Orders, Faoii! Listen up!

We’re 9 days away from the official release of our tale, and 10 days away from the launch party I’ll be hosting here in the beautiful Montana. I think we’ve earned a celebration, don’t you? This was a hard-earned victory, and every triumph is deserving of a divine feast and ever-flowing mead (or in this case some delicious cake and tea/coffee).  You’ve earned this, Faoii. Set your shields down for a moment and revel for a while.

However, don’t put your Fantoii blade up on your wall, quite yet. We’ve raised a worthy army, it’s true, but I told you in the beginning that someday the world will know of us. They will know of our army and our battle cries. No one can escape the Choir, but we’re not there. Yet.

You can’t post a review on Amazon until October 3, but we already have 2 reviews on Goodreads, and that’s a good start. As you read our tale, I hope you’ll be willing to tell the world what you think of it. Good reviews are the only way the word will spread (Amazon’s algorithm in particular needs a hefty number of reviews before anyone will see it) and all other reviews will help me to become a better writer. In the end, any review at all is going to strengthen our army. I still need you on that battlefield, Faoii. And I look forward to fighting beside you. This isn’t over yet.

Greetings, Faoii!

Our warriors have started sending in reports that they’ve received their books! After six long years, The Last Faoii is real, and I almost can’t contain my joy at its existence. As always, I have you to thank for this.  Thank you so much for your continued support. I can’t believe we made this possible.

Don’t forget-- the absolute BEST thing you can do for The Last Faoii now is to leave reviews on Amazon and Good Reads. Good reviews are the best way to make sure that word about our army spreads, and not-as-good reviews are the best way for me to learn to be a better writer in the future. Everyone has an opinion. I truly want to hear yours.

I couldn’t have gotten this far without you, Faoii, but I know that I still have a long journey ahead of me. Please be a part of it. There are still more battles on the horizon.

Shields up. I can’t believe we did it!

Hello, everyone! 

Hope you all are doing well. It has been over a year now since I first came to this site hoping to finally make something off of a lifetime dream. It has been a rocky road and is taking longer than the goal I had set for myself but, what good thing comes easy? There have been times that I wonder if I’m not crazy for trying to do this and imagining this will work. Setbacks, especially recently, from getting laid off for a few months and scrambling for a new one to my anxiety catching me when I’m stuck on a particular part and has had me struggling to push forward. Yet, this world of mine continues to grow. I think about the characters and the world constantly and keep building on this story and (sometimes scrambling for a post-it note or my journal to quickly write something down) making it into something.

I’m inspired by many of you as I see your own stories and struggles and yet you continued to push and back and fight and now some of you are reaping that reward as your dream has come true and you getting published!

So as I sit down to write today I want to say thank you :)
