Hi there!
I sincerely apologize for my absence, and feel I owe a bit of explanation.
So, what had happened was, the world exploded, and I ended up very very burnt out. I was plugging along, working hard at getting book 2 written and then through its first round of edits, so I could hand it off to my editor for review. I’ve done that, and then I dove right into the arms of crafting, in an effort of building back up some of my candle.
I’ve learned a few things in the last few months, about my own pace, passion, and drive.
First, regarding book 2 – It IS with my editor, and the cover is done and ready! It’s currently roughly the same length as book 1 in the word count (around 120,000 words), and I feel very good about the direction of the story, the character progression, and I really can’t wait for you to read it!
Second, regarding my re-building my candle – I’m feeling much better, over all. Therapy is a wonderful thing, and can make all the difference in the world, when/if you’re willing and able to work on yourself. I have grown to be the adult that child-me would have sought out for support, and that makes me no end of proud.
Third, Some news – I have new book ideas! I know, I know. no surprise there. I’ve started work while I work through the publishing process with Book 2 of the Mortal Scales Trilogy, and I’m excited to share that with you, once I get a little further along.
Last, as I promised previously, I will be back to posting every other week, sharing snap shots of things I’m working on, and don’t worry, I still plan to share some of the information about different creatures from the Mortal Scales mythology!
Thank you for all your support!
