For the past year or so, I have diligently posted segments of Moon Feather to Marie Rebelle's Wicked Wednesday meme, taking you, my lovely readers along for the ride as my writing journey progressed. I am happy to say, at long last, the story is complete and I have published it!
I went the self-publishing route, as so many of the authors I read have done. I had considered querying publishers, but, alas, I am a wordy bitch, and Moon Feather, at its whopping 106,000 words, is just too big for publishers to accept from a baby author such as myself. I feel like cutting the necessary 26,000 words to comply with submission guidelines would severely compromise the integrity of the story, so I just ain't gonna.
And, as Wicked Wednesday is coming to an end, I have decided to forego posting the remaining draft segments of the story, and instead presenting you with the finished product. It is currently available for purchase on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and you can even order your own paperback copy!
I want to thank everyone who has taken the time to read Moon Feather as it has taken shape on this blog, and I hope you will be interested in the full book! I want to especially thank Marie for her constant readership and comments, as I look forward to them every week.
Also, never fear, Joey and Everett's story isn't over. I have already started the groundwork for the sequel Bear Claw, which will focus more heavily on Everett's perspective as Moon Feather did on Joey's. I likely won't post the draft on this blog like I did with Moon Feather, but I will post snippets and musings from time to time.
It's taken me thirty-two years to get here, and I am so happy to finally say I have published a novel, even if it isn't exactly one I can share with my blood family. Don't want to give grandma a heart attack, after all. But I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you will continue to support me as I pursue this thing that has been my dream since I started writing really shitty dragon stories at the age of 10. Lord, we have certainly come a long way.
I will continue writing on this blog, of course. I hope to get back to writing some more nonfiction work about my experiences in the BDSM community and my thoughts on different kinky subjects. I will also be contributing pieces to the Anomaly XXII magazine, which I encourage everyone to check out and submit your own work!
Also, if you wanna write a review of my book once it releases, I wouldn't be mad about that at all. In fact, please do! If you like it, please rate it on Amazon!
Ahhhhhhh! I'm excited.
Congratulations on publishing your work!
