Kit Smart Hi Allison, thanks for asking^^
The next book in the Glass Admiral series "The Iron Lieutenant" will be released for pre-order on April 30th at a discounted price. The book will then be delivered to your Kindle on May 13th.

I apologize for any inconvenience. I just decided to do a short pre-order period in order to avoid making any errors with the release sequence.

To be perfectly honest, I am a bit paranoid at applying my less than stellar math skills to the release situation particularly as I am working out of different time zones at the moment and so I figure the two week pre-order padding should be enough time to work out any last minute timing kinks. (Last time I did this, the book cover appeared a week after the book went up.)

Best,
Kit

Kit Smart I don't wait for inspiration. I make myself a cup of tea, put on my writer's hat (literally) and turn on the computer. Even if nothing 'inspired' comes to mind, I just start. I may need to throw out or heavily edit some of what I've written but hey, you can't do anything with a blank page right?
Kit Smart Write like you read. Write what you want to read. Do whatever you need to do not to doubt yourself.
Kit Smart The feline office mates; being able to work in my pajamas when it is cold out; connecting with readers; being able to entertain myself at the drop of a hat with the imaginary people in my head; maybe, just maybe making someone feel a little less broken.
Kit Smart I give myself permission to write trash so that I can just keep writing. Eventually, if I keep writing, I write my way past the block.
