THE CHOSEN: Second Draft Completed & Excerpt from Chapter's 1-2

Cover Art By Greg Opalinski

I competed the second draft of my new adult science fiction novel, The Chosen, today. It won't be published until later in February or early March because I need to edit it one more time. Also, Greg Opalinski still has some work to do on the cover; it will be different than what you see above.

I'm extremely pleased with this novel and am very excited to bring it to you. It will be published, as my other works have, on Amazon.com as well as other Amazon sites around the globe.

I've also put a new link on the Bob's Books page for The Chosen. It's an excerpt of the first two chapters from the book. You can take a look by clicking on the Bob's Books' tab at the top of this blog page or by clicking on the link below.

BEATRICE & ROOMS Version 2 & Editing and Reviewing THE CHOSEN for Publishing in February

ROOMS & BEATRICE: Version 2 Revisions

 

I've just created version 2 of Rooms and Beatrice. For Rooms, only the first chapter was revised. In Beatrice, the changes were more extensive. Also, the changes to Beatrice were to get it ready to enter the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Contest, which is in February. There hasn't been a notice yet for the 2015 contest on Amazon's Createspace website, but it should be there soon. I'll let you know how that progresses as it gets closer. Last year, Rooms made it to the second round. We'll see how Beatrice fairs. 


THE CHOSEN

The first draft of The Chosen is finished. Now I can get back to work on doing all the editing so that I can publish it sometime in February. I'm very excited about this book and looking forward to completing it.

Once The Chosen is published, I will look for some other contests to enter and go back to work seeing if I can interest an agent in my work. Last time I worked on that, I received some good reviews from some of the agents, but still haven't found one that will take me as their client. I'll keep looking, and I'm going to look for some publishing companies and agents in Europe as well as America.

Over 6000 Pageviews on my Blog & BEATRICE's Latest Review from Amazon

I just went over 6,000 pageviews on the blog since 11/22/2013!

Below, I've place the latest review of Beatrice from Amazon.

5 Stars

This was a great read and it kept me guessing...

This was a great read and it kept me guessing as to what was going to happen next. This novel is unique because it has an interesting way of time sequencing events from the eyes and perspectives of all the main characters, including the really nasty ones. Everyone will enjoy the twists and turns and the unexpected ending to this book - I do believe there will be a sequel - there better be - I want to see what happens to "Little B".
