Book 4: The Editing Continues

Editing for Book 4 continues. I'm now a little more than two-thirds of the way through the second draft for the novel, with a total word count of 99,000 as of today. At the end of the first draft, it may be recalled, I was at 78,000 words.

For me, the first draft is always very rough. The second draft has to add a lot of scenes and material to fill in any gaps. Still much to do, but making progress.

Author Interview in the Faerie Review


As an author, I find it's always a joy to talk about my writing and the projects I am working on. I am grateful to Lily and the Faerie Review for taking the time to sit down with me this past week.

Storm's Gate Featured on the Faerie Review


It was wonderful to see Liliyana Shadowlyn's review of Storm's Gate, Book 3 of the Stormfall Chronicles, earlier today.  To quote briefly from the review:

I’ve enjoyed following Lynette, Baxter and Eirlon over the last two books, and getting to continue their adventures with them has been a delight. . .  
There's a lot on the line, and you'll be turning pages, wanting to know what's coming next. Definitely recommend for fantasy adventure lovers!

So glad she's been enjoying the series. Liliyana's review and website and be found under the links below.
