It was going to be great. And it still will be great (say in July, or maybe August).
Alas, (did I just say, alas? oh, man...) it is not YET to be. As a writer, I overestimated the perfection of my manuscript and it has required more work with the editor than I'd thought.
But--that isn't all bad news.
Here's the silver lining--The book, when you end up purchasing it, will be BETTER than anything I've written before. It will be well worth the wait.
To prove that to you, I want you all to look up at the tabs on the top of this page. See the new one? The one that says SNEAK PEEK? Are you excited yet.
Where'd you go? Oh, to read the first chapter of The Tyrant King. It's all good. I'll wait.
I'm also cooking up an awesome blog tour for TTK with my sis in law for September. I will definitely keep you posted about that.
So, bad news--no book yet. Good news--it's still coming. And you get the first chapter to tide you over. Silver linings all around!

I hear you about books taking FOREVER! to finally hit publication! I"m going through much the same thing myself, but all things (especially publishing contracts) are meant to happen in their own time and will be better for it, I'm sure. I haven't read your first book, but I read the excerpt you posted and thought it was wonderful! You have a very engaging writing style, so I'll try to check out your first book!
