Happy Holidays

4 Comments

Well, it’s over already for many of you. I’ve been absent for much of the holiday season. Not gone in the physical sense. Gone because I bought myself a Wii at the beginning of the month and have gotten lost in Epic Mickey.

Despite that, I’ve managed to get A Rose is a Rose polished up and sent to the editor. So that’ll be out for Valentine’s Day. And because I’m done with that, I’m back to work on Reverb. No, don’t ask me about other stories. I NEED to get this one done. I’ve delayed it way too long and the powers that be have been way too nice to me about it.

Anyway, back to the happy holidays. I hope everyone reading this and everyone they love is having/has had a lovely holiday season and is looking forward to a hopeful, happy new year!

(BTW, my apologies for no holiday story or image this year. Blame the Wii and my need to turn off my brain for a bit)

Questions about Indigo Knights

4 Comments

Since I seem to be getting a lot of random questions in a lot of different places, let me see if I can’t answer some of the most asked questions in one easier to find place.

Question: When is book 2 coming out?

Answer: Don’t know. Really. Haven’t started writing it and I’ve got at least 2, possibly 3 projects to finish before I can get to it. I hope for 2011 but I’m not sure.

Question: When is Squire coming out in print?

Answer: Looks like books 1 and 2 will be packaged together like books 1 and 2 of Heaven Sent. So the answer to the print question depends on the answer to when book 2 is coming out. See above.

Question: Is book 2 Danny’s story?

Answer: Don’t think so. I’m pretty sure book 2 is Lance’s story. Unfortunately, I didn’t think ahead to include more than a mention of him in book 1. Sorry.

Question: Will you write short interludes for the Indigo Knights like you did for Heaven Sent?

Answer: Don’t know. The shorts were each written for a holiday call that Loose Id put out that year — 2007, I believe — and the timing just happened to be right to provide one for each of the couples. I’m not against writing the shorts and I know they’re neat but the timing is off this time. How about “maybe”? I’ll add an “I’ll try”.

Question: Will you put out a T-shirt for Indigo Knights like you did for Heaven Sent?

Answer: I’d like to. If so, it probably won’t happen until all four main books are done, at least.

Question: Will you release any more artwork for Indigo Knights/Heaven Sent?

Answer: Again it has to be “don’t know”. Remember, I’m not the artist for HS/IK. If I want artwork, I have to pay for it. PL Nunn is a wonderful and generous artist who has yet to provide me with anything less than stunning, but I have to wait until it’s the right time. I can’t afford all the lovely artwork I’d love to commission and I can’t monopolize her time.

OK, that’s all the questions I can think of at the moment. Any more?
