Teaser Tuesday: Everyone Wants Darwin

As I said, the action scenes are different for Darwin.  He runs away and causes chaos a lot, so you won’t get tons of head-t0-head battles.  That’s just not his style.  So, I hope this gives you a decent idea … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: The Twins

I should really introduce the rest of Darwin’s friends.  This time it’s the twins, Maeve Darkholm and Brid Lightholm.  They’re actually conjoined twins, which is a big part of their story.  Originally, they were both female, but I changed Brid … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: This is NOT an Evil Tree

Is this a spoiler?  Not really because I want this tree on the cover.  In fact, this scene is a variation of what happened in the first game I played as Darwin.  Arlinger and him found evil artifacts and wanted … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Darwin’s First Spell

So, I’m going to do more Slumberlord Chronicles: Darwin & the Fate Bracelet excerpts through the summer.  I was thinking about stuff that would make things interesting, which is tough since I didn’t have my usual type of action.  I was worried … Continue reading →

Should My Fantasy Races Hate Each Other?

(I was going to write a post about the traditional Elves vs Dwarves in fantasy.  Instead, I realized I had a lengthy section of Do I Need to Use a Dragon? (Fantasy Writing Tips) that covered the topic of racism in fantasy.  … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Building a New Steed

Today, we’re going to focus on Bob . . . Not as easy as I would like.  He’s a fun character to write, but he works best when used sparingly.  Also, best when he’s with other characters who act as … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Don’t Feed the Puppy

Kind of a jarring jump from all the fantasy teasers since July and now you have something from Chasing Bedlam.  Well, you know that poll from June?  Cassidy and Lloyd each got a vote.  I’m giving them a shared scene because … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Apparition vs Survivor

Legends of Windemere: Path of the Traitors was one of my favorite books to write because it focused on supporting characters.  It allowed me to step away from the champions and show events that would impact the finale.  This worked better … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Dark Mistress vs Wild Beast . . . Sort Of

I did the other 5 volumes, so it makes no sense to skip War of Nytefall: Ravenous.  I went with a Mab scene for some action.  Enjoy.

Teaser Tuesday: The Doorman of Ikol Tower

Here’s a fun section of War of Nytefall: Savagery.  This was an odd book to write since it was a quest instead of the usual adventures for Clyde.  Definitely stood out, especially since I had 3 storylines running towards each other.  … Continue reading →
