REVIEWS

REVIEWER,: STEVE PATTERSON
I had the pleasure of previewing Knighthawk. This book is a great read, well written with believable characters. It's a tale that just about everybody can identify with and enjoy. Michael Webber, the lead character, is an ordinary man who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. These circumstances kept me glued to this book till the end. I certainly hope there is a sequel!

My final draft

I've had a lot of people ask me when they can expect to read Knighthawke. I've sent my final draft to Publish America. I've also sent the dedication, author bio, disclaimer, acknowledgments, back cover text and photos. So they have everthing in hand. Here is their response:

I have downloaded all of your attachments and everything opened just fine. I have sent your file on to productions. They will contact you when they assign an editor/proofer to your manuscript. Your book will follow the schedule outlined on the AQ web page: http://www.publishamerica.com/AQ/#12. I'm sorry I can't give you a date of any kind at this time, and your proofer might be several months more before they contact you, but after that the pace will pick up.

So now I wait for an editor/proofer to read it and contact me. I was as disappointed as anyone to read that it might take several months. I was hoping for a Christmas release. A number of people have said that they are anxious to read Knighthawke and I am anxious to get it read. However, it was 2 1/2 years in the writing so I guess I can wait another couple of months. As soon as I hear from them I will let ya'll know. Thanks to everyone for your interest and support.

In the meantime I will not be idle. Knighthawke ends in a cliffhanger so there has to be a Knighthawke II. I am currently working on that project. It's going a little faster than Knighthawke because the characters and plot are pretty much set. That's good news because when you finally get a chance to read Knighthawke you won't have to wait that much longer to see how the cliffhanger turns out

While you're waiting to read it and I'm anxious to have you read it let's remember that patience is a virtue. This will happen in God's due time. (James 4:13-15)

While you're here take time to scroll down to read a synopsis of Knighthawke and find out how to post a comment to let me know that you were here. Please do post a comment even if you just leave your name and say, "hi."
