Hal’s Tale:
So what’s it all about then? Well in short Hal’s Tale is a classic fairy tale that I wrote for my daughter Eve. Good versus evil with witches and wizards, swords and shields, magic and well not magic!
To be honest it started out as a small five page piece of work and before I knew it I was back writing again and it suddenly exploded to the short fictional work it is today.
Short Versus Long:
Originally the published work was going to be entitled: [Hal’s Tale: The Short Version].
In fact this was its working title for many months whilst I was being constantly asked by Eve ‘Is it finished yet Daddy?’. To speed the whole thing up I decided to break the full length novel into three parts, namely so I could finally tell Eve that it was finished.
The first short story tells of the origins of our Tale’s beginnings, of three brothers exiled for their strange powers and a building evil that leads to an epic battle between two kings.
Updates:
This page will now be the home to the Snow Depth trilogy material, pop back form time to time to see how things are going on the next instalment.
For those that read the first part of the trilogy, yes Gen's Tale is coming and has been part written. Unfortunately, life work and other issues have got in the way. Other projects have also been prioritised above this one.
The itch of other projects and ideas just had to be scratched but never fear. Gen's Tale will make an appearance soon.
Submissions:
So, it is done. The first three chapters have been locked and loaded, and the editing team have kicked off the submission phase to agents.
It's been some time since I last did this part, and I have to admit that it is pretty exciting. I also have to admit that F5 has been abused somewhat as of late, as I continuously refresh the Gmail account waiting for an update.
Fingers crossed one of the many excellent agents and publication houses out there will like what they read, and offer to read some more.
