I should have known that Venom was going to be trouble till the end. As some of your may know, my original editor needed to take time off to deal with a bunch of RL stuff. The months stretched out into a year and I finally made the difficult decision to seek out another editor whilst my 'own' did her thang. Recommended to me, we finally got Venom into the mill and started working at a decent pace.
Then the wall sprung up.
Again.
Due to unforeseen personal reasons, my replacement editor needed to step away from the table. I stared at Venom and gave him the evil eye. What the heck was up with this dude anyway? So, now in a panic that he may never come to see the light of day, I contacted my 'own' editor again through a friend and was much relieved to find out that not only was she available again, but more than willing to jump in and save the day! *wipes sweat from brow* Thank GOD for Kimi.
So here we are, over a year after the last word was put to the page, and we are once again moving at a pace. I'm almost afraid to give an anticipated release time because every time I've put one out there, it's come back to slap me in the face. What I will say is that we have 32 chapters of 50 done; the artwork for the cover is done; and we *should* have things under control and almost ready by summer.
I really like this book...I really do. More so than Sagittary (and that's really saying something, because I absolutely LOVE Darien and his herd...). As the old 70's saying used to go: Hang in there baby, Venom's coming.
