Well, I’ve been getting a lot of queries from fans about the new project. I have to be a little careful, because I’m still in the early stages of writing and I don’t thnk my agent would like me spilling too much before it even gets sold, but I can toss out a few tidbits for you wonderful people.
First off, it’s fantasy (duh).
Second, it’s a series. Looking like it will be four books. It will feature all new characters and situations. As much as I love the Shadow Saga with Caim and Kit and Josey, I needed to go in a different direction. So I’ll be introducing you to new characters whom you’ll (hopefully) love just as much.
It’s epic. As many of you will know, the Shadow Saga took on a more epic form as the series progressed, and I’m building on that to launch this new series. The basic premise is a fish-out-of-water combined with blood magic, insane God-Kings, internicene warfare, and violence. (The lovely ultraviolence, as little Alex might say.)
So where do we stand? Well, first, you need to go out and buy Shadow’s Master, if you haven’t already! Then, you’ll need to be a little patient. I’m not a quick writer. Especially with a new series, I need the time to work it out in my head, and then on the electronic page. But I promise not to be Martin-esque in my delivery of the good. 😉
