Out Into the World…
There is something nerve-racking about putting a new novel out into the world for someone else to read. Yet, there we have it. My manuscript has been sent into the world for initial feedback. Yes, the re-writing and the self-editing phase for The Roots of Infinity has been completed. After sixteen-plus drafts, the final manuscript (first shareable copy) is being passed to my editor and first readers.
Luckily, I'm working with the same editor, Oren Eades, whose expertise and keen eye helped to enhance my last series, The Mage's Cradle. I'm also lucky to have MJ (Jane) and Sid volunteer as my first readers. They, too, will provide editorial comments, I'm sure. I have three more first readers to hand this to in the upcoming week.
I've crafted a synopsis I'm happy with.
------------------------------------------
Synopsis:
The Yuna Tree, the Eternity Tree, the Boundless -- regardless of how it is named, whispered tales of old say that the Yuna Tree's gnarled, ancient branches reach through space, time, and even different realities. For those who have the magic to see it, the Yuna Tree is the soul of the galaxy, touching every planet with its infinite limbs. However, the Yuna Tree is not the only Eternity Tree in existence. Another galaxy with an insidious nature is slowly growing, seeping across the realm of the Yuna.
In space, two celestial bodies collide. The Urmol is merging with the Yuna. Opposing forces cannot coexist. Ripples are created through space and time that render, rip apart, eradicate, and change people forever. Magically gifted outcasts from different worlds discover a secret they share in common that could save everyone they hold dear, and that makes them the hunted target of the evil heart of an entire galaxy.
Below is the elevator pitch:

------------------------------------------
The Roots of Infinity is one step closer to being released -- finally. The editing process is unpredictable. However, I hope to get this into your hands soon. Pre-sales will start once I get a better sense of how long the editing process will take.
I am getting there! Speak soon.

Quick update: Dythan's Tower Now Available in Audible
It's Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend, and our household is going through a bout of COVID. That basically means we can't see my asthmatic elderly mother this weekend. I'm majorly disappointed as I'd been looking forward to this weekend for weeks.
Since I was looking for some good news, at least my narrator, Zac Katz-Stein, has completed the link: Audible version of Dythan's Tower -- book two of The Mages Cradle. Thank you, Zac, for your incredible work. We can look forward to Zac completing book three, A Sister's Sacrifice, sometime this upcoming January.
Oh, and there are promising rumors that my fourth novel, The Roots of Infinity, is nearing completion, and it looks like I may make this self-imposed deadline. Wish me luck!
Peace,
Lincoln

Eating Humble Pie and The Mage's Cradle Audible Update
Eating Humble Pie
Today, as I write this, it's September 1st. To anyone who has been paying attention -- is anyone paying attention? If you are, please let me know in the comments -- you would have noticed I had promised to have my next novel out in September of this year. Also, before, I had promised it would be released in July 2023. Well … I've had to learn another valuable lesson about not making promises that I can't keep.
I can't make any excuses other than saying life happens. This summer has been hectic, with some unexpected highs and some unfortunate lows. The importance of family has been driven home, along with the need to spend as much time as life will allow with my last remaining aging parent. At my mother's age and with her health conditions, I'm thankful we still have her with us. I'm blessed to have had parents who loved me no matter what. Hopefully, you've had the same experience -- and if so, please hug them and tell them you love them as much as you can before they are gone. And yes, I'm very much aware that not everyone, for one reason or another, has had a loving childhood.
Anyway, as the most recent editing of the first book of this next two-book series gets closer to completion, my editors have reminded me that maintaining a high level of quality is more important than rushing. So, I beg your forgiveness for overpromising and underdelivering. Ask for your patience, and hope this next story will be worth the wait for you.
I'm getting closer. Barring unforeseeable events, "The Roots of Infinity" should be released this year. Once I'm a month away from publishing, look out for the ability to do pre-orders. That would be a good sign that I'm close to completion. With any hope, I wouldn't again be eating humble pie.

The Mage's Cradle: Dythan's Tower (Audible version)
Speaking of life happens, instead of using my voice to record the Audible version of book two, Zac Katz-Stein, who also narrated book one, will do the voice-over for books two and three. Book two is nearing completion, and book three's Audible version will hopefully follow in the latter part of this year.

