The End of an Era

aybe it’s because I spent so long discussing Goddess of Carnage and because I’ve spent the better part of 2012 working on it, but it’s actually hard to believe that I’m on the final Secrets of Witches novel. With Bridge of Memories I knew there were two more after that, and with Goddess of Carnage I knew that there was still one more novel to go before it was all over but now… this is it. It’s the end of the line and it’s still very surreal to think about. I’ve thought about how I would feel when it was all over and when I finally got to the final book and I have to say, it’s not really like I imagined. Maybe I’ll be more emotional when it hits me, after all I’ve been working on this storyline and with these characters for a decade but while a part of me is stunned, I’m actually also very glad that it’s finally coming to an end. I’ve enjoyed writing this storyline and in the end it’s definitely come out far better than I ever could have imagined ten years ago, if not far darker and crazier, and I have to say I wouldn’t change it for the world.

Ultimately, I know that this is only the beginning. Sure, Secrets of Witches is finally coming to an end, but now I can move on to bigger and better things, and that part of all of this makes it incredibly exciting. It’s a new kind of adventure that I can’t wait to go on, and I hope that all of you will be coming with me. In the meantime, I still have quite a bit of work to go before book 3 is finished…. come to think if it, I should probably get back to that.
