Timelost Storyteller June Newsletter
Hello Readers, Fans, Dark Fantasy Enthusiasts, and Very Brave Souls! This is the June Edition of my newsletter.
Megacon Orlando happened recently and that aided me in looking into new potential markets. I also worked on stories in two different anthologies that will be published sometimes in the near future. More about that below!
Dark Fantasy is in contrast to High Fantasy, the more stereotypical flavor of this genre. In High Fantasy, Magic is a wonderful thing taught to wizards safely in schools made for this purpose. Society may suffer conflict, but minus the drive in the story, the world tends to be a fairly stable place. In Dark Fantasy the Magic is dangerous if not worse, society is crumbling assuming its not already at a dystopian state, and there is a general sense of despair and hopelessness that fills the world showcased in the medium.
Because I continue to be asked what Dark Fantasy is exactly and as a result of me deeming the paragraph above to be a strong explanation, I have elected to continue leaving this in the newsletter.
Happening in June
The End of Utopia, Book 1 in the Search for Eden Series is nearly complete. Edits continue on the next book in the Search for Eden Series.
I continue to have articles published on Odyssey Online. I have gotten the chance to expand on different topics and whatnot.
I will be working continuously on completing the next book in the Search For Eden Series: The Messiah of Nightmares. My hope is to get The End of Utopia and its sequel novel published in rapid succession.
Anthology Updates
I have completed my part in two different anthologies for this month. The first is titled: Thrill of the Hunt with Laura Perez as the one leading the show. The other is titled Demonic Anthology Vol 2 Demonic Household: See Owner’s Manual with Valerie Willis as the original idea creator. I will share more news of where you can get these novels once they are published
