It’s done! That’s right. I finally completed all my edits for Book 3 in the Drake Eldorado series, Origin. As of now this will be the final installment of that series/trilogy. I am currently getting in touch with my book cover designer, Dawn Dominique, so this project can move forward. I am hoping to have this book available by mid-August and no later. That goal remains to be seen but rest assured, Origin is now on the fast track to get into your hands soon.
Beyond the business of writing and getting my work out there for the consumer it is exciting to know that my characters, my interpretation of stories and the world we live in as well as my legacy of the word is getting read. For me, my writing isn’t just a simple story no matter how fantastic it may seem in a surreal sense. My stories (more specifically, Drake Eldorado) is a reflection of not only the self in ways but also of the perilous world that we live in. It aint rainbows and flowers out there. Our overall civilization is coming to a head. We are so divided on so many issues with the prompting of the powers-that-be who keep poking us with sticks (soundbites, negative music, negative movies, divisive politics, drowning us in debt, etc.). The tale of Drake Eldorado and what he must confront is no less real than the bullshit facts that the media claim to be accurate. There is the real world and the ribbon that runs alongside that is merely an interpretation of it. In essence they are one and the same with near identical results.
Before I go too far forward with my thinking I just want to say “Thanks” to everyone who has supported me. Now let’s get this book cover designed and ready for you to read!
