Unlike a lot of my other stories, it is less heavily reliant on dialogue for character building, being as the main character can't speak, and there are less scenes of battle or direct violence. The emphasis is more on the magic system and political tensions. It's been a fun, if difficult, writing process, and I look forward to reading it through when it's finished!(less)
Amanda J. McGee Music, taking a walk, just forcing myself to sit down and do the work. It depends on the day, there are so many tactics.

A picture of A River Wide's book cover on a green variegated backgrounds with various words surrounding it:

What a journey to get here, folks. I recognize A River Wide is a tiny drop in a big, big bucket of publishing. But for me this is my first traditionally published standalone, and so, on this Labor Day, I am going to rest on my laurels.Thank you to Interstellar Flight Press and Holly for taking a chance on this book, and thanks to everyone who believed in it along
