Daughter of the Mara
Is she crazy or is it all a horrible nightmare she can’t wake up from? Jayashree Atkinson has been told her whole life she’s crazy: after all, most people don’t dream while they’re awake.

A bit earlier than usual, but my weekend has been a bit more hectic than usual.  As a result I'm feeling exhausted enough to where my usual sleeplessness will not be a factor which keeps me up until after sunrise, so since its technically Monday where I am I'll just go ahead and post up the first half of Chapter 1.

Its flow is undoubtedly different than what those of you have read the other chapters I've posted up are used to from me.  More heavy on the exposition and indulgent of my love of world-building, but both are there to show you just where Pentaz comes from and as such the root of his... social issues shall we say?

This first introduction to Pentaz is also to a much more awkward/less capable fellow, as he is but a sheltered young dwarven man of a mere 66 years of age(little more than a teenager by his people's standards).  The last half of Chapter 1 will be posted up on Thursday, and its shows the first of a series of events that force Pentaz to change for both better and worse.

Part 1 of Chapter 2 will be posted next Monday, with the remainder of that Chapter following on Thursday.  I'm looking forward to posting that up, because it is the initial introduction to Buscidia.  Anyway, I'll stop chattering on about things a week or more away and just send this thing out.

Again, thanks to everyone for your support, and hope you enjoy the story now that it'll be coming in the order intended.

    A young princess and others must band together to save their world from imminent ecological collapse in this fantasy-adventure story, reminiscent of Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings and Herbert’s Dune.

    First off I want to thank everyone who has preordered as well as everyone who's followed.  We're now down to 10 weeks left and have a long way to go to reach goal.  Regardless of whether or not that happens any and all support means the world to me, so again I say thank you.

    Today I will be cycling the featured chapter again, this time to 10 part 2, in preparation for next weeks reset to slowly run through the first 6 chapters(and maybe a bit further).

    Tomorrow I will continue what I started last week.  That being the taking of a mini-break from the stress of trying to market this thing, and instead returning to enjoying reading & sharing that enjoyment of others.  There's a lot of good material on here, and so everyone Sunday I'm going to be choosing a book to push in what little ways I can.  Still haven't decided which one will be this Sunday, because its so hard to pick just one.

    Keep reading and writing everyone.
