"Bring him home, bring him peace, he is alone, he is only a boy."
Wherein Jack talks about Book Two.
Last summer was spent in writing a four part book series. It was a fun way to pass a summer, up in an Airship with some ill temptered Air Pirates, fighting in a daring rebellion. By the end of it all I was sorry to see everyone go - until it came to editing book one and realizing said rebellion fighters hadn't told me their complete story. I don't know why this surprised me as it is a common fact with my writing.
On finishing book one, I discovered so many small changes had taken place in the plot that I had to re-write the three other books. I didn't complain, I would rather re-write then edit anyhow. So, after the holidays I dusted off my trusty lap top and began. I am now up to chapter eight, have two editors - YES! I have really good editors this time! - and a plan. I even have a release date.
However, before I reveal some of the book two things with you, I have other writing information.
Awhile ago I mentioned another series I've been working on for years. A series which came to life the day two friends declared a book couldn't be titled The Broken Blade. I've a love for swords, and such a title appealed to me, as well as a plot which had been simmering in the back of my mind for ages. A plot in which someone goes on a quest to find a sword. After lots of thought and work, I have finally come up with a working plot to go with the title. And this year my goal is to finally finish this series. (It is the longest living project I have. Most I write the moment I think them up, or a few years later.) I shall be revealing information on this during the next few months. I will not be setting myself a publication date for this series yet, right now my goal is to just get them written. I will, however, open up the book page for this series again and be introducing you all to some of the characters.
Now that you know some of the things coming this year, I will share some news about...well, you know.
As of right now, it has a title, but I am not certain it will be the one which stays. So we shall call it a Working Title Which Will Very Likely Be The End Title.
Abolished Impracticality
Work has always begun on publishing, in other words plans are in the works for the trailer and book cover. And there is a reason behind all of this coming out so soon. And it all has to do with the release date. Which I'm going to be evil about and keep secret just a bit longer - along with the summery. Summery because I am still working on it. I should have it ready by next week - which seems like a good time to reveal the publication date.
Before I go, I set up a page for The Broken Blade, which you can find HERE. Also, I've a special reveal coming on Friday. Oh yes, and a new author picture, which should be here tomorrow. (An author picture which nearly caused my arms to freeze and fall off. *Nods*)
*** What do you all think of the title? Would it perk your curiosity, or cause you to giggle?
Title quote is from some famous musical which I was FINALLY able to go and see. (And you should all be proud of me - I somehow manged NOT to sing along during it. Somehow. Barely.)
Allons-y!