A Quick Word About The Mage's Cradle Audible | What I'm Trying to Say Is . . .
A quick word on The Mage's Cradle Book Two and Three Audibles
Thanks to everyone who enquired about the audible versions of books two and three of The Mage's Cradle. Look out for the Audible version of book two (Dythan's Tower) to be released this August/September and book three (A Sister's Sacrifice) by December 2023. A friend of mine has convinced me to use my own voice and record them myself . . . here goes.
⭌⭌⭌⭌⭌
What I'm trying to say is . . .
I've had an epiphany. It's simple, really, nothing earth-shattering. But it's a lesson we all seem to repeatedly need to learn. The epiphany -- better to take one's time and things well than rush and put out something that is . . . meh.
Let me back up just a little. First, exciting news -- after nine discovery drafts, I've just about finished the first completed draft of my next novel (tentatively named World Jumpers, but the name will change). Cue happy dance. I have to say, even I'm surprised about the ending. Now the editing rigamarole can start.
Second, this experience was a great lesson in how to just write and worry about editing later on. Many writers I've idolized have stressed the difference between writing and editing and the need to split these into two distinct processes. I must admit that until I genuinely embraced that concept, telling the story was taking forever. However, once I did, I found the freedom to explore some wild and crazy tangents without second-guessing or judging what I wrote. True, I wrote a couple of chapters that ended up on the cutting floor. However, more importantly, I not only found the different character's voices, but a few unexpected twists, in the end, made total sense for the story.
Finally, the lesson mentioned above, take one's time, hit home when I finally got COVID (I've managed to avoid it for three years), and I was forced to slow down. Not that I was sick that long, and thankfully it was a mild case. What the bout of COVID did, however, was give me time to reflect. My story was getting to a place I was happy with, but it was not quite right. For me, getting sick forced me to slow down. It also gave me the time and space to be more thoughtful. One evening, I took the time to re-map out the entire story arch (which, to be honest, happened several times). A few decisions came from that -- split the story into two more digestible books rather than one large volume, and allow myself more time to produce a thoroughly enjoyable novel.
What I'm trying to say is that I need to delay the next release of my next novel by another couple of months. I'll be working through the story with my editor, Oren (Robert) Eades, who will not only provide professional editing support but will also help me to finesse the text and the story overall. Also, if MJ, Theo, and Sid are reading this -- don't worry. I'm still coming to all three of you for additional first-read/editing support.
Thanks, everyone, for your patience. If you are curious, I've also updated the World Jumpers synopsis . It's still not quite right, but it's getting there -- and I still need my two-sentence elevator pitch.

What Have I Been Up To?
There goes my hope of doing a blog every month. How do YouTubers do it? But I’ll be honest — like most people, it has been a crazy fall and a bizarre winter. What have I been up to?
Well, recovering from knee surgery has not been an easy road. I’ll try not to gore you out with the details (and maybe skip to the next paragraph if you are squeamish), but I separated my quad muscles in two places from my kneecap. Yes, it was as painful as it sounds, and now months later, I’m still recovering (another few months to go) and, for now, walking with a cane. For the record, doing one-hundred squats per day seemed like a great idea at the time. I received a stern (yet hilarious) lecture from my surgeon, who had one of the best bed-side-manor of any doctor I’ve ever met. Mostly it was about no longer attempting to do the exercises that I did in my twenties and thirties . . . yes, I’m getting old. But as someone who used to be in top shape during my professional dancer days (I miss my abs), this was the first winter since my teenagehood that I hadn’t been able to exercise several times per week. I hadn’t realized until this year that working out had done wonders for keeping my mood up. In our area, we only had three sunny days in January. At least the sun is out today.
I took several online writing courses. If you have the extra cash to sign up for MasterClass, N.K. Jemisin and Neil Gaiman have very inspirational lessons. I also returned to basics and revisited courses that taught grammar for a novelist. That included proper punctuation for dialogue and advice on how/when to use a semi-colon (the consensus out there seems to be . . . don’t!). For my previous novels, I’m happy to report that I scraped money together to hire a professional book editor to re-edit books one and three for me. A huge thank you to Oren Eades. He’s personable and professional, and I will definitely use him again. Once I scrape enough cash together again, I will see if he could re-edit book two for me, but for now, I will leave that as is.
Finally, I’ve been writing. I had a draft title of World Jumpers. However, as I near completion, the name doesn’t quite fit anymore, although the draft image does. See my page —– for the description. It is about eighty percent done. This has definitely been a different process than my first series. Granted, after almost two decades, the characters in that first series had been defined and redefined in my head. As the plot and the character’s motivation shifted, a number of discovery drafts (which no one will ever see) were needed for World Jumpers. As I complete the first full draft that will go out for review, I’m delighted with how it’s turning out, but more work needs to be done before I start the review/editing cycle. That includes taking a break from World Jumpers to give me some distance from it. What I’m trying to admit is getting it completed by May 2023 is a bit ambitious. However, it should be out and available by July/August this summer. You can read a draft synopsis of my subsequent work on the link: Coming Soon page of my website.
Hey, other writers, I have a question for you. Have you been writing a story where you have been close to completion, only to have another novel’s story come into your conscious mind? Over the past two weeks, a speculative fiction/sci-fi novel has popped into my brain. Maybe when I’m pausing World Jumpers, I’ll jump into writing that story.
So to anyone who may see this, there may not be one novel out this year, but two. We shall see. Thanks for reading!

