Legends of Windemere

I asked today’s Guest Author to fill in my Friday spot because she’s done something I think is pretty amazing. Published at 16, contract, then all gone, and then here we are. LitWorldInterviews has the reputation as the Indie Authors place but I also think there is an Indie Author attitude. Today’s guest has that to me. I suggested a number of topics but one idea kept seeping in, even into other ideas. Welcome, Author Shannon A. Thompson.

The holidays are usually a very happy time for me as a writer. Extra time to write and watch the snow at the same time? Sign me up. I am a lover of snow…which is probably why my first novel, November Snow, revolves around the fluffy stuff. But the winter of 2014 wasn’t filled with smiles and snow and writing adventures. It was wet with rain, and it seemed quite suiting to…

Traci Sanders is hosting the It’s Reining Men Tour for the month of March. I am lucky to be the kick-off guest and have had a great time. Today I have posted an excerpt from my next book titled His Revenge for release in May. (At least that was the last word). Traci has a beautiful site and well worth a visit. http://awordwithtraci.com/guest-author-john-howell-3

Author and mother of three, Traci Sanders has been composing poetry, songs, and children’s stories since the young age of ten. In 2003, she opened her home to young children in her community offering “beyond the basics” teachings. In 2008, she was recognized by the Child Care Resource and Referral Agency as Family Childcare Provider of the Year and was featured in two local newspapers.

In 2010, she furthered her education by earning her Child Development Associates degree and was a recipient of the FIRST (First Incentive for…

…here’s an interesting blog piece from my friend, Author, Shawn Griffith, that has set my wee grey cells thinking, Lads and Lassies of Blog Land… I’m sure it will have some of yer own  twirling as well… enjoy…

I got the idea of this bundle through my friend C. E. Robinson. After very kindly buying my epic fantasy series, Pearseus, she told me that she printed out the map and character list, to help her while reading.

This gave me the idea of presenting that information in the form of a post and a download link, to allow readers to more easily do so. In her honor, I call it the Robinson bundle.

The bundle contains the following documents:

• The character lists of the three books. As these change among books, and to avoid any spoilers, they come in three separate PDFs. This makes it easier to print out the one you want.

• As a special nod to my lovely cousin and beta-reader, Elpida, a timeline with the events up to Vigil (the things I’ll do for Tex-Mex).

• The map below in high resolution (1200×860). You can also save the image…

I am also posting today on A Word with Traci the blog of author Traci Sanders. I put up a short story that was published in the Paper Book Collective titled The World Darkly and thought Traci’s readers would like it. I didn’t think I could do an adequate job of trying to explain Frank, Billy, and Ms. Sutter but still wanted a story day.

Jump over and read the story. You will also find a very nice place to visit frequently.

Here is the link and Traci’s bio. She is quite a person.
