So this is the newly expanded "Director's Cut'....of how it will appear in the book.
It takes place about a week before Baron and Naomi's wedding.
Telling Baron
"So … what's going on?" he asked.
"Oh … really?!? Umm … do I know him?"

My sister and I were working on the second book in the Somewhere In Time series - the Wedding - and it was in the lead up to Baron & Naomi's wedding that Dominic arrived on the scene. The book was going well until we hit that road block. The part in the story where Miho tells Baron that she's been seeing someone, and we are first introduced to Dominic, just wasn't working with the few sets of photos of them I'd taken back in 2022, and it needed to be expanded upon with more photos and an actual 'story'. So I quickly came up with several new scenes to help tell Miho's and Dominic's back story, and spent an entire week doing eleven marathon photo shoots. Then I combined the new photos with the older ones into a more cohesive story. So this is the newly expanded "Director's Cut'....of how it will appear in the book. It takes place about a week before Baron and Naomi's wedding. Telling BaronMiho had sent for Baron, and he found her in her garden. "You wanted to see me?" "Yes, I did. You know I love you,” she began, “and nothing is ever going to change that? No one is ever going to come between us?" Baron was confused. "Yes, of course. I love you too. What's this all about?" "Well … sit down.” and she waved him towards a chair. “I have something I want to tell you." "So … what's going on?" he asked. "I've met someone." Baron was taken a little aback. This was not what he'd been expecting. "Oh … really?!? Umm … do I know him?" "I don't think so. His name is Dominic, and he's a powerful sorcerer from a distant realm, far beyond Lawrence's kingdom.”

I always enjoy these two together. Their backstory has mystery and both tragedy and joy, all the elements of a great story. Now Dominic joins the picture. He and Miho make a wonderful couple. They're kind of a Medieval "power couple" - literally - a fairy queen and a powerful sorcerer. This is going to be very interesting!

Well, he's been part of the story for a while now, but we never knew how they came to be a couple. And the photos I'd taken of them the year he arrived just weren't good enough for the new book....so I came up with a new plausible back story.

I like that he reaches for her hand (or she reaches for his). They have been anchors for each other for so long. The gesture makes me feel that they know the importance of their bond. Comments are closed.
