What's Next?

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)
