The best things in life…and my book are free!
For Monday 2/12 and Tuesday 2/13 the eBook of Serpent’s End will be available FREE on the Kindle store. So, if you have any friends that were on the fence about buying it, generally skeptical of dragons (or pirates), or just generally like free things, please let them know about the sale! I’m excited to get the book in as many hands as possible and I have even more good news! Book 2, Ember’s Rise, is coming along faster than expected. Let’s just say April is a great month. Happy Reading!

I can't help but hear "What's next?" in Martin Sheen's voice, and, yes, I have watched way too much of The West Wing. Still, it's an important question when you release the first book of a trilogy. The good news is that Book 2, Ember's Rise, is coming soon!
In true reader fashion, I’ve already heard some interest in Book 2. Just in case you haven’t gotten to the end of Book 1, I’ll keep this spoiler free, but I wanted to let you know that it’s pretty much complete! At present it is roughly the length of Serpent’s End, though I’ll likely trim some fat in the final review process. What’s also exciting for me is that the cover art for Book 2 is being worked on as I write. I can’t wait to see what’s been cooking and I’ll share it with you asap! Serpent’s End has been out for a week now and I exceeded my goal of two hundred sales in the first week! More reviews are also coming in and that’s hugely helpful and (often) a nice morale boost! I’ve said it in some other posts as well, but I’m very grateful to you all for picking up the book and checking it out. In the meantime, I’m still promoting the first book on all the nooks and crannies of the internet interested in a fantasy book about pirates and dragons. If you do know anyone that might be interested, please suggest they check out the book, leave a review, or begin a time deceleration ritual to help me get the next book out faster. All three would be even better! If you want updates on my progress and to stay informed on when my next book is coming out, please sign up for the newsletter! The form is on the bottom of the front page of my website. Thanks again for reading and let me know in the comments what you are most excited to see in Book 2! (Let’s keep it spoiler free for those still sailing on the Ember Sea) I asked my friend, acclaimed author Will Wight (you’ve probably heard of him), to teach me how to write a fantasy novel the summer after the world shut down due to the pandemic in 2020.
It's possible that I should have gone with learning how to bake, but here we are. At the very least, it’s been proven that this was not the cause of the next several months of upended lives and permanent disruption to the Grand Design. I have friends in high places. Trust me. What followed from that fateful request was several years of learning, editing, manic ancient language chanting, and tears of blood. You know, fantasy author stuff. The result is my first book, Serpent’s End! It can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CTPS4R2L I am equal parts excited and nervous to know that people will be reading it. Mostly, I’m glad to get it out of my hands and into yours. That’s the good part. The book is available to purchase digitally for $2.99 on the Amazon Kindle Store or you can grab a physical copy for $16.99. For those of you with Kindle Unlimited, you will also be able to read it that way! The goal of the blog is to keep you updated on what I’m writing, but also to communicate with any people that read the books and find themselves interested in me or the worlds I’ve created. So, if you have questions, please ask them! You can do so in the comments or email me at [email protected]. I also have a Twitter/X, Instagram, and Facebook where I’ll post information about upcoming books and, almost certainly, memes. So, if you found yourself here, welcome! I hope you enjoy the book and I look forward to hearing from you. Happy reading! Lorn |
