Well... I have been busy, busy!
I just finished writing the third Fearless Three volume. As in just finished! I have sent it on to my mom, the very talented lady who has done all of my covers so far. As well as the illustrations for the kid's books. My plan now is to get the three Fearless Three books completely cleaned up and uploaded to Lulu. I should be getting the first volume any day now in the mail. If that is good, I'll be making it available publicly and then I will move forward with the other two. I fugure that those two won't take as long since the layout for all three is the same. So only a short wait now!
Once I have those three available for sale I am going to take a break from that series for a month or so and see what the response to them is. If they are liked and get favorable reviews from parents and kids I'll continue on with them. (I'll probably continue on with them regardless..they're just too fun to write!)
But in the meantime I'll be focusing on my second novel and getting that written. As well as move forward with marketing Descent Into Temptation.
I will keep you all posted on the Fearless Three series as they are made available. Shouldn't be too long, my mom is a speed demon when it comes to drawing these things up!

Tom's preview
This is the cover of my first book, the initial installment of the Tymarune series.
This will be the little blurb on the back of the book, check it out, let me know what you think:
Xander Coyle was born to be a hero. Raised by wealthy parents, he spent his childhood years developing a sense of right and a drive for justice. Misunderstood by those around him, Xander wandered the world trying to find the right fight, the right person to save, the right moment to shine, always coming up short. Until one fateful night on a winding forest freeway transformed his life and transported him to a new world, a world in need of a hero.
Xander’s quest to become a hero begins on Earth, but takes him to Tymarune, a world of magic and mystery. Inhabited by mythical creatures, Xander must traverse this strange world to find and destroy the evil that brought him there. Along the way, Xander will meet new friends, new enemies and a host of oddities, some there to help, others there to alter him forever. He must face his fears, face himself and confront the darkest evil he has ever known in order to deliver Tymarune from the shadows of twilight, the darkness that threatens every innocent creature.

Tom's update 12/2
I have my first book in the book format now and saw the pic Mindi did for the cover, it's pretty cool. She should have that done soon, and once it is, we can get the book finished and ready to print. So, it should be done very soon now.
In the meantime I've gotten back to the rewrite of the second book. After seeing the first one get put into the book format, I know what I have to work with now. So, I'm hoping the second one will be longer, as I really don't need to worry about length.
