Down to the Wire

“When’s the next book coming out?” I know it from both sides. I have awaited the next installment of A Song of Ice and Fire, the Dresden Files, the Safehold series and “Now Blooms the Tudor Rose” as impatiently as anyone. (Not in the case of the 1632 series, but only because that particular fictional universe has branched out in so many directions I can’t possibly keep track of them all.) So yes, I feel the pain of those of you who really, really want to know when Locksmith’s Journeys is coming out. Be patient. I’m almost done. I’m planning on a release date of August 23. That gives me over two months to finish the book, edit, make the book trailer, edit, plan and implement various other promotions, edit, put together the proofs for the print edition and edit. I just hope I’ll have enough time to edit. In the meantime, here’s something I have finished — the cover. I made it with a little help from Obsidian Dawn and DepositPhotos and a certain amount of advice from CoverCritics. (They were right. My original plan really was a little too boring.)
