What’s Happening Behind the Scenes

I tend to scribble a lot

My website’s been pretty quiet lately, and I apologize for that. It’s because I’ve been busy on projects and tasks that you’ll see soon. Here are a few of them.

The Unremarkable Squire

I’ve spent my daily writing time lately going over corrections for The Unremarkable Squire, which is to be published this summer. I’m about halfway through my editor’s notes. It’s been fun to re-read the story again.

Man, I started that novel a long time ago….

Children of the Wells

What is this? you say. It’s a new multi-author project premiering in April. We hope to create a series of novels in a shared world. All stories will be available to read online as they are published chapter by chapter. Then we’ll have bonus-packed ebooks and such things.

But what is it about? you ask. Well, here’s a sneak peek:

The Cataclysm destroyed our magic wells and, along with them, our technology, our scientific advancements, and our aristocracy. We thought the world was dying. Forced to rely on our former enemies, we evolved, but in those first days, we had no inkling of the true extent of that change.

And that’s all I’m giving you for now. Except for this: I have the honor of writing the first novel, The Select’s Bodyguard. Here’s the tagline:

When the world’s burning, you save what’s most important…even if she’d rather die.

Stay tuned!

My Mailing List

I’ve been putting effort into building a mailing list. I recently reached my first goal of 20 subscribers. Yipee! The 20th subscriber, Pam Bottjer, will receive her choice of Another World or The Day After

Now let’s shoot for 50. I  think that’ll warrant an original story of the 50th subscriber’s choosing. Sound good?

And that’s it!

(Now I just have to get these things finished.)
