Now that my trilogy is written (book 3 is with the editors, but I've turned in a solid draft), I can recover and get back into the swing of things. And I really need to, because...my debut launches March 2nd! That's only FIVE DAYS away!
Please bear with me as I get my ducks in a row. There's still alot that I need to learn, but I'm leaning on every option available to me to boost this message as the first book of my trilogy gets fueled up on the launch pad. I just recently sent out my March newsletter with some updates. Here is the condensed version (subscribe for the juiciest bits and extras). I will be hosting a virtual book launch party on Facebook the same day as my debut. March second is next Tuesday. It will start at 6pm. There is a discussion thread there where you can hop on and ask me a question for an ask me anything. I will be peeking in all day to cull questions which I will highlight during the party. If you can't make the event, maybe you can hop on and drop a question for me. I also plan on utilizing the tools available on Goodreads soon ahead of launch day, so you can check out my author's page there also if you're curious. ONE DAY AS A LION is available for pre-order on Amazon. For those of you who might prefer audiobooks, it is also on Audibles. If you are a reviewer please contact me for an advanced reader copy. I think that's all for now. As always please drop me a message if you have questions. Until then be safe and be good to each other. best, John

What a winter it has been! I feel like so much has happened and I've been away for such a long time. Anyway...I'm back! I have been away for over a month now, but rest assured I was diligently working on book 3 of the Gordian Knot trilogy, and (drum roll) it's done!
I kind of feel like Matt Damon's character in The Martian. It took me over a day to mentally recover just from the frantic pace of my final round of edits before sending my draft to the publishers. Maybe one of these days I can candidly share what the experience was like - and perhaps how to avoid making the same mistakes that I did and suffering serious burnout. That said, I have an important announcement. As many of you know, my debut is coming up soon on March 2nd! Below, I have an Amazon pre-order link for those who feel so inclined. Check it out, click, as you like. I have some other updates and news that I want to share, but I don't want to get too far ahead of myself just yet and I need time to prepare and organize. I also want to do something special for my newsletter subscribers because I haven't sent one in...two months? I want to make this one a little extra. That said, I need to give my eyes a break from the computer screen - which I've been staring at constantly for what feels like the entire pandemic lockdown. A sincere thank you to everyone who has been supportive. I will keep you updated as I transition to the next step of my journey (whatever that may be :P). Be good to yourselves and to each other. best, John |
