Greetings, Loyal Reader!
I’ve had a busy summer and fall and I thought I’d bring you up to speed on what I’ve been doing, what I’m working on, and what’s ahead.
[SECRET PROJECT]
- The makers of a fun, crazy, tongue-in-cheek fantasy-themed computer game approached me a while back about writing a short tie-in novel set in the world of their game. It sounded fun, so I said sure! I can’t tell you the name of the game quite yet, because they haven’t officially announced the book.
- I can tell you I turned in the manuscript last week and the target release date is in early November.
- I have also seen draft cover art, which looks amazing — and which I will share as soon as I get the all clear to do so.
- As I understand it, the book will be available in the Amazon Kindle Store only. I know! I know! That is not how I would do it, but I’m only the hired gun on this one, not the publisher.
- More details to come!
New books from Andrea Parnell
- The star author of my publishing company Trove Books is not me, but my mother Andrea Parnell.
- Over the last few years Trove has released Mom’s gothic romance novels Dark Splendor and Whispers at Midnight, the novella Dark Prelude, and the Western romance Delilah’s Flame.
- This fall she has three new titles coming out, including two more Western romance novels — Devil Moon and My Only Desire and a Western novella. All are in the final stages of editing and production — which means I am doing a good bit of editing and producing lately!
Jason Cosmo in Audio
- Audio drama auteur Tim Heffernan of The Drama Pod has produced an audio drama adaptation of Jason Cosmo: Hero Wanted you can download now! I’ll discuss in more detail at JasonCosmo.com … but have a listen! It is great fun.
Royal Crush
- Last, but not least, with the soon-to-be-formally-announced Secret Project written, I am back to writing the next Jason Cosmo book, Royal Crush. Which, at this point, looks like an early 2014 release.
Whew! I’m tired. Are you tired? But I think we’re all caught up! I will try to post more often, and with greater brevity!
Best regards,
Dan McGirt
