Hi Again!
3 years ago
I've been busy lately and the website and journals have fallen a bit behind.
I do plan on returning soon though. Things will be mirrored at the furry sites and my website, so you won't have to go looking for me.
Some quick news. My publisher was at Anthro Weekend Utah (AWU) last weekend. He did some panels where he says he recommended people read my journals. I'll work on that, although it will probably be once a week, maybe even once every other week to start. He sold out of Wolf's Pawn there and nearly sold out on the other two novels. I guess AWU is now a real convention. Keep looking for RP Games at those, I'm told that there will be signed copies available in the future. Hopefully I'll spell my pen name right this time.
Also, the publisher is working a contract with an artist for the Terah Tails stories. These were originally just something I did on the side, but my friend talked the publisher into getting involved. The artist is REDACTED
Apparently I'm not supposed to give out the name until the ink dries on the contract, but I'm very excited.
For those who might not know, the Terah Tails series is a set of children's books based in the world of Terah with characters from my novels. Those who have read my stuff know that Benayle really likes cake and Benayle Makes a Cake tells about his first attempt at making one. It's a fun little ditty about well, making a cake. Sajani and the Magic Coin takes place in Sajani's hometown of Adido. It follows a little wolf named Tebbs as she struggles to deal with bullies. She gets help from Sajani, Chass, and a magic coin. Chass and the First Day of School is about how Chass deals with being a 5'8" tall six-year old. Yes, I did the math on that using growth charts and to be his grown height, he'd have been almost six feet tall at the age of six. The story is a fun look at dealing with problems and keeping a positive attitude, something Chass is very good at.
If those do well, I'm planning another book called Tess and the Flying Cookie Jar. This book expands on something mentioned in passing in Faux Scent. I was going to quote it, but it's quite the spoiler. Tess and her sister contrive a plan to get to the hidden cookie jar, but the plan doesn't go the way they want it.

I noticed kids who read the books had favorite characters like Chass and thought maybe younger kids would enjoy hearing about him. My kids liked them anyway.
