Quorum Treaty update
Quorum Treaty update
It’s coming folks! The new sci-fi book Quorum Treaty is coming. I have spent the last 6 months editing the manuscript. I am two thirds of the way now. Then it will be sent to Alice Dengler, my manuscript finesser in the UK, who will work her magic.
Once the manuscript is returned from Alice, I will take a quick look over it before sending the manuscript off to an editor. The editor’s role is to clean up the story using a fresh pair of eyes and to get the book ready for publishing.
I do my best writing and editing when I’m relaxed, generally sitting outside in nature. My most recent trip was to far north Queensland. Here are some pictures of the campsite – not a bad place to get inspired.
Quorum Treaty update
Like many authors, I have written a book I would want to read. For each and every writer that means something different. Personally, I like stories that immerse the reader so deeply into a fantasy world that they forget about reality. I do not spend much time trying to explain the mechanics of my sci-fi world; rather I spend more words on developing characters. Moreover, I feel the best storytellers are those who manage to have their fantasy worlds dragged into the vernacular of the real world by readers. For example, nothing would blow my mind more than seeing a quote from one of my characters on a t-shirt – the Divergent Series and Hunger Games quickly come to mind.
That’s it for this Quorum Treaty update – back to editing. I am excited to get the Lore of Energy and Light saga out to science fiction fans soon. In the meantime, you can get a taste for the series by reading the Sample Chapter here.
