I'm slowly preparing to begin work on Lost Dogs part 5. The first thing to do is re-read what I already wrote. The quote above shows up in the second chapter already, and chances are it'll make it through into the final version. .. .. .. . . .. .. .. #lostdogsseries #amwriting #amreading #amwritingfantasy #storytelling #storyquote #writingprogress #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #irishindieauthors #authorlife
...and here it is. The new cover for Lost Dogs part 4. I put it together myself in Gimp, using stock images from Shutterstock. It's not what I had in mind when I started working on it, but I'm liking how it turned out. .. .. The book itself comes out on the 27th, but I strongly recommend you read the previous books first. To celebrate the release, I'm making books 1 and 2 (yes, both of them) free for a limited time next weekend - from the 23rd to the 25th. I also wrote a blog post with a slightly bigger version of the cover (without the background). Check it out through the link in my profile. .. .. .. .. #lostdogsseries #bookcover #coverimage #coverreveal #bookstagram #booknerd #fantasybook #fantasy #urbanfantasy #werewolf #authorsofinstagram #author #indiebook #indieauthor #irishindieauthors #writersofinstagram #selfpublishing #fantasyseries
I'm working on the blurb for Lost Dogs part 4. Currently, this is the last sentence. I'm not sure how important the blurb is for a sequel this deep into the series. Hopefully, if someone read the first three books, they'll be interested in the fourth book regardless. Also, not sharing the full blurb yet as it contains some spoilers.😜 .. .. .. #writingprogress #lostdogsseries #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #fantasybook #fantasy #urbanfantasy #werewolf #writersofinstagram #blurb #authorsofinstagram #irishindieauthors #coffeeshopwriting #storytelling
And it's done. This is the second to last paragraph of the last chapter of Lost Dogs part 4. .. I just finished my own bout of proofreading and sent the book over to my main proofreader, who will no doubt find tons of mistakes I missed. .. The ebook version of the book will be available on the 27th this month, and the proofread paperback version will be available whenever the proofreading is done (probably end of January). .. So, do I knowingly release a book with errors in it? Yes, I'm afraid I do. I once again overestimated how long it would take, and set my preorder date too early. I'm trying to learn from my mistake though, and will be setting the release of book 5 as far ahead as I can (end of February). The second draft of book 5 is already well under way, and it will be significantly shorter than book 4. I really should be able to make it this time. Otherwise I'll have to try and track down everyone who bought the previous books and send them a free copy of the prequel story (it's written, but needs some editing, and won't be released just yet). .. All in all, it's with mixed feelings I'm releasing this story. It's good enough, which is what I aim for, but I know it could be better. .. .. .. .. .. .. #lostdogsseries #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #fantasybook #fantasy #fantasywriter #urbanfantasy #werewolf #storytelling #storyquote #indiebook #indieauthor #authorsofinstagram #author #irishindieauthors #bookquote #booknerd #writingprogress #writingcommunity
