This interview with Sean McGaughey on his For the Sake of the Song podcast is pretty different from my normal spiel… this time, I talk a bit about my songwriting in addition to my writing and “Brave Men Run.”
I hope you’ll enjoy some insight into the other major creative endeavor of my life… and by all means, subscribe to For the Sake of the Song for more eclectic inspections of singer-songwriters!
This is Yvonne Blake, as visualized with the help of a composite illustration program called FACES. Yvonne is a minor character with a big impact on several other characters in the follow-up novel to “Brave Men Run,” “Pilgrimage.”
I was just getting ready to write the piece of the book that includes her, and I needed to know her a little better. I created this image, which helped. Her hair is darker, longer, and more straight in my mind, but my version of the software has limited templates. Figure she’s wearing black jeans, a tee-shirt, and a plain denim jacket.
In any event, I thought I would share her with you!
On Sunday, July 13, 2008, “Brave Men Run — A Novel of the Sovereign Era” is released to the world in a brand new paperback edition from Swarm Press. If you plan on buying a copy of the book, I’m asking you to purchase it from Amazon.com on July 13th… together, we will drive the book as high up the bestseller charts at Amazon as possible, and make “Brave Men Run” and Swarm Press winners right out of the gate!
On that Sunday, I’ll be broadcasting live on streaming video at the top of every hour from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM Eastern Time. During this “web-a-thon,” I’ll give you updates on the book’s sales performance, talk with you in the embedded chat room, and have some very special Sovereign Era content to share, too!
I hope you’ll join me… and I hope you’ll help spread the word! Please add one of these badges to your web page or blog. All you have to do is copy and paste the code below!
