First, I would like to say that this evening I will be doing
the cover reveal for the new book, Bishop’s Gate, which is scheduled for
release next week. I hope that you will check back and let me know what you
think.
If you are a first time visitor here, you can stay connected through this website, or via Facebook
and Twitter.
As I close the book, literally, on the new James
Maguire novel, I am left with a feeling of sadness. It is hard to explain,
but it’s like being on a wonderful vacation with friends and then having to say
good-bye. I know that I will see them again, but that doesn’t do much for the
moment.
However, as I did my proof read, I was struck by something
that was kind of shocking to me and I wanted to share that with you. As you
read this book, I want you to understand that the premise behind the story was
drafted last February. That is going to be significant as you read the story.
It hit me that I am either extremely prescient or we live in a world that is stuck
on stupid, inclined to keep repeating mistakes. Whether it is the threat of
global terrorism, political scandal, or race / class warfare, we never seem
learn.
It is amazing to me how a story, which I dreamt up in my
mind over a year ago, would be so timely. Hopefully, when I sit down to do the
draft for the next one, I can again channel that insight.
For now, it is time for me to move on to the next story,
which will be a sequel to the Alex Taylor novel, Small Town Secrets. I have the
luxury of having most of that one done, and I am hoping for a shorter release
time, toward the end of Spring.
Till then, I hope that you continue to enjoy my stories, and
I welcome your feedback.
