Preteen spin-off

I've finished the first book of the preteen spin-off. Cover's completed too. Now waiting for the final touches, the pre-publication activities before the actual launch of the book.

Kay and Hank, two of the kids in the bonus chapter of The Dark Warriors are the stars of this adventure. The two boys accompany Mike and Matt in their adventures. I excluded Kay and Hank in the original version of the tale, but it seemed lacking until I added these two kids in to wreak havoc.

The second book of Tween Tales is already in the works. Or at least, I've completed a rough sketch of what is to happen in there, with the input of my preteen sons who told me what they wanted their heroes to encounter in the next story.

While The Dark Warriors is a romance for teens and young adults, with a happy ending which is where Kay and Hank come in, this new series, Tween Tales, is for younger readers who would like the fantasy elements in the original series, but for whom the romantic elements are inappropriate.

I hope to launch the book in time for Christmas. There's going to be a new website for that series. Bookmark this blog as I'll keep you updated on the progress on both the Sfxfantasy Series and the Tween Tales series.
