About this author


Writers want everyone to love their work, or at least to like it, or at the very least to not hate it. It’s why we agonize over plots, over story arcs and characters, settings and scenes and dialog. It’s why we get feedback from as many sources as possible. It’s why we write and revise and crumple and delete and start over.

Roxilox Can't wait for the next one. I keep checking amazon every week looking for "Arcanus" to be out! I'm dying to find out what happens next, especially with Jessie and her mother!

Tyra Lynn Sanette wrote: "When is Arcanus coming out? I cannot wait!"
I am so sorry I missed your earlier message! As for this question, I do not have a release date yet. I am working a couple of angles on the sequel and then will decide which will be the finished product. The thing that most people mentioned loving about Tempus was the relationship between Jessie and Gabriel. Secondary was the time travel/abilities. I wanted book two to be more about the secondary things, but I don't want to disappoint those who were looking for more romance. I am writing more than one version of many scenes, so it is taking a lot longer than I originally anticipated. Hopefully I will be able to take the best of both versions in the end and release something everyone can enjoy.

Please feel free at any time to send me messages. I LOVE to hear other peoples ideas and theories. I have had interesting experiences which were incorporated into the story, and I have learned so many interesting things while researching for both books. I wish I could share it all because I find it all so fascinating!

Thank you so much for your kind words and interest in both Tempus and Arcanus. I will try to update when I am closer to a release date!
Tyra

Sanette When is Arcanus coming out? I cannot wait!


message 32: by Sanette

Sanette Thanks for adding me! Your book is awesome, your theories on time and energy are amazing and something I really identified with as it was close to what I believe about the universe and the life that inhabits it's planets. The romance between Jessie and Gabriel was one of the most intense relationships I have read about so far, in fact I had to reread the last chapter again today just to feel that passion again. I loved it.

I'm also eager to talk to anyone who is a fan of The Discovery of Witches. I have read the book 7 times. I was so excited when I discovered she spent the summer not far from my house writing book two.

I am really looking forward to your second book! Thanks again for the add.

ROFL. Those are both good choices for his appearance! I have the advantage of knowing exactly what he looks like (lol) but it is fun to know what others picture.


message 20: by Carrie

Carrie So as I was reading Tempus, I kept trying to picture Gabriel...this is who I had in mind

Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices #2)

because if I didn't picture him, I kept picturing...
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2116419/

Do you know him? It's the guy from Wizards of Waverly Place and he plays a werewolf with an english accent, but not nearly sexy enough for Gabriel...so I was determined to come up with someone else (see above)!
Just thought I'd share!!

You're welcome, Brittany! I know exactly what you mean about books you want to read getting jumbled, I have stacks of paperbacks and tons of ebooks just waiting to be read while I'm working on the sequel to Tempus, running a business, raising a family, and trying to keep my sanity, lol. One thing about my crazy life is there is never a dull moment, and I mean n.e.v.e.r! It was great to hear from you and I look forward to your review in the future. Please "stop by" and say hi any time!

Brittany Thanks for emailing my Tyra! I had to double back and see which book it was that you wrote, but as soon as I saw it I remembered. There have just been so many books that I want to read that sometimes they just get jumbled. I have only heard good things about your book, so as soon as I do have a chance to read it I will definitely let you know what I think. Thanks so much for reaching out to me. That was very awesome and gives you more points in my book! Hope to hear from you sometime again!
