Delta City

I think next couple of books Delta City will emerge much more in depth. I really want it to be a city and place that readers can picture and feel as they read. I really enjoy retracing some of the same locals from book 1 in the upcoming sequel. I would really like to have some illustration detailing certain aspects of the city in the near future. As it is now readers will be re-visiting many m=familiar spots in Delta City in new ways and there will be some new territory explored as well.

Titan 3 Update

The writing for Titan 3 is going slow but quite well. This is the first combined book of the series. It is what was originally books 3 & 4 and putting them together. I think I have a solid plan for seamlessly getting the two story lines to gel. I have added an extra character and altered a few scenes to make this work, and I think it will turn out rather nicely. Not sure yet what kind of time line will work as for release dates but I am comfortable with going with what works. I will not jeopardise quality for my own deadlines.

Titan 2 Complete!

I have just finished the last edits for Titan 2: City Under Siege. Now I am only waiting for the final page illustrations from Jena and I will be going to work on formatting for e-pub and print. I hope to have this done over the next few weeks and then will have a release date that I can announce. I am very pleased with the end result of this book and can't wait for it to come out. It was always one of my favourites form the series and I feel it turned out even better then I had planned. The first instalment of the next mini serial should be out within the next few days as well. Everything i smoving forward a little later than I had hoped but still much as planned which is nice.

 Soon the next job of marketing and promoting the book once its released will come....

Titan 2 Illustration #6

 

Here is Jena's 6th and final sketch for Titan 2: City Under Siege. This depict the final showdown with Titan and Dr. Melodian. I think Jena did an amazing job here. Pacific Rim eat your heart out!

Many Thanks

As Titan 2: City Under Siege rapidly approaches a completion and release date I just wanted to take this time to reach out and thank some people that helped my greatly in editing and preparing this manuscript so far. Diane Kelly, Wanda Gibbons, Greg Langham, Maureen Mieras all helped in editing this book and their insight and comments were all very welcomed and necessary in getting me this point and ready to release the book.

I am nearly done the last edits of this draft now, and then I think it will be done. Once Jena completes the inking and final versions of the illustrations they will get added in. After that all that remains is formatting for e-book and print which will require a whole new batch of very big thanks yous to people.

Taking Titan to the Masses

I am very excited to take all that I learned from the first Titan book right into the start of marketing Titan 2. A major part of marketing the new Titan volume will be getting my book to the target  age group of about 9-14. Getting it into schools and presenting it in schools myself will be a big part of this. Titan: The Midnight Hour got into about three schools and I did the presentation at the Magrath Junior High, which went amazingly well. I very much want to do more of them with Titan 2. I would like to go to schools around the province of BC and then see what happens from there. I will also most likely be doing a book giveaway through GoodReads soon as well. Titan 2 release will be coming soon!
