Ready, Set, Write!

Candy Havens, author of Charmed and Dangerous, hosts a free workshop loop called Write_workshop. Every month (or maybe every couple months) she or a volunteer instructor generously give free classes for writers.

Next week she will begin her "Fast Draft" class, in which we (attempt to) write an entire draft in two (two?...) weeks. I've participated in and 'won' the Nanowrimo challenge (50k in the month of November) two years in a row, but a full draft in only two weeks? I'll admit I'm more than a little intimidated. I'm also very excited.

Who else will be Fast Drafting next week?

Today all my news is about Grave Dance. You might have seen my earlier tweet that I received a couple of ARCs. I think now is a good time to give one of those copies away, don't you?

What's Next?

A lot of people are writing to ask if Grave Destiny is the final book in the series. I'm very happy to report that no, this is not the end! Ace has contracted one final Alex Craft novel so that I can finish up the story. I'm currently writing the first draft, and while it has a tentative title, I'm not free to share it quite yet. I'll be turning in the 7th Alex Craft novel this September, so I anticipate it will be released late 2020 or early 2021 but will update you when I have more information. So, for those of you worried that this might be the end, worry not. There is more. I hope you are enjoying Grave Destiny!