Blog: Retrospective (What I’ve learned after my first trilogy)
What’s up, everyone? Or maybe hello to just you? I’m not sure how many people would see this, but I can use my imagination. If you prefer videos, I’ve also recorded a video version of this blog, which has been posted on Amazon.com on my author page. Also, look for that video at:
shandlincoln.com/myblog
I’m not brave enough to post this on YouTube yet, but we shall see.
At my day job, after each project, what we usually do is a retrospective. A retro is a look back at the project, looking at the feedback, what went well, what didn’t go so well, and seeing what you can do differently for the next time. Feedback, the good, the bad, the … you know how that saying ends, well feedback does help us grow. I figured, why not?
My first lesson, I found the creative outlet that will take me into my older years. While I used to be a professional dancer, actor, and singer. I had a relatively satisfying career in Toronto, Ontario. I have to say that returning to writing and doing something creative again helped me to keep my sanity during those lockdowns. Things are not quite back to normal, but at least we are better than we were in 2020 and 2021 . . . Not that 2022 is turning out to be any better, but I digress. I love the arts. I love science, and I’m glad I get the chance to return to being creative and have two fantastic careers. I plan to continue to write novels into my old age.
The second lesson learned -- omg! Editing! Man, I got dinged for that. And rightly so. While my editors were great and performed editing in their day jobs, they don’t edit fantasy novels for a living. It's a different skill set. I apologize for any typos, misuse of words, and anything that took you out of the story. Hopefully, you can still enjoy the tale of Togan, Jisra, Thillana, Dythan, and the rest. Huge lesson learned -- spend the money on professionals. I am in the process of hiring a professional editor to give these stories a thorough review and republish them. I will spend the extra money on professionals. On that note, I’m looking to cultivate a relationship over my next novel with a good professional editor who I can click with, so if you know someone…send me a message. We can connect and see if we are a fit.
Let’s see, I’m taking a writing workshop as it’s been a while since I’ve taken one. Grammar, or what’s acceptable, has evolved over the years, but good writing is still good writing.
I also need a good writing circle during the creation process of people who are not shy about telling me that I’m being long-winded and too cerebral. I hate reading a book with a slow start or that “tells and not show,” and I fell into that trap at points. Lesson learned. Surround yourself with people who can call you out. Also, I want to know when something is exciting, and I should explore more in a particular direction. But in a kind manner. Constructive feedback is what we all need. I would help others in the same respectful way that does not destroy friendships.
What else… don’t be afraid to leave things that aren’t working on the cutting floor. Be patient, don’t try to write 2 novels in one year -- especially when you have a day job. Oh, by the way, even though I published 3 books, if you noticed, each novel contained 2 parts that were entire novels unto themselves. If republishing a professionally edited version 2, I hope to release them as six complete, more digestible novels.
If you do your own advertising on Amazon, take advantage of their help center. I blew all -- I mean all -- of my advertising budgets after book 2 was released before I figured out how to make better use of their targeting algorithm. … To be honest, I still have not figured this out completely.
Anyways, so I’m going to keep writing. I have six ideas floating in my head at the moment. Two involve taking a couple of the characters from the Mage’s Cradle and doing a prequel or sequel focusing on their stories. I also have two sci-fi novel ideas and two other fantasy scripts. I’ll have something out by next spring -- relatively.
Anyways, thanks for reading … even if it’s an audience of one … If it is, “hi, mom.” If you like this blog, please let me know. I hope to do these periodically.
Take care of each other, take care of the planet, and speak to you soon.
Peace
