Just want to update on a few things.
1. One more detail from my time at UtopYA. Here’s a podcast by The Roundtable from the convention. Give it a listen.
2. I’ll be going a little silent as I work out some details of Soriel, Book 1 of Starfire Angels: Revelations. Writing isn’t easy, and this one is a difficult case. I’m on the right track now, after rewriting the main character and taking out some scenes/chapters that slowed it down. I’m fussy about what works for me and now I’m much happier, but I still have to figure out where the story will go, even though I know what issues need to be resolved. There are a couple of possible ways to take this, so I’m not yet sure on a few things. Sometimes I don’t know until the end. The story always surprises me, one way or the other.
3. Congratulations to the winners of my Forever Dark giveaway on Goodreads. I’ll be sending out books today.
4. If you want any of my books, be sure to email me with your entry on the choose-your-book giveaway. I’ll be drawing one lucky winner on August 23rd. Simply send me an email with the subject of GIVEAWAY to melanie_nilles @ yahoo . com (remove the spaces) with the title of one of my books that you would like to receive if your name is chosen in a random drawing. It’s that easy.
5. I’ll be doing another giveaway for a FULL SET of Starfire Angels: Dark Angel Chronicles paperbacks on Goodreads. Keep your eyes open for that. I’ll post links on Facebook and Twitter.
6. I’m planning the second Demon Age novel now to start after I finish Soriel. I plan to make this one available next summer/fall sometime. It will focus on Nadia and bring out a lot of her history of training to be a demon hunter.
7. Summer’s halfway done. What are you doing online? Make the most of it and go get some reading done
