Hey all followers, friends, and so forth.
I know it's been a while since I last did much over here on Deviant. It's been a rather hectic year. From medical emergencies, funerals, work related stress, radio drama stress, and working on writing original compositions, it's been a really crazy and full year. But I wanted to let you all know that I'm still alive and kicking!
This year, I published my second book, Kas. It's sort of a "Alice down the rabbit-hole" mixed with "Beauty and the Beast" kind of tale, with elements of "what the crap is going on?" mixed in. Not a read for someone who wants just a bit of fluff, but a mental challenge of sorts. Not everyone can handle it, as I've learned.
And I'm working on getting my third book ready for publication. You can see the promo for it in my "featured" gallery, because I just posted it. This new book is the first of three planned, all the same epic story. It was just too long to tell in one go, kinda like Lord of the Rings, only modern and dragons. It's called Tarragon: Key Keeper, and comes out in April, though I'll be doing a cover reveal in February, which is when I'll, hopefully, post the cover art here as well. We'll see.
Here's the blurb:
For hundreds of years, the gates of Tarragon have been sealed from the outside. Prophecy speaks of the day the last Key Keeper will return and wake the dragons from their spell-cast slumber, returning them to their rightful home.
Seeking to fulfill her father's dying wish, Anwen Porter travels to the Drakonii Mountains where she meets Tyler, a mysterious local with a secret. With his help, she learns more about her clouded past and her own abilities. But when Courtney, a lovesick mage, tries to insert herself into their plans, things begin to go horribly wrong.
With death threatening at every turn, Anwen must learn to rely on her newfound friends to survive. But how can she unravel the mystery of her heritage when everything is trying to kill her?
Any who, just wanted to wish everyone a belated Merry Christmas and an early Happy New Year!
