An ancient race of beings has conquered Earth, and can influence our minds by mere thought—the only problem is—we don’t know it. When Erfyl discovers their secret she is marked for death, unless she can reclaim a mysterious island that bears her name.
Yes, after several months of going through alpha and beta reader stages (special thanks to all who participated) I have sent the manuscript off to start the proofing process. Usually that takes a few weeks—and I have a final group of readers who will be looking at actual physical proofs of the book before it is released to the public.
Release date goal: December 1, 2011
I finished the final edit to the manuscript this afternoon at a cafeteria in Berkeley’s Graduate Theological Union in an atmosphere of some lively discussions. To one side, there was a packed table loudly arguing about the legitimacy or heresy of Arianism, at another area were a few with laptops out having a group meeting about theological language and its impact on child development. There were amusing drive-by style discussions, such as this gem I heard at the soda machine:
“Chronicles? Are you crazy? Leviticus is so much better.”
“What? Who in their right mind would willingly read Leviticus. Chronicles is awesome!”
“Seriously? Who wants to read about a bunch of dead kings ‘who did evil in the sight of the Lord’ I mean seriously, man.”
I did not hear the conclusion. I hope it did not come to blows.
1st draft completed
Due to popular demand, I’ve started prepping to create a Maudelayne novel. Due to my arrangement with the college bursar, I am only allowed to use Maudelayne’s name for free audio drama.
