Release of my First Set of Short Stories

I just released on Amazon my first set of short stories that go along with my first full length novel set in the Three Moons Realm.  For a brief synopsis you can check out my other blog here or you can look over at the page on Amazon here.  As this is more of my author blog, I don’t want to go to much into detail about the actual stories, but I did have a great deal of fun writing them.

As I mentioned in my last post, these five characters started off as minor pieces of the world I created and were just a pet project that I worked on when I didn’t have enough time to sit down and really right for my first novel.  But as I developed their characters and integrated them more into the cultures and lives of the Three Moons Realm, they became just as important to me as the main characters in my main novel.  I always try to have an idea of what my minor characters are doing as my main character moves through the plot, but now I’m looking at those minor characters backgrounds, motivations, and desires which in turn helps me understand my main characters more.

So again, these short stories I hope have helped me become a better writer.  How knows, before my first novel is done I might have another set of short stories to release.  Overall though, I am happy with these stories and am starting to finally feel like a real writer.  Please check them out and if you do, please leave your honest feedback.  The best way for me to grow as a writer is to hear where I’m going right and where I’m going wrong.  Thanks!
