Stars and Graves Released!

Um. So, this is *seriously* belated, but if you haven't heard, Stars and Graves (book three of The Beast of Maug Maurai trilogy) is finally available! So sorry for the delays in getting this one out. I appreciate your patience, encouragement, and support. And would love to hear what you think about the conclusion to this trilogy.

I definitely did not see your reply to me. So Sorry!! I would absolutely love to read book 2. I was unsure if you had released it or not.
**I'll keep my fingers crossed regarding your other efforts with the interested publisher. :)
Newtown is finally looking like Fall (sans the constant rainfall). Halloween on Main Street should be great this year!


Roberto Calas I was planning on dropping it this week but had some interest from a publisher on another piece I have been working on. All efforts have now switched to the new piece for a few days. Then hopefully will have book 2 out next week. So sorry to keep you waiting =/ I can send over the *almost* completed version if you like. Would you be interested in beta reading it?
