Matthew Edwards's Blog: Goblin Spotters Anonymous - Posts Tagged "siren"

So six days till my book drops. Six days till my first offering to the reading community. And I realized after my last post that I did not leave any information on my story. So here is what my wife had to say about it on Facebook: "It's coming-of-age swords and sorcery story about a teen who has an item stolen from him in the middle of the night. He follows the thief (a goblin, as it turns out) to another dimension where humans are illegal, the old gods of our legends are now faded husks of their glory just trying to stay alive, and the item that he's trying to get back is desperately sought after by the ruling queen of that world - a siren goddess who is chasing immortality."
The only reason I share what Bec said is that it was so wonderfully written that I wish I could go back and replace it with the actual blurb from the back of the book.

So it has been and gone and has been called successful. What does that mean exactly? I sold / signed a lot of books. My wife's hand made dolls of the characters in my book went down a treat. seventy four guests, Rosanne Hawk as a speaker and sixty two sales. I could get used to this. Time to finish my new story... Or a sequel...
