HoC 4 Udate

Hello All,

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I update facebook, but I don't update here as often. Gotta fix that!

In any case 44/52 chapters are complete for the final go through for book 4! I have 5 more illustrations to do and the art will be complete.

So, hopefully, the book will come out Thanksgiving weekend! :D

Book 4 Update - 7th draft

Hello All,

We were handed back the copy from our first pre-reader. Yay! Mom's finished fixing all the small mistakes. Now we need to discuss cutting chapters and rearranging a few events to make it flow better.

More good news, I've completed all 52 RDs! Now I'm doing the Line Art (or LA). I'm on 18/52. Some of them are really detailed, others are simple. Some have more than 1 subject in them so it gives the readers more to look at.

Mom is also having her books uploaded to other places now: Kobo, Nook, iTunes, 24 Symbols, Page Foundry, Scribd, Toline. (HoC series will be added later.)


Keep happy,

-T. Erickson

HoC Bk 4 Update!

Hello Everyone,

There's a lot going on. We're still working on the 3rd RD of book 4. We're working on setting everything up just right. 
Soooo...we're probably not going to get the book out in June. (Sorry! :( But you understand, you wouldn't want to give someone a half baked pie.) Hopefully we'll have it out by the end of July.

I've got a long list of illustrations to do, 41 so far. Could develop into more. (YIKES!)

Meanwhile, have a funny sketch I did with Sarah and Taps discussing Tippi (tight pants): 

Hope it tickled your funny bone. It made me smile. :D

Siren Call - Cover, Sneak Peek!

Well Ladies and Gents,

Here's HoC bk 4's cover!

That's Sarah on the front. She's looking back at Ransom, her date. She's wearing a special pair of gloves to make her dress more formal. You might recognize the roses in her hair from book two, they were a gift.
Does she look a little different? Her hair has gone from brown to blonde. Why? You'll find out inside the story.

The car behind her is a Rolls Royce limo. And yes, the driver knows exactly what they're doing! It's a SUITE car, and if you've read the series, then you know what this baby can do. BUT, it's not the limo that first chased her. This particular limo is grey.

Behind her is an ice cream parlor: Good E's Ice Cream Shoppe. It's special today is: Rocky Road. (I thought it was a fun gag.)


Hope that tickles your speculation until we can get the book out. We're hoping for June. But we'll see how fast I can get the inside illustrations done.

Shuffled, Hoc bk2 update

We've finished the 2nd draft and are working on the 3rd.

So far, we have over 50 chapters! We're going to be doing a lot of editing. Mom usually likes to stick to thirty chapters or so. This way, the story is full but the readers won't have to feel like they're wading through fluff.

It's part of the challenge the book presents. This magical world is enormous! And even the small things tend to have a story behind them. I actually like all the learning that's done in the SKS classes, I find it fascinating. But, still, we might have to cut some of these classes because it's not important enough to the story.
It's possible we'll post them here. But we'll see.
