Followers!
There are a lot of you. I don’t know where you are, but if any of you happen to be attending Rose City Comic Con today, I’ll be there. Come findd me and say hi! I look like this:
If find me, say "Molemen Rising." First three to do so get a prize! Hurry! They’re heavy!
Dearest Sparks, Flames and Wildefires, we are bouncing between 9th and 10th place in the contest. Thank you all so very much for keeping us on the leaderboard! As of right now I have 110 pre-orders which is AMAZING! The gaps between the top three spots in the contest and the rest of us are growing every day, but we are well on the way to the Quill publishing goal, which will make sure that all of my backers get their copies, and distribution through Amazon.com.
So, keep sharing and talking about the book with your friends! If all of my followers convinced just one other person to order their own copy, then we’ll be published!
To make that a bit easier, I have set up a few social media outlets. An author page on Facebook, a twitter account, and an instagram. I’ll be sharing updates there as well, some concept art, and some bonus materials as they come into play. So follow, like, and share!

Here on Inkshares one of my fellow authors have been doing their best to keep people talking about all the books on the leaderboard. Joey Angotti’s had a play-by-play of the contest posted every week on the forums. He comments with humor and kindness about each entry. He has fun with it, and it’s not something he has to do at all.
Here’s the latest entry: https://www.inkshares.com/forum_threads/g-s-contest-the-story-so-far-part-6
Parts 1-5 are posted too! Joey’s comments about my prologue in the first one made me cry tears of happiness. You can review his own book A Soldier’s Crest on Amazon.com and give him a boost there as well!
In closing, I’m polishing up Chapter two and sending it to my beta-readers this weekend. I hope to post it soon!
Thank you for all that you’ve done. I know we all know one other fantasy book reader. See if you can talk them into checking out Flames in the Dark! If you’re following, but you haven’t ordered your own copy yet, it’s just $10 for a Spark (e-book) and $20 for a Flame (paperback and e-book), a Wilde Fire option let’s you order 3 or more paperbacks plus the e-book, and you get your name printed in the back!
Light and Love Always,
Tara
