It seems everyone I know has been having a tough week this week. Not sure what’s going on, but it has been chaos.
In the meantime, I’ve been working on Tiger’s Tempest for the Gambler’s Folly series, and also on a new cover for Sultonna Nadine’s book, Master of the Fleet. While I love the original cover, I don’t feel it sells the whole story.
Want to give us a hand?
Go over to Sultonna Nadine’s blog and see what you think. Drop a note in the comments just for fun.
I also need to reformat Master of the Fleet for Smashwords. Apparently I never formatted it for them, so it can’t go in the premium catalog as is. So there’s something for next week.
Editing on Ben of Blackstone’s Forge is coming along. It will be Book 5 in the Esperance Series. Set into the story like Morgan, this is the love story between the blacksmith’s son and the farmer’s daughter. Everyone has thought they would marry since they were children. But when Ben goes away to finish his apprenticeship at another forge, something comes between them. Ben has no idea what it is, but Deborah will have nothing to do with him.
And then their fathers get together with the court and arrange a marriage between them.
Watch for Blackstone’s Forge!

I have an increased fascination with the blacksmith trade. I was watching something recently and it really drove home how key this role was in early times.

It really was. My grandfather and great-grandfather were blacksmiths and it has always fascinated me.l Thanks and have a great day!
