Stirring on the Way
The progress with my books continues. It's been astounding over the last few months, as the website, marketing direction, covers, and book structure grew at light-speed before my eyes. All the exhaustive sorting of my books really paid off. (If there's any idea that I'm unobjective about my stories, that's not true. But more about that in another post.)
For this year I have 3 books scheduled, as well as a short story single release. And that's just old, backlogged material that either didn't make it to publication or was badly presented at first and needs to be redone and done right. I have a number of intriguing new ideas taking shape, but I've got to get all this out of the way first. Consuela is basically completed now and I hope to release it in about another month. After trial, I discarded the French Revolution setting and moved it out of historical altogether into the City of the Invaders world. I was startled at how well it fit, but with so many changes to the book I would call it a new story and will release it separately instead of using the old, now inapplicable ebook with a few reviews on it. A short fantasy story called Everwood (romance with a bit of gentle comedy) will come this spring. I wrote it a couple years ago and stumbled on it again by chance. It's really cute.The Prince's Ball should follow after. At present it's my longest individual work, since I didn't think about page count when I was younger and could really rattle on. American Homeschooler is tentatively being planned for publication at last. At least, some of it--some form of the Letty/Lamia/Luna story will resurrect and get legitimized in an ebook and print, so to speak. It appeared on FB almost a decade ago and I was sure it had lost relevance. But the story might still have a little something and people have been asking about a print for years. At least a couple more Invader-world stories and a fantasy-romance novella are also brewing. I'd love to be able to work on them more, but I have to get caught up first. The Lexie-and-Petra story is for the moment being considered to join the Invader world. There's a lot of complexity, in societies we haven't explored yet like Alphea, and after being able to move Consuela, I realize almost anything could transition to this world.
And there will be more updates.
