update: Peculiar - The Law is Light

I've updated Peculiar with a meditation on Proverbs 6:20-23, on the importance of morality. It seems like a no-brainer that Christians should strive to uphold high morals, but these days many have lost sight of that. Here's the link.

Worlds Unseen pre-orders

Well, Worlds production is in high gear. The book should be ready to ship in two weeks or so. In celebration, I'm taking pre-orders :). Each pre-ordered book will be autographed and shipped at the earliest possible moment.

To order, visit the Worlds Unseen page on LittleDozen.com.

You can still get your free ebook version of Worlds from the same page.

update: Peculiar - The Beauty of Fidelity

This week's installment of Peculiar is a meditation on Proverbs 5, a chapter that speaks eloquently of the beauty of fidelity and the destructiveness of playing around. This message is so relevant to our culture. Chastity and fidelity are much maligned in our world, and I could cry for the pain that's resulted in so many lives.

agent hunting

I'm looking for an agent for Angel in the Woods. Likely this shall take me a while--I have a couple of agents in mind, but I'd like to do a lot more research and come up with a much longer list.

I finished writing my synopsis for Angel today. Synopses, I have decided, are not fun. My rough draft is six double-spaced pages long. I plan to boil that down to three- and one-page versions as well, for those industry pros who prefer something shorter. It's a challenge. I have to say, though, that I enjoyed revisiting Angel. Between writing Taerith and producing Worlds Unseen (the cover is still being painted but it's coming soon, I promise!), I haven't had much time for Angel, but I still think it's my best work, and I love its story. I really do.

published: The Face of Love

Ungrind is a new ezine for women. As one of their first articles, they reprinted "The Face of Love" from Letters to a Samuel Generation. You can read it here. I love the whole look and feel of the ezine. They're all about encouraging Christian women--a cause I can certainly support!

update: Peculiar - ponder the path

I've updated Peculiar with a post on watching where we're going.

Web site revisions

I've been revising the Little Dozen Press site, yes, again :). I was trying to do a lot of fancy interactive stuff with it but have decided I don't like that approach. From now on it's all about the books. Check it out and let me know what you think. Various things are still in progress, including the graphics on the home page.

Worlds Unseen cover sneak peek

The cover for Worlds Unseen is finally underway. My sister Deborah is painting it in acrylics. I got a look at it last night and it's pretty cool. I intended to blog about it today, and before I got a chance, she posted on her work blog about it... so I filched a picture.

Here it is:

Kudos if you've read the book and you know what scene this depicts, and also what still needs to be added :).

Onward and upward to publication...
