It's My Birthday!

And since it's my birthday I can do whatever I want. It's a rule in our family. A rule which I instated one year... ON MY BIRTHDAY.

What I want to do this year is make this announcement about my next book.

What's that, you say? You didn't know I had another book coming out?

Yeah, well, that's why I'm announcing it of course! I haven't been talking about it much, but I've been working with my publisher, editing the book and generally getting ready. It comes out this Fall, probably in early September. I'll be giving you more details (publisher name, exact release date, etc.) in the near future.

If you're a long time minion here at BHR you've already heard me talk about it... it's a fantasy novel I wrote for my kids called The Sword of Six Worlds and here's the cover:


In any case, if all goes well and we hit certain sales numbers, there will be sequels. So GET READY! Because it's my birthday and I say so!

Updates to come (eventually) at SIXWORLDS.COM!

  2. Oh, that's much better than "...and I'll cry if I want to."

    2. Brainstorming. I think I need to quit thinking of it in terms of "writing a story" and go to "blog entry that'll get published elsewhere.

      A full night's sleep would also help.

    Congratulations on evading death for another year to you! And thanks for giving the rest of us all a present in new book form.

    1. Evading death... well, more like tacitly ignoring it and hoping it doesn't notice me. :)

  5. Oh my goodness!!!!!!! We are so excited! My daughter was re-reading IJ the other night and the next morning said "I couldn't sleep because I just got sucked in to the book." This is thrilling news!
