Who knows, maybe my readers won’t have to wait quite so long for Book Three.įay Annis opened the patio doors and stepped out of her living quarters into the night. I learned so much writing this story that will stand me in good stead when writing my next work. I am very proud of this book, so all the hardships I endured to finish writing it were well worth it in the end. Nevertheless, the end result is all the better for it. The Apprentice In The Master’s Shadow is considerably longer than I envisaged, not least because the characters took the story to places I hadn’t planned for it go.

In many ways it was a more arduous experience, and certainly a more time-consuming one. When I began writing this novel I thought I would have a much easier time than I did when I wrote my debut novel. And, finally, thank you to the people who have supported me and my writing.
