Burning Bright Reissue
I’m pleased to announce another step toward getting all my backlist reissued as ebooks. Burning Bright, my second novel with Tor, and my first novel to become an ebook, way back in the early 2000s, is once again available as an ebook, this time from Crossroad Press.
I’m actually very fond of this book. I began thinking about it while proctoring a test back in my grad school days, and doodled a map that gave me the physical parameters of the story. It was a bigger, much more sprawling story when I started, but about 3 weeks from the date it was due, I realized that everything needed to be tightened up — I needed to cut subplots, streamline the action, and generally rewrite everything so that the events of the novel took place over a couple of days, not a couple of weeks. The rewrite wasn’t what you would call fun, but it definitely paid off. I’m still really pleased with the results, and in particular with the interwoven game sequences.
One more down, two more to go!
