Griffin Mage: Please Move / Write A Review

Okay, so you know what happened today? The new editions of The Griffin Mage trilogy went live on Amazon. They, that is the new editions, do not have ANY reviews or ratings because they are NEW EDITIONS. Amazon does not connect new editions to old, or at least, not when the publisher switches from publisher to author.

Here is The Griffin Mage Trilogy Omnibus, OLD edition, with a fair number of reviews.

Here is Lord of the Changing Winds, OLD edition, with some reviews; and HERE is Lord of the Changing Winds, NEW edition

Here is Land of the Burning Sands, OLD edition, with some reviews, and HERE is Land of the Burning Sands, NEW edition

Here is Law of the Broken Earth, OLD edition, with some reviews, and HERE is Law of the Broken Earth, NEW edition

If you ever wrote a review for any or all of these books, please take a moment to copy these reviews over to the new editions. If you’ve read them, but never wrote a review, this would be a nice time for you to write a review. I would greatly appreciate it! I would like to run a promotion for the new-edition trilogy, but I can’t until there are a reasonable number of reviews. I mean: a lot of promotion sites literally will not accept a book for promotion unless it has some number of reviews.

So that’s the first thing! Now, on to the ordinary Monday update:

So, for Silver Circle #3, I have now:

–lightly tweaked chapter one.

–heavily revised chapter two, chapter three, and chapter four.

–lightly revised chapter five, cut in in half, and moved part of it into a new chapter seven

–heavily revised chapter six.

–moved chapters around.

–revised chapter nine.

–written a brand-new chapter ten. I mean, it’s a short chapter. But it wasn’t there and now it is.

–moved chapters around some more.

–revised chapters eleven and twelve.

–overall, I’ve cut 15,000 words and also added 15,000 words, which sometimes happens, I suppose. It is sitting at almost precisely 150,000 words at this point, which means I’ve cut and replaced 10% of the total length. SO FAR. It will definitely get trimmed back at the sentence level, but I will also definitely be adding to it — I still definitely intend to write two scenes, currently absent, and also I need to write chapter 25, which is currently just not there at all, and finish the epilogue. I expect it to arrive at a minimum of 160,000 words eventually. Probably more, given the way everything expands. I will just pause here to note that this means SILVER CIRCLE will most likely go a bit past 400,000 words inclusive, so though it seems to be taking FOREVER to finish, well, that’s why.

REALLY SOON, I should hit at least a few chapters that barely get tweaked, and I have to say, I’m sure looking forward to that. Obviously, I am not ready to send this book to early readers today. Maybe this time next week.
