Last time I celebrated all the great authors who are fighting with blood, sweat, and tears to produce a complete novel in a month as part of National Novel Writing Month. I also told you about what came out of my experience NaNoWriMo.
With hard work since that November of two years ago, I am now able to announce the release of my contemporary fantasy novel:
CLOCKWORK GENIE.
Cecilia Orchard lives alone.
She writes fantasy and mystery stories to escape a humdrum data entry job that barely pays for her apartment, food, and bus fare. Then a handsome police detective arrives with news that she is the prime suspect in the murder of her grandfather whom she never knew existed. If inheriting a fortune from a man she doesn’t know isn’t madness enough, Cecilia finds herself the owner of a powerful genie that could make all her dreams come true, but what are her dreams and is she willing to make the wish?
There’s a real great thrill to know that an idea I had years ago, and all the hard work it took to turn the idea into a story and then into a novel, now exists for others to read.
In the weeks to follow I’m sure to write more about this book, including on how I designed and painted the cover art.
The book currently can be found on Smashwords, and soon will be through distributors including Kindle. I’ll let you know.
Thank you all for the support.
