The Last Book In A Series

Gryphon Warriors

It’s hard to say goodbye to characters and a world that you created. When I write, there are so many surprising twists and turns that I never anticipated. For me, writing is like reading a great book. I get the same thrill.

The Marshyl Stories is one of my favorite series. I really love the combination of a wild west setting, mixed with magic. Some books just have the right chemistry and the Marshyl Stories has it. Ring mages and wand casters, magical battles, and young Marshyl Knights trying to find their place in a world that both reveres and fears them. Writing the final book was difficult because I wanted it to be good. I needed to tie together all the loose threads I had left from the other books. As a storyteller I want my books to satisfy the reader. That doesn’t always mean a happy ending, and hopefully not a predictable one either, but certainly one that leaves them feeling glad they came along for the ride.

I’ll miss Dex and his determination to always do the right thing, no matter the cost. I’ll miss his friendships with Kyp and Squirrel. Saying good-bye to Princess Lauralyn, Outrider Reegan, and the Lord Marshyl were all bittersweet but I think they are happy with the story. I hope my readers are too.

Gryphon Warriors goes live on Amazon September 29th, 2020.
