Week 44 of 2021
Greetings all
Another new release this week! Talons & Talismans II is here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09L44T5XW/.
I’m so pleased with the Talons & Talismans project. We put out 30 great stories encompassing over 260,000 words. It included some of the biggest names in the industry like Kevin J. Anderson and Rick Partlow along with a number of authors who published their first story like Rich Hailey and Elowyn Fahnestock.
It also jumpstarted the Eldros Legacy, New Mythology Press’s shared fantasy setting.
In short, these anthologies did everything I wanted and I’m so thankful to all who were a part of it, from authors, editors, artists, and especially, the readers of New Mythology Press. Special thanks to DJ Butler for giving me a two-part story, one for each anthology.
By the way, Talons & Talismans I is here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/product/B09HQZDR4W.
But writing never stops, or at least it shouldn’t. I made good progress with The Door Into Winter, though the number of words added won’t seem like much. I realized I needed to tighten up a number of plot holes, which took some time. I’m much happier with where I’m at right now and I expect I’ll crank out quite a bit next week.
I’m also about to start a couple of short stories. One, of course, will be my next Nick Patara, PI story for all of you on my mailing list. Then I have a chance, if I can meet the deadline, for a really cool project. Not to mention immediately after The Door Into Winter I have promised two more short stories and I finally will bring you all a new Edward mystery.
I love that I have so much I get to write. And with that, I better throw some words at the page.
What I’m Listening To
Rush in Rio. Great album to write to.
Quote of the Week
Happy Veterans Day to all who served. Thank you very much.
“The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.”
