The first “Sylvan Investigations” novella, that is.
This is the first of the Kickstarted novellas, following after DRAGON JUSTICE, spinning off half-faun PI Danny Hendrickson into his own series.
We sent the file off to backers last week, and I’ve…well, been a little on edge, ever since. Â I got one “I loved it!” from someone I saw at Lunacon (bless her, I may have made her repeat it *g*), and the rest has been…silence.
Probably, I know, that’s because they haven’t had a chance to read it yet. Â Or they’re not the sort to gush. Â Or…they hated it. Â Ack.
*does NOT hide under the bed, damn it*
Note: this is not me looking for reassurances. Â Okay, maybe it it. Â But it’s okay. ;-)Â
I’m really hoping they like it.  I’m really hoping they’re looking forward to the next installment (PROMISES TO KEEP, currently in production).  I’m really hoping they like them both enough that I get to write the 3rd novella, which in my head is called SOME MISTAKE…
Whatever happens, though, this was – and is – one of the more enjoyable Publishing Aventures I’ve had, working with my very own team of stalwart freelancers and lunatics. Â The fact that none of them throttled me may be a small miracle. Â :-)
(and yes, the novellas will be available to the open market this winter, so if you missed the Kickstarter, you’ll get a second chance)
Best of luck and success, Laura Anne. I am sure your patient readers will find favor with it. :)
I just haven’t gotten to it yet, but I’m sure I’ll love it! :D
I haven’t commented because I haven’t gotten to it yet. What you didn’t see what my in-chair-happy-dance as I saw the email come in (then I immediately downloaded it).
I’m still peeved over some of the events in Dragon Justice (which I’m sure had given you some evil-writer-creator type laughs as you wrote it).
