Brian Fitzpatrick liked an update for Curio Citizen
Hello all!
I hope everyone is well during these bizarre and difficult times. My family and I have been doing our part by sheltering-in-place since March and wearing masks during trips to the grocery store. I didn’t know I would become a home-school teacher all of a sudden, but we’re making it work! I’m optimistic that we can all get through this if we stick with recommended safety measures, and I hope you all stay safe and well!
Despite the general life upheaval, "Curio Citizen" and other aspects of my writing career are going great! I am about to turn in my newest draft of "Curio Citizen," and I will keep the updates coming as the project progresses. I am confident that each round of edits is improving the story, and I’m excited to share it with you all.
I am also thrilled to announce that back in January, my dark fantasy novel "Lodestone" got a traditional publishing deal! In my last update, I mentioned that I was querying publishers and agents, and my hard work and persistence paid off. In addition, I recently found out that "Lodestone" was a Top 25 Finalist in the Launch Pad Manuscript Competition after being assessed by a panel of judges from the film/tv entertainment industry.
I’d LOVE to fill you all in on the many projects I have going on, (including a short ghost story that will be included in a horror anthology this fall), so I invite you to follow my author accounts on social media. I will be creating an email newsletter soon for those who prefer updates that way. I will continue to post all "Curio Citizen"-related updates here as well.
If you choose to follow one (or more) of my social media accounts, you’ll be just in time for "Lodestone"’s cover reveal next week! Let me just say that the artwork is AMAZING, and I’m excited for an April 2021 release.
Thank you once again for your continued interest and support! I love you all!

    Brian Fitzpatrick liked an update for Lost in the Fog

    Aloha All,

    I hope this Lost in the Fog update finds you all safe and well.  While our world has been upended by a dangerous and awful virus, I’m choosing to focus on whatever positive news I can get.  Thankfully, there is plenty if you seek it out. 

    First off, the healthcare workers all over the world are such amazing heroes, and I cannot say enough thanks to all of those amazing humans. I think of that great quote from Mr. Rogers, who was told by his Mom when he saw scary things as a kid to “look for the helpers”.  There are so many incredible helpers right now saving lives and we need to salute them every day.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    I also love that there are millions of people around the globe protesting and taking a stand against racism.  I wish the despicable things that propelled this movement never happened, and I pray for the family and friends of all of the victims.  But so wonderful that the world is changing because of this moment.   

    After pondering all of this important stuff, I’m tempted to end this post here. 

    But as this is an update for all the terrific people who pre-ordered my novel, I’ll quickly share some good news.   I just heard back from the amazing people at Inkshares (my publisher), and while they are not yet reopened because of the pandemic, they hope to do so soon.  

    And I was informed Lost in the Fog will be released in August.

    I’m so happy that the book you all graciously ordered long ago will finally be in your hands and e-reader devices very soon.  I hope you’ll find it fun, mysterious, entertaining, suspenseful, and well-written.  When I get a specific August release date, I’ll share it with you as soon as I know.   But for now, lets celebrate this positive news!
