Undermountain Book 2 Update

If you've been following my Facebook page, you already know that book 2 is in the hands of beta readers. This is a very important milestone. It means the story is done and I've put it through a couple revision passes. The beta readers will give me incredibly important feedback on how the story flows, if events seem logical, and hopefully catch any pesky continuity issues.

I'm very happy with how this book is turning out. I've already got the cover art underway and have a very high degree of confidence that the book will come out on schedule.

Also, if you'd like a physical copy of Undermountain, you can get it on Amazon or from my website. It's cheaper on Amazon, but it's signed if you order it directly from moi.

Update: Undermountain in Paperback and More

We've been working hard on the trade paperback version of Undermountain. I was hoping it would be for sale this week, but we hit a snafu with the cover art and some errors introduced to during typesetting. All this is going to delay the project by at least two more weeks. No one is more frustrated by this than me, but there's nothing I can do about it.

The good news is that I just updated the progress bar for Undermountain II (that's just a working title, BTW) to 67%. This is based on an expected word count of 90,000 words. Keep in mind that UM 1 was just over 100k words, so I might get to 100% before I'm done. This is why I'm a writer and not in a career that requires lots of math!

I'm also planning an overhaul of this website. Right now it's just a generic blogger template. I've got some artwork coming that should help zjeuzj the site up. Don't know when that's going to happen, but hopefully sometimes this spring.

In other news, my home has been puppied!

Meet Lucky, a uniquely colored Brittany!
