This is the week that all things happen! It's also the week of Christmas, which is exciting all by itself!
My "real life" work has slowed down so I am taking some time off, which means... I'm a writer once again!
This is the deal ~ I am currently reading RtB for the one hundred and second time (exact number unknown) and then continuing on to read the 300 pages I've already written for the sequel. The goal: to reconnect with the characters, making certain everything is as it should be. I need to immerse myself back where I belong... in Weslyn!
Then I'M FINISHING THE SEQUEL! By Christmas morning I should have the most fabulous gift in my editor's e-mail inbox!! No, I still don't have a title. I know that may be strange to some, but I really need to finish every page and then step back and let the title emerge. As soon as I have it, I will release it, along with the cover.
Now for the big question - the release date? Well... it won't be in 2011! Ha! But since my life as a writer will be full time for a while, I can devote myself to working with my editor to make certain the sequel is what you deserve. Once we begin the process, I think we should be able to provide a more concrete date - I will let you know in a couple of weeks!
For other news... I am in the process of submitting RtB to be printed as a Paperback! Something tangible you can hold in your hands and breathe in the pages! I've had a few ask about autograph copies - I will leave a post on my web site when they are available and you may purchase them from the site.
I think this occasion deserves a song!
Soundtrack Song #7 should make you feel good!

The sequel has some very sweet (and life altering EPIC) moments...
