All, thank you for the  continued support. For those of you who aren’t aware you can get a copy of Daughter of the Mara for FREE at all major e-book retailers. Please read and review! 

Hi all! Big news regarding Daughter of the Mara (here’s a hint: it involves Amazon). Check it out over on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/daughterofthemara

Hi all-as you may have noticed Daughter of the Mara has gone back into draft mode following the end of its funding cycle yesterday. However this is not the end of the road for Jay’s story. I am currently working on yet another edit with plans to self-publish sometime in late May/early June. Once I have a more firm timeline on that I will send an update her and will also update my Facebook fan page (please check it out if you haven’t already). Once again thank you all so much for your support-it warms my heart to know that this story about a girl with waking nightmares appeals to people other than me :)

Hi all,

 Daughter of the Mara is closing in on 90 pre-orders! Woot! Thank you all for your support and please continue to share this book with anyone who is interested in fantasy stories, nightmares, and strong female characters.

 I love this community and am grateful to Inkshares for the ability to share my work with a group of writers and readers who love fantasy as much as I do. While I may never be as awesome at crowd funding as some of my fellow authors, I’ve come to embrace Inkshares more as place where I can give my work a broader audience than as place to get published. In this vein, I am going to spend less time this month drumming up pre-orders and more time actually writing. It has been months since I’ve touched the second book in the Mara Chronicles, Heir to the Dreamscape, and I am also working on a world building document, which I’ve been calling the Mara Compendium, so I am going to take some time to focus on those. Also, if you haven’t already, please check out the Facebook page for Daughter of the Mara where I will be posting updates on this work as well as interesting items related to the origin of the book. I am also currently updating my website and I will update you all when that process is complete.

 Happy Monday!

Alex

I LOVE THAT COVER!!!!!!

Hi all,

I commissioned a cover for Daughter of the Mara and I just uploaded the final image! Check it out and when you do be sure to pre-order if you haven't already. Less than a month until my campaign is over and I still have a ways to go, so make a new years resolution to support the arts and pre-order Daughter of the Mara.

Thank you all for your support!

Hey everybody,

You may or may not have noticed I got an extension on my campaign deadline-huzzah! I now have until January 10th to reach my pre-order goal which, fingers crossed, should hopefully give me enough time to get to 750. Hopefully the holiday season will also put people in a giving mood :)

Anyways thank you all for your continued support and I hope to post another chapter later this week. And now on to Monday morning and another glorious work week!

Hi all,

I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth! My absence from my campaign is due to the fact that I moved in mid-October and well, trying to run a campaign, work, and move to another city became a bit more than I can handle. While this absence has put a serious dent into my campaign timeline I'm hoping those of you who have already given me support will share this campaign with your friends and family who might also be interested. As for me, well, I suppose it is time to seek out the fantasy fans of Bend, OR.

Thanks again for your support!

Alex
