The sequel to Dawn of Wonder is underway. The rough draft is finished and the first revision is a few chapters in. Having done all this once before, I hope that the second time around things will be quicker.

The sequel is rather different – faster paced, more urgent. Book 3 and 4 are in the wings with many of the key scenes already laid out, and with them, the scale is going to increase significantly and the mysteries will lead far deeper. I’m itching to get into them and follow the threads that were introduced earlier. The scenes in the third book are begging to be made huge. That book tugs at my thoughts constantly, like it’s jealous of the time being given to book 2. For me, it’s like trying to manage a couple of kids jostling for attention – not unlike being a teacher again.

Thank you to everyone who has bought the debut, reviewed it, or mailed me. I really appreciate all the support. Without you getting behind the first book, it would be very difficult to complete the second. As it is, the progress is looking good. I hope you’ll find it worth the wait.
