This month’s Shalia’s Diary entries
finds a certain lick-worthy Nobek all over our girl’s radar, severe boredom
setting in, boredom getting scared away, and a multi-part sex-a-thon that will
run for days. You’ve been warned.
Clans of Kalquor 3: Alien Conquest – Edits continue. 12,000 words have been added as I near the end of the first round of edits. On a
side note, this book was removed by the publisher from everywhere but their own
site for a couple of weeks. It’s now back
at Amazon,
Barnes
& Noble, and Smashwords. If you want the original version, you have
until March 21 to get it. After that
comes the longer edition with more tasty Kalquorian goodness than before.
If this trend continues, here’s a heads-up to my newer readers. You can probably expect the publisher to pull
Clans of Kalquor 4: Alien Salvation from outside distributors
at some point before its contract runs out on July 27. If you favor buying from Amazon, B&N, and
Smashwords, get your copy soon or you’ll have to wait like you did for Alien Rule and Alien Conquest.
Clan Beginnings: Clan, Honor, and Empire – I am finally
seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Next week should find me wrapping up the first draft ... fingers
crossed! I have pushed back the tentative
release date to early April. This story
currently clocks in at over 142,000 words ... that’s two books’ worth of
writing (if you want something to measure that by, the current version of Alien Conquest is about 65,000 words). I may have to release C, H, and E as two books for the print version, depending on what
Createspace will let me get away with.
Yikes.
First Mataras: Michaela –Still writing a bit here and
there. It’s slow going what with concentrating
on readying Alien Conquest for
re-release, writing the behemoth that is Clan,
Honor, and Empire, and toiling away on Shalia’s
Diary. I have not yet determined if
this one’s release will also have to be delayed. I am still aiming for June.
Clans of Kalquor 9: Alien Indiscretions –Once every few days I
peek in and write a tidbit. Hoping for a
September release.
There you have it. Have a
wonderful, naughty Valentine’s!
Hi there, I was just wondering. For the books with added bits is do we have to buy the book again if we already have it or can we updated it on like amazon? Thanks
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, the newer book is treated by the distributors as an entirely new purchase since it is under another publisher. Amazon will not update the older version.
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI have no problem re-buying the books you have revised. If you have added new content. Did you add new content to Alien rule? Because I noticed Amazon no longer says I own that one.
I love the Kalquor series. I can't wait for your new books!
Hi! There were some slight changes done to Alien Rule, but not to the extent that I recommend buying the newer version. I consulted with a reader who decided to buy the newer version anyway, and she agrees...not enough revisions to warrant a second purchase. Save the money, lol. Thanks!
DeleteSo which ones of the series would you recommended rebuying, I have no problem buying it again I just wasn't sure if it needed to be or not. Love the kalquor series.
ReplyDeleteAlien Embrace had significant changes with extra background on the men added as well as bringing it better in line with the series (when I wrote it I had no idea it would become a series). Alien Conquest, the revised edition due out after March 21, will also have more story than before. That's as far as I've gotten at this time.
