The first four books in The Sword of the Dragon series are now officially available both on Kindle and in Paperback editions! And I am expanding distribution (as promised) to other retailers and platforms.
As of today, Swords of the Six and Dragon Offspring have also been submitted for publication on the international e-reader Kobo. I hope that this reaches new readers and reacquaints some who have lost track of my writing over the years.
Also, I am in the process of setting up distribution for all of the paperback editions. You will soon be able to purchase at any retailer, online or otherwise, and the titles will also be available to your libraries. I will update you when this takes effect.
It’s here! The special edition of The Phantom’s Blade (The Sword of the Dragon book 4) released on Kindle today.
I am finishing the files to send to the printer for the paperback edition today. With this completed I can focus on writing new books! You can check out the new edition of The Phantom’s Blade by clicking this link.
Book three in my primary fantasy series, The Sword of the Dragon, is finally available both in paperback and on Kindle! Check out the three-book-collection and get ready for next week’s release of book four to match!
You can now purchase the original three books in my series. Next I am going to delve into the writing of book five, In Search Of Dragons.
Despite the craziness resulting from the worldwide spread of COVID-19, this has been a wonderfully productive season for my publishing efforts… and it is going to be extra productive these next couple of weeks! Why? Because my day job has laid me off due to the virus. The doors are closed and I will be home for at least two weeks. What does this mean for my writing, audio, and publishing efforts? An influx of creative time that equals writing and recording heaven for this introvert!
It is time to update you regarding the release of the new edition of Key Of Living Fire, building of my private audio recording studio, recording Swords Of The Six audiobook, and the updated edition of The Phantom’s Blade. Not only that, but having the series all re-released with their matching covers and updated content . . . puts me in position to write the next novels!
The new edition of Key of Living Fire is being published this week. It has been slightly expanded, and of course matches the new covers! Distribution is being set up through Ingram, so you will be able to buy the book anywhere books are sold, whether online or in a brick and mortar like Barnes & Noble. Also, this is being made available on Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo, and others.
The Phantom’s Blade is being released this month as well! There is no real content change to this title, only a redesign to bring it in line with the other books in the series. Like the others, this will become widely available in the next few months, both in print and in ebook formats.
HOME RECORDING STUDIO
The other bit of news is no less exciting. After many hours of careful planning and hard work, I have finally built an audio recording booth. It is tucked in the closet in my office, which makes it easy to record away from the busyness of home life. After all, I have five kids from the ages of two to nine. The recording booth allows me to shut out exterior sounds, keeping the audio clear of interference. It is a simple setup. Just a folding chair and a Blue Yeti microphone on the shelf made for it. Of course, you can see that I have a pop filter set up as well. My greatest challenge is keeping my kids out of it when they are supposed to. They think this is the biggest thing since dark chocolate!
While I am on the subject of audio recording, I have the first three chapters of Swords Of The Six recorded. I thought it would be nice to provide you with a sample, so here it is!
“The Beginning of Things” from SWORDS OF THE SIX
What’s next? With the original novels in The Sword of the Dragon series back in circulation, it is time for me to buckle down and write book five, In Search of Dragons. There are a couple of other writing projects I cannot wait to dig into, including the standalone fantasy novel The Dragon’s Eye Diamond . . .. But I am getting ahead of myself and the first project is In Search of Dragons.
Expect updates from me more frequently this month.
Due to my being home for a couple of weeks (maybe longer) I will be applying many extra hours to 1) publishing Key of Living Fire 2) publishing The Phantom’s Blade 3) recording Swords of the Six audiobook, and 4) finally delving fully into writingIn Search of Dragons (The Sword of the Dragon book 5).
Q: Which project are you most looking forward to?
