Just ordered what I hope is the last proof for my first story to be published as an actual book: Solace: Uncharted Territory! I am pleased with the cover, but I decided to read it again and found some errors that I couldn't ignore. So I fixed them and I'm going to re-read it one more time just to appease my worrying self, and then it should be set to go. I am also going to upload the revisions to the ebook as well. I'm sorry that I did not see them when I originally published the story.
Solace: Lost is still on target for the March ebook release. I will eventually put this story into book form as well. I hope by the end of the year to have all my books in book form, mostly because I want to put them on my shelf reserved for books I love to read. I still fall in love with the characters when I read my own books just like the other books that are among my favorites. Perhaps that's because I can't believe that the story was written by me. You would think that with the amount of time I've put into reading and re-reading to get the story the way I want it that I wouldn't want to look at it ever again. But it's just not the case, I love these stories. I love the adventure, and the relationship that grows between the characters.
My editors still have the next book that I will have a release countdown for. I am really excited about this book. I don't know what to tell you about it... other than it took a life of its own after an idea I had while I was practicing Tai Chi. It wasn't really a story idea, but here I am with a book that as of right now is 115,575words (again research says a novel is about 60,000words). So, we'll see what happens after my editors get a look at it.
I have also finished the guts to an adult story, which means my kids will have to wait until they're 18. If I decide to even publish it. I have a friend who is going to take a look at it for me and make sure it isn't as bad as I'm afraid it is. Not that I don't like it - the story is great, but maybe I shouldn't try to go into the adult playground - it is still in it's roughest form, none the less I've never written a bedroom scene. Whatever possessed me to try, I have no idea. So we will have to wait and see what happens with that.
I guess that's covers my author news. Life is a whirlwind right now and I'm just trying to keep up, keep smiling, and keep loving each and every blessing in my life.
My Stories
I write adventures for those in search of a good story. My novels fall in the Fantasy genre, but many people consider them Sci-fi too. Each story is written with what I look for when I read a book: action, adventure, twists and turns, love, heroes, vicious enemies, fighting (weapons and hand to hand combat). I write because I want to share the stories that are inside of me. I hope you enjoy the adventures as much as I love writing them!
