Once I get the final edits, I'll make one more pass through the novel incorporating them, and then start attending to the more mundane details of e-formatting, acquiring an ISBN number, etc.  More exciting to me is that I've gotten initial sketches on my cover, which will be drawn by the awesomely talented Gareth Hinds.  Gareth is an award-winning graphic novelist who specializes in recreating works of Shakespeare, as well as stores from mythology. You can see his stuff <a href="http://www.garethhinds.com/books.php" target="_blank">here</a>.And, I'm about 40,000 words into Book 2 ("The Crosser's Maze"), which is hard to work on while I'm still tinkering with Book 1, but I am making progress.  The Crosser's Maze is shaping up to be significantly longer than The Ventifact Colossus, so I'd say I'm only about 25% of the way through.  And then of course after that there's Books 3 and 4 (working titles of "Het Branoi" and "A Splinter in the Heart of the World."), but besides matters of long-term continuity and plotting, I'm trying not to get too far ahead of myself.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Thanks to everyone for your continued interest in my project!-Dorianp.s. Here's a repeat of a previous e-mail, for those just coming to this thread: Hey, would you like to a) help me test my stub website for the book, and at the same time b) sign up to get an e-mail from me when the book goes live?If yes, go here: <a href="http://dorianhart.com/the-heroes-of-spira/" target="_blank">The Heroes of Spira</a> and fill out the form. If something goes wrong, or it doesn't seem to work, post here and let me know. I also do solemnly swear that I will not use your e-mail address for any other purpose, or share it with anyone.</blockquote>
