The good news is that there’s been quite a bit of movement again today on ‘pages to completion’, so definitely coming out of that phoney war! So here’s the update on “Completed Today”—
- a further 4020 words completed—75% new words written, 25% revised material incorporated with the new;
- 1 further chapter completed (and a further chapter begun);
- Total Pages Until Completion: 62 plus Glossary.

If you haven’t seen it already, my friend Mary Victoria has just been gifted a fabulous book trailer for her Chronicles of the Tree series. You can check it out here. So much fun!
And if you “like”, do click through to Mary’s site here and tell her so!

My friend and fellow Supernatural Underground author, Nicole Murphy, is about to host a guest blog series in July on Dreams and Fulfillment to celebrate the release of Rogue Gadda, the third and final novel in her Dreams of Asarlai trilogy. I shall be contributing a guest post and although I haven’t decided exactly what I’ll be writing about yet I am looking forward to coming up with an angle that will do justice to the topic—and contribute to the auspicious launch of Rogue Gadda!

Competition Reminder:
Don’t forget that this is the final week of the month-long “Birthday of the Blog” competition for 3 sets of grand book giveways: Epic Fantasy, YA Fantasy, & NZ Poetry.
You can read the full details here. The competition closes this Thursday 30 June at midnight, NZ time. The results will be announced here on the blog on Saturday 2.
The trailer for the Chronicles of the Tree series is so lovely. It makes me wish I had already bought the first book. ><
A wonderful trailer and a tribute to Mary, I feel, to have inspired so much wonderful creativity in other media.
Thanks for the update! Going to check out the book trailer now!
Hope you enjoyed!
Thanks so much for the shout-out, Helen… hugely appreciated. 🙂
A pleasure, ma’am …
Woo hoo! Only 62 pages to go! the end is in sight. A magnificant effort in such ‘turbulent times’! Hope you have a nice bottle of something special put aside ready for 0 pages to go 🙂
I am so looking forward to those zero pages to go. I finished Part 4 late this afternoon, but now need to review and polish the last 3-4 chapters of that. However, there’s only the final 3 chapters of Part 5 (the ultimate part!) left to go in a ‘raw’ form. But of course, I want to change the ending … 😉
Wow – you have been busy!
The book trailer was awesome.
Jan, I can safely put my hand on my heart and say that I am working like a trojan!
And the book trailer was indeed awesome. Now I want one for when Gathering comes out … I like the idea of it being done from the art as well, rather thna too much “like a movie”—I guess because a book is not a movie and I think using the art work captures that subtlety while still being evocative and enticing.
Go Helen Go!!! Wow not long now …..
I’m a goin’ — like a go-ey thing!!
lovely art work in that trailer 🙂
“I know”—I confess to being just a tad envious of the “Weta effect.” 😀
What a great trailer. Looks awesome.
“I know.” Just love the whole effect, artwork, music, atmosphere …
