Hello, readers! Must be a tradition... my last update was at Memorial Day, and this one’s at the Fourth of July. I guess the next time you’ll hear from me will be at Labor Day. :-)

Big news - the book is now in the developmental editing phase. If you’re unfamiliar with the stages of editing, this is the phase where we take a close look at the story and find ways to strengthen it by changing key pieces. With the help of my Inkshares editor, I’ve taken HOW TO REMEMBER down to the studs. My awesome writers’ group helped me find a few lingering issues, and I submitted my revised outline today. We are one step closer to getting a great book into your hands.

I’ve also begun blogging with a bunch of great friends and Inkshares writers over at Writing Bloc. Follow us on Twitter at @Writing_Bloc for lots of great content! We’re currently working on a short story anthology, and I’m the lead on editing.

Last but not least, I’m nearing the midpoint of the draft for THE ENIGMA VARIATIONS, my latest project. All in all, the writing world is busy and good for me right now!

Let me know what you are all up to, readers - I’d love to hear from you! Happy week!

Hello everyone,

Sorry for the delay sending an update but my Inkshares account has not been playing nicely with my Twitter account and we’re still figuring out what’s up with that. (thank you Elena @ Inkshares for the help!)

So, the good and excellent news is that "Shadow King" is moving through production. I just finished going through all of the copy edits from Jessica and have returned them to Inkshares. Next step -- Shadow King goes to typesetting and starts to look like a "real" book!

Assuming we stay on track with production, everyone who has pre-ordered and backed Shadow King, should get their copies prior to the October 2 release date. 

I’ll send another update in July!

Best,

Susan

Hello Knightmares!

The Knightmares has officially begun production! Mark your calendars for October 16th! 

IMPORTANT: If you have moved since preordering a book, please log into your Inkshares account and update your address! Otherwise, you will not receive your book!

The editing process has been going smoothly, and I feel it has helped make the book an overall better product. It has allowed me to take a step away and reevaluate what I want this story to be. The product you will receive is the best version of this story I have to offer, and I am excited, terrified, anxious, and relieved to get it out to its audience. 

I hope you enjoy!
