Good morning!

I know you’re all eager to get your hands on “Shadow King” (I had two people at my office yesterday ask when they were getting their copies!).  "Shadow King" continues to wait in the Inksahres queue for the editor, along with several other books. As soon as I have news about release dates, I’ll let you know right away.

In other news... as you know from previous updates I did go ahead and enter another manuscript into the 2017 Launchpad Manuscript Competition (because I’m crazy like that).

I found out Tuesday that “The Devil You Don’t” has made the first cut and been named to the Top 75 list! 

So, what does this mean? It means I still have a long way to go to get from Top 75 to (hopefully) Top 10 and beyond.

I can, however, start to crowdfund for the Inkshares portion of Launchpad 2017 on August 28.

Many of you showed a tremendous amount of generosity and support last year for “Shadow King” and it wouldn’t be waiting for the editor now without each and every one of you.

I am, however, painfully aware that asking for your support for a second book when the first doesn’t even have a release date yet is a BIG ASK. But I’m going to ask anyway, and I hope that you’ll all be as enthusiastic about “Devil You Don’t” as you are about “Shadow King.”

I’ll be sending another update next week with details about when I’ll be opening the new manuscript for funding, key dates, and a list of raffle-type giveaways that I have planned for different pre-order milestones. In the meantime, you can see a synopsis of “Devil” on my Inkshares page (preview chapters coming soon!): www.inkshares.com/books/the-devil-you-don-t

We made it to 5th last year -- and I know getting into the Top Three is totally achievable this year!

Best,
Susan

    Hello everyone, I hope you’re all well! Time for another update on things going on in the Shadow King world and beyond.

    Shadow King--The Book
    As much as I hate to say it, Shadow King is still in the queue for an editor, and believe me--NO ONE wants it to move forward more than I do! 

    From what I’ve been able to find out from Inkshares, they’ve finally started kicking off some projects but there are books in their queue that have been waiting for almost a year (whereas I’ve only been waiting 4 months or so). I don’t know how many of these books there are, but I’ll continue to check in with them periodically and keep you all posted.

    As always, if you’ve pre-ordered and are waiting, thank you! If you’re following Shadow King’s progress, I would love to add you to my list of readers. Please consider putting in a pre-order for a copy.

    Shadow King--The Book Trailer
    I have compiled a book trailer for Shadow King. It is posted on the Shadow King Inkshares Page. Please check it out -- It is my first trailer and I’d love to hear what you think.

    Launchpad 2017--I’m all in!
    This may be proof of my insanity, I have entered my next manuscript in this year’s Launchpad competition. It is a dark fantasy titled "The Devil You Don’t." It has a page up on Inkshares, and I’m looking to start building a following for the story.

    Right now, there is only a brief synopsis up, but if I’m fortunate enough to do well in Launchpad, I’ll add more content and then start doing some updates specific for Devil.

    THANK YOU!
    Thank you as always for your interest in Shadow King (and hopefully your interest in Devil You Don’t). Your support is very much appreciated--I would not be where I am right now without all of you.

    Best,
    Susan

      Hi everyone,

      I know this is a quick update right on the heels of my last one, but I’m excited to share the new "Shadow King" cover with everyone. Thank you to the wonderful Charlene Maguire of ShapeShifter studios for the wonderful work.

      I also noticed today that Inkshares has a new badge on the Shadow King page that shows we are the #3 best selling dark fantasy title on their site. 

      I’d love to see that move up to a higher ranking, so if you haven’t ordered yet, this would be a great time!

      Have a great rest of the week and weekend, and I’ll send another update in the near future!

      Best,

      Susan

        Hi everyone,

        I know it has been a bit since my last update, but we all get so much email, I didn’t want to send anything unless I actually had something to say.

        The good news--the Shadow King manuscript and author questionnaire that Inkshares asked me to fill out have both been turned in to the Inkshares team. So, that is one step closer to getting production rolling. The "bad" news is that I’m still in the queue so production has not officially kicked-off yet (and I don’t have an anticipated kick-off date yet). I am keen to get going and as soon as I have any news on that front, I’ll be sure to let you know!

        In the meantime, I’ve been trying to figure out some of this whole marketing thing which--I confess--is a bit alien to me. I have been invited to contribute to a couple blogs, and I’ll send those links when my posts are live. I’m also looking into starting my own. And my author pages on Amazon and Goodreads are set up, and I’ll share those links with all of you in an upcoming update.

        My cover is nearly complete and I’m very happy with how it has turned out. Once we get the last few adjustments taken care of, I’ll be updating my Inkshares page and sharing it with all of you.

        From a sales perspective I’ve leveled off a little, and I need to refocus on that. I’m within striking distance of 300 orders, and I’d love to hit that milestone in the near future and move on up from there!

        That’s it for this update. I’ll send another soon when I have information on my author pages and new cover!

        Have a great rest of the week!

        Best,

        Susan
