I published my first novel this year with the “Extreme Medical Services” book. That book started as a challenge to complete the NaNoWriMo contest in November 2014. Since then I’ve published that novel, written a prequel novella (The Vampire and the Paramedic) and the first draft of the second “Extreme Medical Services” book (Paramedic’s Folly). The series will consist of at least three full-length novels and at least one prequel novella. I plan to publish and release that second ExMS novel in December around the holidays.
New Fantasy Project In The Works
So, with that under my belt and NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) approaching, I decided to start a new project series called the “Legion of Solon Trilogy.” It will follow the story of a teenage girl of noble birth who enlists and goes off to war with her brothers when their kingdom is invaded. The first novel in the series will be entitled “Legion On The March.”
“Legion On The March” will track the conflict between the primary character, Cori Westgate, and her family on her decision to enlist. The legion of elite scouts and archers has a history of allowing both men and women to join. It will take her through this challenge from enlistment to training, to the legion’s first battle in the war.
Why Start A New Fantasy Project?
My family questions starting a new project before the other project is completed. The ExMS series is not going away. I have plans to start writing the first draft of the third book in that series starting in mid-December. In fact, I have plans to continue both projects side-by-side throughout 2016 with both reaching their culmination by the end of the year.
As a reader, I appreciate the angst of having to wait a year or more to get the next book in a series. Because I am sensitive to that, I have focused on turning out books every three months or so through the end of 2016 to keep my fans happy. I hope you are enjoying my efforts so leave a comment below on what you like and what you don’t like. Everything makes me a better writer!
