Quite the opposite. I have been working hard. I have been cruising through the last go through of A Company of Moors, re-applying the edits with a hardworking team. Also, this past weekend I started the re-construction of 12 Stories High, starting with its cover. I initially started working on a new cover for Code-47. Wasn't liking the designs that were being come up with. I started fiddling around and suddenly the cover for 12 Stories High started taking shape. It looks amazing. There's still some touching up to do. I went for a 'classic' approach, a re-release with a cover that makes the book look like a timeless classic.
It is, isn't it?
But, A Company of Moors is still at the forefront. The last story arc is being read through. The edits will be applied and then one last print out, a read through, submission, and BOOM! We got the book. I will jump to the 12 Stories High project immediately after, while promoting A Company of Moors.
The bad news?
2 Enlighten the G.O.D.Z. might have to wait until February 2011. The third epic will be released later that year (crosses fingers). But, at least 2 Enlighten the G.O.D.Z. doesn't have to be written, it's done. Finalized. Just needs a cover.
I am enjoying A Company of Moors. I'm getting to know the characters in a different light. A lot of the worries I had about the transition from the first and second story arc are gone. The story runs smoothly, and a prominent character doesn't fade into the background as much as I thought. Also, the story is cohesive, and reads very well. I'm just hammering out some of the few rough patches. It looks good. Can't wait for you seven people to read it.
