Hello friends of BLACK FOREST!  I know that several of you have been wondering what’s been going on, when the book will be released, fun crystal ball questions like that. Since my crystal ball is due for a good cleaning, I can only give you the fuzziest glance into the future, and it looks something like this:

Because of Covid-related lunacy, production for all Inkshares titles has to be readjusted, including BLACK FOREST. What does that mean for me (and for you)? Right now we’re looking at summer 2022 release dates ... but it’s very likely that I won’t have a confirmed date until later this year. 

Which really just means we’re still on track, I’m going to do another round of edits on my own, honing and crafting and all those other fun things that keep writers awake at night. And as soon as my crystal ball gets back from the cleaners, I’ll give you more specific details.

Thanks for your patience and support, friends -- I promise you, it will be worth it! xXOo L

We made it, friends - thanks to my dear friend Amy, we crossed the finish line at about noon today ... we’re in production now!!!  I’ll keep you all posted as we go - I can’t believe it!  And thank you all SO SO SO MUCH ... your belief in me and your support mean EVERYTHING.  This has been my dream since I was a little boy clacking away on a big hundred pound slate-blue typewriter my mom brought home from the school library sale.  And you’re all making it possible.  I love you and thank you!
