Novel Number Two!
🕑 Added 2020-09-03 15:54:42 +0000 UTCThis novel, called Old Hand Steel, took 2+ years to write. Not necessarily because it was a complicated story, but because I only wrote a little bit each day. This was the warm-up story before I would write either From Ruin or The Last Prayer. I just finished the final draft and I'll be working on a moderately decent cover art.
This coincides with the next update of The Last Prayer(ch34) which should be this weekend. I just finished the 1st draft and it's nearly 15K words. After edits and revisions, it'll likely be around 15.5K. I'm planning on finishing the cover for the novel around the same time I finish TLP edits so that I can upload both contents online.
I wanted to share this novel with you guys because I'm deeply grateful for your support and I don't think you should have to pay for a copy on Amazon. I would ask, if you're able, to leave a review on the book's Amazon page because reviews would really REALLY help.
For a summary: This story is about a teenage boy doing everything possible to help his mom from the Spartan society that banished her in the first place. In this magical society, only strength and status matter, and our hero, Macyn Blende, has neither.
It's a fantasy set in modern-day and it's 280 pages, so not too large. Again after I update The Last Prayer, if those of you kind enough to read it leave a review(I have thick skin so please be candid. It's the best way to get better), I would really appreciate it!
Please stay safe out there, --Grae
P.S. I'm using the name Santana Bazil instead of Grae Foxx because this novel is for young adults and up, and I can't have the kiddies finding my bag of lemons ;)

Hey, Tom. Yeah, I got word from AO3 that I violated their policies so, I had to remove stuff from the author's notes. They're reviewing it now. If it's all good, they'll make it viewable again.

Yes. Thus far, it's only in outline format. I haven't fleshed it all out yet.

I'll get one to you after I finish uploading the new update. It should've been out much earlier today, but my internet was acting up.

Just sent you $30.00 to your venmo for the book. Two years of work deserves compensation. Keep at it!👍🏼 “Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier; wish you were better." —Jim Rohn
