So What is New and Upcoming with My Writing???

Morning all, after my rant about Star Wars Yesterday, I decided to do a bit of a nicer one (well I have been writing a letter to my local newspaper about the destruction of one of my gardens by some morons who were installing fibre optic cables and such, but that is another story).
Anyway, this year is going to be I hope a good year with what is left.  We are in May already.  Well I do have plans for releasing quite a bit of new material, and I will post a page off the old website, with some sneak previews.

One of the big things I've been working on lately is a novel called Saba'tah of the Endless Winds.  This story takes place over a few hundred years and brings a lot of my characters together in a light that, well you just don't get to see in my other novels or stories.  It is co-written with Trevor Patrick.  It is one of those stories that well in a way defines the world I created and links up many of the story lines, some of which you haven't been exposed to yet.  In short, it is not quite a coming of age story, but rather how one man learns a lot about himself and compassion for others that have literally terrorized him.   This is the first book of this series and it may be quite some time before another one comes out.

Also this year, is Anthology of the Guardians:  Huntercats.  It is the next installment in this series and it focuses a lot on the culture and society of the Pruchocks.  But in building the society, comes the biology of such creatures, which I can tell you both Trevor and I debated quite a bit.  This was the first story he co-authored with me and it was what got him interested in the world I created. In this story, we also see how a man can learn to respect and love his enemy too.

Later this year will see two more entries in the Triumvirate Chronicles.  The first one, Conquest and Liberation, a novella, will fill in the details of some events between Desperation and Triumvirate (Book 2).  In it we see the struggles of free Lonsatia and how an immortal begins to deal with the fact he really is dying.  The true antagonist is also introduced and we see how he deals with Veloxora.   

The second installment of the Triumvirate Chronicles will see the further decline of the Territories and their struggles to survive.  New characters are brought in, while old ones must face the truth about what is really happening and who is behind this invasion.  If I say much more, it will give too many spoilers, but look soon for a sneak peak.

Finally, another project I am writing is tentatively called Immortal Assassins, and to paraphrase Ron White, I have to tell you one story, to tell you the other.  Basically one part of this story is set in the time frame between Desperation and Conquest and Liberation.  Assassins, long thought dead, make an appearance and try to kill William Savage and other important figures in the Territories.  The thing is, these assassins track by DNA.  Savage, having faced them in another lifetime, as a mortal, remembers those events.  So the story is broken into two pieces and introduces the feared assassin Bill Pralla, who is, in one form or another, still alive in William Savage.

There are others, but this is enough on what I look to get out this year. I will mention that I'll most likely be at a few cons this year pedaling my wares.   Perhaps I will see some of you there.

Hmm one of these just doesn't belong.  Might be

the red one!!
