Sorry for the delay!

First of all I want to apologize for the delay in Book 11 and the absence from my blog.

About two years ago, just after publishing Book 10, my partner and I were finally able to fulfill a life long dream and become parents. We were placed with a little girl who had just turned one, and she has been such an amazing blessing. I took a few months break from writing, and just as I started working on Book 11 again, we got another phone call. CPS had called to let us know that our daughter's birth mother had just given birth to a baby and they wanted to place him with us. Of course we said yes.

With a toddler and now an infant, my writing had to be set aside. Our son had quite a few issues at birth, so he took more time than a typical newborn.

We just celebrated his first birthday and now I've made it my goal and mission to squeeze out time to finally get back to writing.

I'm happy to say that Book 11 is back underway.  I'm still working on the first draft, but I've carved out a block of time at night after the kids go to sleep and before I go to sleep and so far that has worked out rather well.  I'm almost halfway through the first draft, and I'm hoping to have it published by Thanksgiving of this year.

The other good news is that Book 12 is completely mapped out, so there won't be much of a break between the two. While my editor has Book 11, I will start on Book 12 immediately. I'm hoping to have the final book in the series published around Christmas of this year. So far I have had two good weeks to write and I'm hoping to keep that up.

So about Book 11. The title is Moonstone Dagger, and I think it's going to be a good one. Some really awesome (and sad) things happen in the books to our characters, and I think you will feel the pace starting to pick up. Story time-wise Book 12 picks up immediately after Book 11, and I think you will get that same sense of urgency that the characters are feeling as they race towards the finish line.

I promise from this point forward that I will be better about updates about Moonstone Dagger, the 12th book, and future projects related to this world that I have created.

I will try and post a copy of the cover for Moonstone Dagger. I'm pleased with it so far, and hope to have a final copy soon.

Thank you again for everyone who has messaged me in the past few months. I hope the final two books are worth the wait, and I appreciate you sticking with me through this.

Cover for Book 6 - Second Exodus


I am very pleased with this cover. It shows (from left to right): Cadan, Luca, Tess, Jackson, and Caira. The five Paladin leaders have orchestrated a plan, and this cover shows their united front very well. I especially love the way that Cadan and Caira have linked their magic. Great job Tim!

Look for Second Exodus to be available on Kindle and Nook later this month. I'm a little behind on the paperbacks for Books 5 and 6 so those might not be available until mid-September.

Book 5 - Hounds of the Himalayas has arrived!

I just released Book 5 of DOMA - Hounds of the Himalayas.

This one was a fun one to write because the series is starting to head in a new direction. I love the ending of this one more than any so far. The cover is also one of my favorites so far.
