Working on cleaning it up aka editing on this one. Hoping to finish it soon. The delay has been creating scenes and portraits. I want to release this book in COLOR and have lots and lots of pictures.
What kind? This is Lynsa; Prince Linnell's love interest.
And this one; Lady Teloive (woodland witch) creating a transmutation spell using fire runes.
I'm creating portraits of this book's important characters.
IF... IF I can do it in color and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg, I'll re-do book 1 which has a "few" black and white images. Eh. They were okay, but color does the images so much better.
Will it help sell books? I certainly hope so. I have discovered today's youth are image-oriented, and especially with color images. Yes, I know, animation is even better, but have you attempted to place animation in a book? Hm? Something to think about down the road. For e-books, it would work, paperbacks will take a little more evaluation.
Okay, just three more characters and this blog post is done. I'm not showing the main characters of the novel - Trel and Nori... although if you look at the image of Lady Teloive, Trel is sitting at the table.
This is Guardsman Senior Ahsey of the Royal House of King Ariello.
This is King Ariello, ruler of Yorela, the surviving seaside kingdom of the legendary Adavinya.
What fantasy world can exist without an evil wizard? I give you, Zalran, Royal Wizard.
Trust me, you haven't even seen the tip of the iceberg of characters...
Trel - groomsman and guardian/mentor of Prince Linnell.
Linnell - obviously the prince, son of King Ariello
Nori - the half-breed albino engaged to Trel
Luap - good wizard from the legendary west edge of Adavinya
Arual - Luap's daughter
Rizell - thief, sort of a Robin Hood type
Bringel - Rizell's #1 right-hand man
Asena - princess, daughter of King Ariello
... and so many more.
Until next I ramble on...
