I’m happy to report the relaunch of Rock Gods & Messy Monsters was successful — probably because of the change in the book cover and having someone more knowledgeable doing Facebook and Amazon ads. (I gave up trying to figure them out…) I’ve been selling some copies — way more than I had been. Not enough to pay rent (yet!), mind you, but it’s always nice to see that someone is reading the book.

Book 2 Update — Fallen Spirits & The Mind Monsters Series

NEWS ALERT: Fallen Spirits is the title for the second book. And the overall book series will be titled The Mind Monsters Series.

There will definitely be three books, possibly more. It depends on how long Alex’s inner journey takes. And the intergalactic AI-fueled battle of the billionaires….

I was so blown away by the positive response from the editor I hired. This was her take on the work -

“It was a pleasure and an honor to read and edit such a finely crafted novel. Your characters, plot, and themes drew me in from start to finish. There’s also so much heart in the book-from the characters themselves and from you. I love the themes of empathy, courage, self-introspection, and self-re-creation that are prevalent throughout the novel as well. You have a fantastic skill for suspense and intrigue, and you know how to create a rich world and draw your readers into it so they feel what your characters are feeling and cheer for them along the way. I feel that once you incorporate the revisions from this edit, you’ll have a tightly woven, very rich novel that will appeal to lovers of science fiction novels-a marvelous book that I hope with all my heart will garner you many readers.”

I know! I’m still in shock. Fingers crossed she’s right!….

The book itself should be done by the end of this year (I’m in final edits now), but cover design and all the marketing setup (like getting reviews, putting blurbs together, getting it sorted out on Amazon, etc) takes more time than you’d think. So I’m probably looking at a release in mid-to-late March.
