So a long over due update on the second Howling Moon novel. I wish this was a here it is, type post where I was announcing an actual release date or a cover or something positive with the book. No one wishes it was out or ready to come out more than me.
I’ve gotten the question quite a bit at events where I have sold the book at in the past. Where is book 2? And I hate the idea of making an excuse post but here it is. I had wanted book two to come out late last year or even early this year. But I can say, The Pack (the current working title of book 2) won’t even see light this year.
Life. Life sort of kicked my plans to the curb. I still have a day job, as much as I might wish being a writer and creative was my main financial resource it’s not. I ended up switching jobs late summer of last year and it put a strain on me getting the book moving forward. Add on top of that, we’ve bought a house. So moving, something I never want to do again has taken up the better part of my time this year.
Current standings…book 2 is still waiting to be edited. I’ve even thought about starting a kickstarter to try an cover this part of the process. But I’m often unsure on how that would go over. I’m still hoping to publish with BHC Press who has been nothing but patient and supportive along the way. And I’m hoping at least by mid summer I can post some sort of positive news about book 2.
Again I want to thank everyone for their support over the past couple years. It means a lot.
