The Week’s Accumulation xliv
Home Sweet Home! It’s good to be back to what passes for normal in this writer’s life. My own chair. My usual walks. My comfort zone. This has been a surprisingly productive week, but mostly in the editing department. Still, I’ll do an art splurge and share a sketch and some new finished pieces today. Take a look!
This week’s accumulation:
♦ So far, my time at home has been packed with edits. My lovely editor over at Zondervan sent me the manuscript for Book 3: The Broken Window for a final review, and I enjoyed my read-through of that next installment in the Threshold Series. I’m probably as eager as readers for it to come out in September! As soon as I finished that, I jumped right into a reread of my manuscript for Book 4, which is the final installment in the series. I’ll be turning it over to my editors very soon … a prospect that makes me jittery and excited all at once.
♦ Angels All Around. I’ll mention again that the free illustrated Threshold Series prequel is still very much available. If you haven’t downloaded this short story yet, please do! Story Summary: Angels and demons collide over West Edinton, a small town where not everyone is what they seem. In this companion story to the Threshold Series, a divine Messenger becomes one little girl’s prince, and a fledgling Guardian becomes their knight. A longer summary, cast list, and art gallery are here.
♦ Those of you who’ve been reading the Threshold Series know that the members of Jedrick’s Flight are currently searching for a kidnapped comrade. Poor Ephron is languishing in the clutches of the enemy … and he’s somewhat worse for the wear. But I have a few pieces of art in the works that give you a glimpse of his “before.” This is the sketch phase of one artist’s version of Ephron…
♦ And lastly, I’ll point you toward the new art that was added to the galleries here this week. The first is in the section for The Hidden Deep, a bookmark that features the two Caretakers in Jedrick’s Flight. The second is in the Rough and Tumble section, a portrait of Conrad, Ethan’s mentor.
So what’s cluttering up your desktop? Do tell!
