For those of you that know me, I love a little retro funk, much of which inspired the design for Fiction Faze and other graphic design projects, but more recently I've been inspired by modern retro beats, specifically, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour. If I'm not mistaken, they're a Swedish band with a retro revival feel and a funky sense of style, and I'm basically in love with them. And as with most anything I'm in love with, I have to share it or I'll stay bursting at the seams... which tends to be somewhat uncomfortable.
As far as "Galactic Epics" are concerned, I've been quite busy. I've slaved over my Prologue with obsessive care and hopefully the big guy with the "Ok" stamp lets me move forward and get this book done! I was so freakin' proud of myself I got the powers that be to approve a post of my Prologue, which I pray you'll like. It hasn't even gone out to beta groups yet, so you're the pre-preview group. Btw, if you're interested in being a beta, a guinea pig for the book, send me a private message and you'll receive the novel in chapter segments to preview and provide your feedback. The publisher assembles their own beta groups but in the end I'm the one who has to make the changes, so I'd like some input from my own pool of supporters. You'll have to offer up an electronic signature for a non-disclosure agreement on general content and that you won't sell it or anything, all legal fluff, I'm not especially concerned about that actually.
Yuppers, so if you haven't already, blip on over to my Current Project page to access the Prologue and tell me what you think. I'm excited to post character profiles in the coming week so you'll get an idea on the tone of the novel and the sort of snarky, loud-mouthed, enigmatic characters pepper the manuscript.
Wishing you all the best. Until next time,
Ama
A sample of character profiles to come, this beautiful piece was done by the very talented Jeremy Grayson for the character Allianora.
