B.D. Messick's Blog: Musing In Other Words

Been A While

I am terrible at keeping up with these. Mostly, I don't have much that seems interesting to say...I don't suppose that you want to know what I had for lunch or crap like that, so I just post when there is something...

So here goes:

All Things In The Shadows I, my new YA/Urban Fantasy series featuring a lesbian main character is due out in March.

Aperios - The Mythik Wars I, my new Adult/Dystopian/Urban Fantasy series is also set to debut in March.

I will have a short story published by Fire&Ice Publishing featuring the two main characters from All Things In The Shadows (Eve and Kateri) due out in March as well. (It has a theme of H.S. prom)

The second book in the All Things In The Shadows series is done (first draft).

The second book in the Mythik Wars series is about 1/3 complete.

My first Steampunk YA series - Amaveo is about 50% complete. (Have not worked on this one for a while)

So...that's my news. If you have any questions, feel free to email me!!

Hey all...the end of the road is finally here. If you've gone on this journey with Rayn and Luk, see how it ends.

Thank you for all the support...for all the kind words...and for all the criticism...it all makes me a better writer.

Enclave for 2017

So, Enclave, book IV and the finale of the Sojourn series has been scheduled for early 2017 release!

Just finished the first round final edits. Hope to see a cover proof in the next month or so.

Its Here!

Beastlands is finally here!

The cover looks great and I think this is the best of the three so far!

If you're a fan...grab a copy and let me know what you think!

Beastlands Date

It's finally here!

YAY!!

Seeking A Beta Reader

So...if you are a fan of my work...I need your help.

I am trying to find someone willing to do a read through of my latest novel - All Things In The Shadows - a YA urban fantasy.

If you are interested...please message me!

Beastlands Giveaway

So...the giveaway is here!!

I am expecting the book to release sometime around August 15th!!

Make sure to sign up starting on July 30th for a chance to win a copy of the third book in the series.

Beastlands VIII

Approved the final cover proof today with all the wording in place. I think it looks awesome.

The first print copy has been ordered and should take about two weeks and then maybe another two weeks for final approval.

Will be setting up a giveaway as soon as I have the ISBN #...so keep an eye out for that. Hope to surpass the number of entries for Deadlands.

Now I just need some people who liked it...to actually read it. Sales on both books have completely stalled and I am at a loss as to what to do to get them started again.

If anyone has any ideas...or can help...please contact me!

I truly appreciate each and every person who has ever read one of my works...it means the world to me.

As a writer, the only thing that matters to me is the reader!

Just Another Post

Okay...so the cover is now done for Beastlands...so I'm expecting the final proof for the book (the one with the blurbs and so on) within the next week or so.

A week or so later I will have a print version of the book in my hands!

. . . .

All Things In The Shadows II is coming along slowly...a lot of twists and challenges in plotting this one out.

I hope that you guys like this series as much as Sojourn.

. . . .

Anyway...don't forget.

NEVER STOP READING!
