Four pieces of exciting news

Posted on

by Sever Bronny

1. ILLUSTRATOR: I’ve hired an illustrator to start illustrating the trio/other characters for you, perhaps some scenes (if it works out, that is, and you guys enjoy his style). I asked the fan-run discord server to conduct a snap poll as to who you wanted done first, and the overwhelming consensus was . . . drum roll, please . . . Leera Jones! A great choice to start. So I’ve put together a dossier along with a smattering of quotes she said (which some of you kindly helped me collect), and will send it along to the illustrator today.

2. STORE COMING SOON: At long last, after years of questions as to when it will happen, my wife and I are putting together a small print-on-demand store. I’m hoping that these illustrations, along with others, will be put on some merchandise. Hopefully this merch will lead into some really cool and unique stuff that you guys have been asking for for years. More news on all that soon.

3. AUDIOBOOKS SALE: Two out of the four audiobooks for the Fury of a Rising Dragon series are half price for a limited time. You can snag Burden’s Edge here and Champion’s Wrath from the same site here.

4. CHRONICLES OF ANNA ATTICUS STONE, BOOK 3: Anna’s third book, which I will release the title of soon, is coming along swimmingly. Already 140,000 words in. It’s a family-oriented plot that steadily thickens, with one grand adventure in the latter third of the book. As usual when writing, my characters have taken me in a direction I did not anticipate. Anna is no exception, as she is strong and independent woman (she’s forty-nine years old in this book, just prior to taking on the headmistress job).

That’s all for now! Feel free to reply to this if you have any questions or comments :D
All my best to you and those you love, Sever,

The Arinthian Line series (complete): Arcane Riven Valor Clash Legend The Fury of a Rising Dragon series (complete): Burden's Edge Honor's Price Mercy's Trial Champion's Wrath I grew up on Dragonlance and probably spent way too much time playing role-playing games. Then came the video games. But then, Nintendo was life in Toronto of '86. As a matter of fact, much of my youth could be considered "wasted" exploring escapism of one form or another. Now I'm a full-time author living in British Columbia, Canada. I have a wife who taught me what it means to love someone unconditionally. Buddha, my grumpy but rumpled-with-love cat, likes to keep watch from a Lego castle near my desk. (Update: said Lego castle has long been dismantled. Now she basks under a sun lamp). I suppose my favorite sagas are Harry Potter, Ender's Game, Lord of the Rings, Narnia, and Game of Thrones. I also love true-life survival tales like Into Thin Air, Shadowdivers, and Perfect Storm. As for movies, I regularly re-watch Bladerunner, Star Wars, Highlander, Aliens, Limitless, Edge of Tomorrow, Interstellar, Lost in Translation, and Margin Call. But I've been most inspired by Harry Potter. Seriously, because if it hadn't been for HP, I'd never have dared. I simply stood on the shoulders of a giant. Thank you for writing that story, Joanne Rowling, it was extremely re-readable. I can only hope to capture my readers' imagination as you have captured mine. When I was a kid, I dreamed I could spread my arms as wings, jump off the ground, and fly. My head was in the clouds (and in many ways, still is). It would be fair to say that my love of fantasy began then, steadily refined by movies, video games, and cozy books. As for me, I enjoy talking to my readers, so if you read one of my books, you're welcome to shoot me an email at severbronny@gmail.com. Throw me a question, comment, or just say hello. I blog at severbronny.com when the mood strikes me, and I'm on social media now and then. I don't publish too often, but you can subscribe to my newsletter to receive a notification when I do release new work (newsletter signup is at severbronny.com/contact). (I was also a musician at one time, having released three albums with my industrial-rock band Tribal Machine.) When all is said and done, I know how fortunate I am to be a full-time author. I think about it often--especially when I recall what it was like working the grind. Thus I humbly thank each and every reader for supporting my work.
