Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ

I really should figure out how to link my website blog to here, so I am not doing two posts almost alike!

I have switched out the order of my upcoming books, and for my fans, wanted to clarify what is upcoming and what has been moved.

1. A Band of Dogs (Christmas 2025)
2. TMA: Generations Lost (early 2025)
3. The Message (Summer 2025)
4. Naploeon and Elizabeth (2025?)
5. Mirror Friend (2025?)
6. RS: The Last of the Lion Hunters (2026)

I have not written much on Mirror Friend, but it is one moving up in my list. I like the concept and Idea and have enough notes on it to start writing. It may be a 2025 release, not sure yet. It is not a kids book, but would be for 18 and above. As well Napoleon and Elizabeth. Where I see Napoleon and Elizabeth as a fantasy/thriller, I see Mirror Friend as Horror/Fiction, but Horror is really too strong of a word because it's really not.

A couple of changes since I last posted. I want to try to work in a true children's book this year. My son during the summer rescued a tadpole that only had two front legs - it never grew the hind legs. It is now a small tree frog that has connected with my son and lives a very happy life. It is a story I would like to tell of their bond, but also about the frog's amazing ability to overcome.

Also, I am getting a lot more positive feedback on The Sun Also Sets than I did on Of Times and Places compared to the same time period. I have all my thoughts and notes ready to go for book two, which will be The Last of the Lion Hunters. This may get bumped up as well.

So for those interested...here is the new order (which will probably change again : ):

1. A Band of Dogs (Christmas 2024)
2. Climber Jr. (New Year 2024/2025)
3. The Message (Early 2025)
4. TMA: Generations Lost (2025)
5. RS: The Last of the Lion Hunters (2025)

Yes, it is there! I looked on my Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ page and The Marsh Adventures: Generations Lost was seen!

Normally I plan the release around a specific date or reason, but I have a book signing on April 5 that I wanted to be able to have copies for, so without much fanfare, the second in the series will be available on March 21.

I love the book, its characters, the plot and the storyline. Initially I was saying the book was going to be slightly darker when compared to the first book, Of Times and Places, but I recant that...the second book is a little more serious. There is a difference between the two. But I will let you the readers let me know your thoughts.

So enjoy! The book is a stand-alone book, but if you are going to follow the series, Of Times and Places should be read first, then Generations Lost, even thought it is a prequal.

This is my second book in the Marsh Adventure series, and I plan currently to have eleven, with the goal of writing 1-2 each year over a period of time. I don't start a story until I have about 80% of it ready to go.

Generations Lost is the prequel to Of Times and Places. I won't tell you how far back it goes; you'll figure that out from the book. It does tell the story of Queen Rubyspot, and she is the protagonist in the book. Everything in the story centers around her kingdom, the Kingdom of the Dragonflies, and her reign over the marsh.

The first book will always be my favorite, having evolved from an idea into a one-page story, then to 100 pages, and eventually to around 150 pages. However, I love this book equally as well. I love the characters, the storyline and I love the ending. I hope you, as the reader, will also enjoy this book as much as I did in writing it. I will always be a writer first and a reader second.

So pick up a copy...eBook or paperback. I do have it in an overly expensive hardback version (the cost is out of my control for the hardback), but I always get one copy in hardback for my son to keep. Other than that, I probably wouldn't opt for hardback.

So please enjoy Generations Lost, book 2 in the Marsh Adventures - join the new cast on an old adventure, Queen Rubyspot, Bolo, Oracles, Cisto, Rudd, and many more - to see if the legend was true.
