Hey all,

I'm working on giving some TLC to the website and expanding it in some ways. Stay tuned for more features and regular blog updates.

Novella 1:

The first novella is coming along extremely well, and I am already sending chapters to Bonnie, my editor. This book introduces three new characters in an unexplored kingdom within Thorns, Feathers & Bones, and it ends by tying directly into the events of Book 2, Blood, Wine & Steel.

These characters are incredible and are already fighting for their place among my favorites. This story is tightly focused, with a pace that moves without feeling like we're rushing. It will serve as a great entry point into TFAB for new readers, and a deeply rewarding adventure for those returning to the world...... especially those with attentive ears and watchful eyes ;)

The reveal trailer is ready to go and will be released this month in May. I have not decided on the exact date yet, but it is awesome.

Blood, Wine & Steel:

Still writing, albeit a bit slower because of the novella, but we are on track. I would even say potentially ahead of schedule for next year’s release. I am not quite ready to share much beyond this, but the cast from Book One returns as the world continues to change, in part due to Reh’gara dropping the veil. I'll share more deets in the future..but it is crazy from the first page.

There is something I am introducing in Book Two that feels foundational to the genre, but is presented in a very new and exciting way that will explode in book 3.  I think you are going to love it!

Novella 2: It will pick up directly from Blood, Wine & Steel and lead into Book 3. Novella 4 will do the same for Book 4. The goal with these novellas is to explore existing concepts and stories, or introduce new ones, through a more focused lens with a smaller cast. I am keeping them to two or three points of view at most. 

I cannot give much away yet, but the first novella explores concepts from Book One that I wish I had more time to dive into in TFAB...but I didn't want to release a 1200 page book :)

MISC: All of the novella covers are already completed and hanging on my wall as metal posters. So when I start doing interviews, see what you can peek :D 

 I cannot wait to show you. You're going to geek at all of them.

Have a great week,
