Okay,
I’m taking over the blog today since the authors have been down for the last
couple of weeks fighting with a nasty case of bronchitis/pneumonia.
Mind
you, they’ve also been trying to get the anthology finished and ready for
release. We’re all hoping for it to go out before Halloween, but with all
that’s been going on it might not be until early November. We’ll see how things
work out.
In
the meantime, let’s talk about that anthology.
What’s
it all about?
Untold
tales…
not just about me but Lisa, Marisa, Otto and even some familiar faces from the
first two books in the Para-Earth Series (“The Bridge” and “The Ship”) which
we’re a part of. A few of you may be asking, why does the Para-Earth Series
seem to have smaller series within it? It’s more a case of different sets of
characters being focused on within the series. As you will see in the
anthology, the authors are starting to mix us all together in anticipation of a
much bigger cross-over that is currently in the works.
Mind
you this is not just a one-shot deal kind of cross-over like you get with a lot
of comic books. Oh no, this is the
beginning of something bigger and permanent. It all starts with “The Door”...
Or
rather towards the end of that upcoming novel (which admittedly has been in the
works for several years) which the writers hope to have close to (if not
actually finished) before the end of next year.
Part of the problem with that book was the fact that me and my friends’
story got in the way and had to be put out first. Then, life got in the way
which further complicated getting “The Door” heading in the right direction.
But things are improving on that front and progress is being made as I type
this entry.
I
will be making not one but two guest appearances in it as well as some ‘friends’
you’ll be meeting in “The Vampyre Blogs – One Day At a Time”. So you see, all
these delays do serve a purpose as Allan and Helen continue to introduce you
all to more Para-Earths and those who inhabit them. Some of those being we meet
will be scary, some will be friendly, others well... you’ll have to wait and
see. But rest assured, all of us will do our best to keep you glued to your
seats while trying to get your hearts racing with each new installment.
As
for the anthology’s release... Allan and Helen are waiting to hear back from the
last few beta-readers, but so far the response has been very enthusiastic with
a lot of big thumbs up. So stay tuned. In
the meantime, please accept everyone’s heart-felt wish for you all to have a
very...
