Well, just got word from my Publisher to send them email contacts for local media for the Official release of the book. I also had to supply a list of book stores and such for them to contact for potential book signings. I am excited as things move onward. I also want to sent a thank you to those who bought the book, I now have a sales rank at both Amazon and Barnes & Noble…Not a top seller, but it’s being bought. I hope those of you who purchased it enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it. I have one request however, if you read it and enjoy it, give me a hand and write a review at either Amazon and/or B&N and at my websites which are:

Now, between travelling for work and the 4th of July Holiday, I’ve finished drafting chapters 6 & 7 of Book II. I beginning to wonder if this book is going to be as big as Book I. As I said on my facebook page, I must ramble way too much, it’s at 18,703 words thus far, and I haven’t went back through these drafts yet. When I do, I’m sure more will be added. Tammy, my wife, and Elora, my daughter, have proofed and edited them to this point, but those chapters in my eyes are still far from completed. Thus far, I have not deviated too far from my outline, but as soon as the characters really take control of the story, who knows.

As far as what is happening thus far? Well, our survivors from book I are regrouping and getting recognized for their heroic efforts by the city. Yet, forces out there are beginning to stir to stop them from achieve their true goal. Lord Hardin, for one, as planned a surprise for the city’s royal family, which brings in the new character that I mentioned last time that I enjoy writing. She’s a dark, arrogant, but successful assassin. The creature freed in Book I is seeking his title, and the elfin families that were never truly united in one cause are splitting, choosing which potential heir they should side with, the prophesized one or this new far more powerful creature named Rygerri.

For our hero Jason Shadowgrass? It simple, he stood beside Lady Norrelle all these years, and she him. His life now changed, for the better, he understands his role in the grand scheme. He faced Rygerri on that dreadful day and the beast fled from him, he’s determined to face him once again.

Well I won’t give anymore away. ‘till next time.
