WIP Update. Title, Cover, Description All Done
Will be adding this to the “Coming Soon” section today. I’m sure the description will change somewhat, it always does. I’m terrible at these things. 🙂 I love the cover. Around 55K words in, and cruising. Description incoming:
Meet Jack. Jack’s been awake for two hundred years, and he’s a little cranky.
The victim of a witch’s curse, Jack has been awake for two hundred years. Unable to die, unable to sleep, he’s trapped in a state of existence that no one can relate to, not even his vampire best friend Victoria.
Using his unique condition, he has helped Victoria in keeping the supernatural world at bay. Evil vampires, werewolves, and monsters have all died at their hand. But he’s about to face his biggest challenge, eight-year-old orphan Tiffany.
Tiffany shows Jack a side of life he’s never seen. A beautiful, hopeful world, where even someone full of rage and disdain for mortal life can find happiness.
However, when his new life and friends are in danger, Jack will unleash a fury two hundred years in the making.

Hi Glenn,
So you’re at 55K words. How many do words do you typically shoot for? Or is it a done when it’s done kind of thing?
BTW, “A Witch to Live” was great but sadly over too soon.

I always try to shoot for 70K – 75K words. Demonspawn was crazy, and clocked in at something like 110K. Supposedly the logic is the more you write, the better you get at telling stories with less words. Works for me. 🙂

Dude! That looks awesome. Is it out already?? I’m still struggling to get the third Brodie out, how are you tossing out five a year? Either way, it looks fantastic, and yes… it’s on my wish list.
BTW: You have a thing for Victoria, don’t you??

Hey Jerry 🙂 Nah not out yet. Should be out in the summer time I think. Ha I wish I was hitting 5 a year. 2 definitely this year, maybe 3 if I’m really lucky.
Victoria is awesome. 🙂 She started out as a simple side character in Demonspawn. I didn’t think of her as anything but to help drive the plot forward. Demonspawn was Alex’s story. But she definitely grew, and now she’s one of the driving forces in that series. 🙂

Glenn,
Props on the new novel “A Witch to live”. Definitely a great book and can’t wait for the new one to come out.
Just wondering, have you given any thought of writing a novel of Victoria? How she became a vampire and her history. I think it would it be awesome to know more about her and I like how you are incorporating your characters from your novels into each other
Seems to me this world you are creating is become a very rich world that needs multiple SERIES!

I think you will like Jack Kursed. 🙂 I give a little snapshot into Victoria, and again there’s a few surprises.

How many people bug you about getting Brodie Wade out one more time? 🙂
April 17, 2012 @ 2:14 pm
Mainly….. my wife. =) I am asked every now and then, but for the most part, people are patient.

Haha that’s awesome. 🙂
