Deadly Illusion

After three MAJOR false starts (about 13000 words worth) I think I finally worked out what was going wrong and how to make it right. Derek is talking to me now and I know where the story is going to end two books from now. I think I've made the right choice this time. I'll keep ya'll posted.

New Series

I thought after I finished Two Suns I would want to write Between Worlds...I meant for Between Worlds to be the capstone of the Highland Home and East Hampton Trilogies.
Madam Muse, is a fickle thing though, and while I'm struggling to sketch out Between Worlds, the idea for a new series came to me and the first book is sketched out.
Just at the Highland Home and East Hampton Trilogies intertwine with each other the Midland Heights books will touch the other trilogies at some point...likely coming to an end where Two Suns stops...giving the characters the place they need to be a part of Between Worlds.

There are other differences in these books from the first two trilogies, the most significant is the main character is a male. I hope you love Derek and root for him from page one. I know that even though I haven't yet written his tale, he will become as dear to me as the characters from Highland Home and East Hampton have.

Enjoy the cover and preview it gives you while I go off to get started on the last chapter so I can write the book :) (I write the last chapter of my books first, and then go back to the beginning).

Two Suns First Draft Done!

This was a tough one for me. I know that when I edit, there will be a lot more added to this book, but the first draft is done.

Next on the list is to sketch out Between Worlds. I am still editing Seven Days and will work on Between Worlds when I have the sketch done.

I need a drink! LOL

Two Suns

So I finished the rough, rough, rough draft of Nine Lives today. Of course that means roughing out the sketch of the next book (book six in the series). I've written the last chapter already and I think this one will surprise my readers.
Let me introduce you to Iceni and Malachai. I hope you love them as I do.

Don't forget to get your copy of Mourning Sun, the first book of the series at Amazon.com (paperback or kindle) or Smashwords (all eBook formats) or Barnes and Noble for your Nook.

Win a Signed Copy of Mourning Sun

If you have question, feel free to drop me a line at sharirichardson@astralplanepublishing.com

Nine Lives

I wrote the end of this one today and I cried. The rest of the book is sketched out and ready to roll. This is the second of Xavier and Kerry's books. I hope you look forward to it and much as I look forward to writing it.

Progress

Seven Days is at just under 11,000 words. I'm happy with that. I have really rough sketches for Nine Lives and Two Suns, as well as plans for some short stories to give more details for certain events from different points of view. Holy cow...it's all rolling.
