Well, it’s time. It’s been a few years (far, far too long), but I’m finally ready to publish my second novel.
I’m really proud of Starconvoy EH-76. It started as just an idle thought (specifically: I wonder what the most successful convoy run during WW2 was?), and slowly fleshed out into a full story over a few years.
Lots of tweaks and changes… Griff was originally named Greg (small change, but one that I am happy with), and the character of Westerly has gone through a few revisions over time as well (more gruff, less serious, more Picard, more Sisko, etc…).
In all honesty, I think the last 10 chapters are among the best things I’ve ever written… which, considering the full work is 15 chapters long, is saying something! And there are a few moments that I’m really happy with!
Regardless, I got the art sorted, got the few spelling “errors” sorted (one of the weapons in the book is called a “spakker” due to the noise it makes when fired… not a spelling mistake, but not an English word, so that’s not really a surprise!).
Anyway! It’s off to Amazon, and should be live in the next 72 hours or so!
Coincidentally, I’m offering the first Episode of “Tintian and the King’s Claw” for free for the next 5 days… little cross-novel promotion probably can’t hurt! Thanks for all your support, as usual, and I’ll post here again when the novel goes live!
