King Breaker has been officially released!
It feels a bit like that movie Born Free, where you nurture your book until it is ready then release it into the big wide world of bookshops and reviewers. Will anyone even notice? Will anyone buy and copy and like the book that you’ve been slaving over for the past year?
Here’s King Breaker with its brothers all roaming free now.
I’ve been busy these last few weeks doing blog posts. Here they are:
Who wants to be King? (SF Signal) (Because frankly, who would want to be king? Give me a nice cup of tea and quiet corner any day)
What makes a Great Leader? (Geek Native)
Spec Fic is Becoming Mainstream (at SF Bulletin).
The Secret Daydreams of Writers (SFX)
Verisimilitude On world building and making a story feel real (Rising Shadow)
Writers Love Readers (Fantasy Faction)
Where books come from (Upcoming4me)
Magic Systems in Fantasy (Mass Movement Magazine)
And here are the interviews:
I think it’s wonderful that these people are so passionate about the genre and books and reading that they’ll set up a web site and do all this work to maintain it!
While I’m on the topic, is there anything readers would like me to blog about?
