misha, so it is not hard to bump it out.

      Anyway, I look forward to rewatching Arrow Season 1 and what I have of Season 2 as I write. For inspiration purposes, of course ;-)

      Thanks for dropping a note, and feel free to chat me up on Arrow any time :-D
