Hi, everyone! There is a lot going on and I haven't checked in for a bit.
First, I did it. I left my job, just this month. I've heard every reaction from beaming pride and confidence to sneering disdain for my foolish choice, but it is what it is now. At this point I'm going to give this everything I can - and time will tell. Either way, I so appreciate all of your support. I am stepping on that pedal, wherever this road leads!
I had a great time at Great Lakes Comic Con this weekend meeting new people and seeing familiar faces again. Thanks for stopping by if you were there.
I've also been working on our first anthology: As Told by Things, a collection of short stories and flash fiction told from the point of view of inanimate objects. We are going to launch a Kickstarter in the next few days to pay for the cover, editing, and author royalties, as well as to hopefully generate more exposure for the project. It's a super fun collection, and I will post the link when it's online.
As for Diamondsong, I've been working it every moment I can - I've been cutting no corners on making sure I'm completely happy with it. I'm working on a first round of developmental changes now and I really like how the story is filling in. I'm also working on cover art with a Michigan artist and on a fantasy map with a Finnish artist. More on all of that later, but right now I'm experimenting with a more contemporary cover design and seeing if I can still make that read fantasy. Anyway, this is all happening and as soon as I have a better sense of the release date, I'll let you know.
Lastly, I recommend you check out this anthology by the Mad Scientist Journal team, which ends shortly (so don't wait). I was impressed with (and enjoyed) their last collection and expect only better from this one. Talk to you soon! - E

Happy February! Thanks again to each one of you! ♥
These funds will get us moving along with the cover, map, and editing - and that's a huge help. I hope you'll love the story, and I'll keep you posted on its progress. In the meantime, please do follow along on my social media sites, all linked at edebell.com
Let me know anytime if you have any questions - E.
