“Your thoughts betray you, my love. I know you still love him, though he can never be your mate, for only I can. We are the only two of our species. You slyly loved him in high school. You would never let him near, for your instincts could see our eternal fate. He pined for you, dreamed of you, and felt your mind in a most intimate way. His father’s abuse wrecked his fragile genius, and his pe... Read more of this blog post »

Biesele does not fail to deliver in the second part of this fascinating and intricate series. Those who have read the first book will enjoy how the sequel keeps all of the lush world details and literary eye-candy of its predecessor, but also adds...

I have fallen in love with this series, and book #2 was every bit as good as the first one.
I love how unique but well fleshed-out the story and characters are. Will definitely keep and read again. " |

Sitting here trying to decide whether or not to do another Goodreads giveaway. Truthfully (feel free to show me I am wrong) it seems like most books I give away here end up on a shelf for months. When I give them away on my Facebook page, they are read rather quickly. Just saying...

Parallax Literary Journal also interviewed me. In that interview I reveal much about the symbolism in book #1. You can read the interview here: http://parallaxedjournal.wordpress.co...
The review of "The Saeshell Book of Time Part 1: The Death of of Innocents" by the Parallaxed Genre Fiction Literary Journal has been posted. Here is the link to it: http://parallaxedjournal.wordpress.co...
Check out the new Parallaxed Genre Fiction Literary Journal out of San Diego State University in California at: http://parallaxedjournal.wordpress.com/ When their journal officially launches tomorrow, they are going to publish a review of The Saeshell Book of Time Part 1: The Death of of Innocents and an interview they did of me.
If you have reviewed book #1, "The Saeshell Book of Time Part 1: The Death of Innocents" and rated it a 4 or 5 and you want to get a free review copy of book #2, "The Saeshell Book of Time Part 2: The Rebirth of Innocents", you should send me a message and let me know. The first batch of ARCs of book #2 will be in on Thursday and I am making a list of people who will get one from the first batch. So message me ASAP if you want to be on the list.
I should receive the proof of book #2's color Collector's Edition today, yay! By the way, I have a giveaway of 3 black and white book #1 Reader's Edition over on the book's Facebook page. It expires at 11:59pm today. To participate in the giveaway, you need to have a Facebook account. https://www.facebook.com/ChildrenOfSo...
Loaded the interior of book #2 into the press. The press's automated book reviewer shows a simulation of what the real paper book will look like. See a screenshot on the Children of Sophista Book Series Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/ChildrenOfSo...
Right now 1300+ people are reading several micro-fiction stories about the world of the Children of Sophista on the Book Series Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/ChildrenofSo...
The Facebook page for my Children of Sophista Book Series is a happening place right now: https://www.facebook.com/ChildrenofSo...
I'm thinking at the moment of when book #2 comes out, that I won't do a general giveaway but do a giveaway involving those who rated book #1 a 4 or 5. My thinking is that it does little good to give away book #2 to people who haven't read book #1 or who didn't like book #1. What do people think? Ideas welcome.
Merry Christmas everyone. 
Atreyeu imparts artistic talent to Paul25 during the Renaissance (book #2).
They don't have Christmas on Sophista but a Christmas present that would be high on many people's list would be if someone could touch your mind and bring latent artistic talent to the surface so you could suddenly paint.
