So
today is a pretty big day for me. It is the cusp of the weekend, Dominion Day
right around the corner... and a friend of mine gets to see the light of day
after a long while in the making.
There
is a lot of work that goes into one of my books. Sure, some people, even
myself, would say that maybe there's not enough... But still, you get the
picture.
I
started down this road... well, a long time ago, now. This character spoke to
me immediately, wanting to be brought to life, to see the world, and show me
his own. I got excited, and tried to bring him out, but apparently I rushed.
Jack
doesn't like to be rushed.
I
can't remember exactly how many times I started this story. I think it was
around four, but I could be wrong. Might have been eight. The point is, Jack's
worlds was one that required a little more finesse than I was used to. I
learned a lot writing this book, and I'm still learning.
Jack
taught me that some things are worth fighting for. He taught me that no matter
how hard it seems, and how hard you get hit, you need to get back up.
This
was one of the hardest stories to write, because it taught me, and fought me every step of the
way. I think, in the end, it was worth the trouble.
I
hope you agree.
So,
it is with great trepidation and a smattering of pride, that I introduce everyone out there to my latest
story. One that I think you will grow to love as much as I have.
Meet
Jack Lantern;
Private
Eye.
Personal
Protection.
Pumpkin-for-a-Head.
The
road ahead is totally awesome... and filled with Pumpkins or something...
