I like that one. I like all of them. I write stories I want to read - and I do read my own books.
I would love to continue that adventure. We'll see. I hope you get to read the next part. Thanks for reading my books!

As soon as I stop writing and spend the time to do the tedious work of editing, proofing, and production. It takes time. But I'm so glad you are excited to read yet another of my stories! Thank you!

Because they don't have my voice. They don't know the world in my head. It hasn't worked for me in the past.
Marilyn Foxworthy
OK, yeah, those need to be fixed. Someday, I hope to do a complete rewrite of the Nogud Legacy. But that's half a million words. It will take a very long time, and truthfully, I'd rather be writing something new. I want to fix every error in every book - and I want to tell more enjoyable adventures. There is a conflict there.
Marilyn Foxworthy
Well, yes, there very well may be. But the way I write, I can't say when. Some are in process right now. Others are waiting for inspiration or for their chance at the top of the list. There will be more Shrine Maidens, more Sturgil's Mark, more about Tom and the sea pirates, more Accidental Quantum Wormholes, and always more Honest Attractions.

I certainly intend to. In fact, the first book is being reedited right now, and an updated version should be available shortly. That gives me a chance to refamiliarize myself with the story and possibly start book 2.

It is the professor. I don't think I was ready to reveal their gender yet. I may fix that in the next revision. "No one knew the new professor yet."
Marilyn Foxworthy
I do not know that one. Is it the one you are writing?
Marilyn Foxworthy
I think so, too, but my writing schedule has several other projects closer to the top. But we will go back!
Marilyn Foxworthy
There absolutely is! The fourth book is started, but it might be a while before I finish it. Hang in there. It might be a while.
Marilyn Foxworthy
Thank you! I appreciate it. I'll take a look.

Squeaker is apparently a teasing nickname used by Skipper's twin Chip. But there is a typo: Chip calls Skipper Squeeker not Squeaker at other times.
And the other one... I am not sure. I'll look into it. Thank you.

Thank you, Steve. These will be fixed in the next revision. I appreciate it.
It's difficult to find these from page numbers alone because of how Kindle reports pages. It helps if I have a few words of context to search for. I can't find what word should be "from" in chapter 8, for instance. If I had a partial sentence, it would make it much easier.
I've been able to find all the others. Thank you. Send me a private message when you find these and I'll do an edit. Best wishes.

Thank you. A new Honest Attractions book is available now. Tremors Art and Coffee.
Marilyn Foxworthy
It seems like they are picking them up, but sometimes takes several days. Tremors Art and Coffee is just 3 days old. Thanks for reading it!
Marilyn Foxworthy
The next books, probably coming in January are Honest Attractions. But there are many more in the works.

Hello! The Amazon Author page gives a way to follow me on Amazon. No email address though. Goodreads is a better way. Following me here gets you notices of new blog posts, etc. And for direct messages, Goodreads is best as well. Just send a direct private message between Goodreads users.

Hi, Joel. No, I don't have a release schedule. I have a few new Honest Attractions coming, and then a book related to the Guardian Maidens. I do want to finish sequels for all of the ones you mentioned, but there's no schedule. I'm glad you enjoy them.
Marilyn Foxworthy
Wow, Joel, I wasn't aware of that being in my books. The cannibals weren't meant to represent any particular aspect of Portland at all. It wasn't meant as any political commentary. I also wasn't aware of any economic ideology. I think Joshua felt that bad people suck and compassionate people rock. I'm not sure what liberal views led to bad results in the books. In The Nogud, it was a breakdown of civilization caused by a global cataclysm. And yeah, the cannibals are bad. And in The Dark Atoll, the coaches were bad. So... I don't think I intended any underlying political philosophy beyond "be excellent to each other." Thank you for asking.
Marilyn Foxworthy
Therre was a ... hiccup. I tried to post an alternate cover for the new book. One with a racier over, just for contributors. I accidentally crossed a line on content guidelines. They put my ko-fi page in a moderated restricted state until it was fixed. It may take a few days. Thank you for asking!
