News and Updates

Well, the new cover for Helen On the Run, is now well known.  (I don't think the cover has enhanced sales very much!)  I think the demographic that these books are aimed at is somewhat economically disadvantaged, which would explain that the vast majority of those readers tend to download them only when they're free.  (jk; sarcasm alert: I've made no secret of the fact that I do not hold my breath waiting for sales.  But nor do I want my stories to be the lowest-hanging fruit on Smashwords, pricewise.)

Now that the dynasty of president #45 is drawing to a close, I can take up completing---or at least, continuing to write---the story of Helen's and Sita's life after the events of Concerto.

It isn't going to be quick, because each time I re-read what I've written, I'm seeing purple prose that really does not belong there, and doesn't move the story along!  Of course, what happens after a couple gets established is---well, purple prose, and all that.  But that doesn't mean that I have to put it down in black and white.  (I'm regretting the little that sneaked its way into Yraid, but if I took that out, there would be very little left.  In fact, I think I failed to describe exactly what attracted the two together, except minor details of physical appearance.  But sometimes, you know, Chemistry just can't be explained.)

Here is the image I used for my own copy of the ongoing Helen+Sita project.
