The Books?
Vel - did I read something somewhere that you had some books out re Candle'Bre?
If so - what websites sell them?
Also - any Beta versions available yet?

They're not quite ready for prime time yet, but I am gathering a small reading group together to get feedback on what we've got.
One book is currently ready for a reading (a beta version, as you said).
The other three should be in that state by the end of the weekend.
If you're interested, shoot me a PM...ideally, I'd like to get a round table of six readers established...currently, I've got three, so there's still some "space" available...

I can confirm that the story is very good - having read it already.
They are done, other than the final editing, cleanup and consistency check.
Take that TCO!

He's got "Tapestries" just now, and I should have the trilogy itself cleaned up enough to start making the rounds by the end of the weekend (planning to go to kinko's and print a couple copies myself in preparation for the big acid test...the read-aloud....*scared*
Good luck and happy reading! My fingers and toes shall be crossed!

One round of editing on the rest of the books is now complete. They're ready to send to the reading group as needed.

Apologies for the delay...I caught the creeping crud at the office, then gave it to my wife, so we've both been miserable for a bit, but that seems behind us now, and I've been able to do the additional edits we've found thus far. Nugog, I just sent book I your direction!

I've finished the first round of editing on book one, and am moving along to book two, but of course, there's still plenty of time to get your ideas and recommendations in....really, we've only just started.

Was I wrong in thinking you were going to resend Book 1 - the post editing version?
Please let me know - as I have been holding off starting the version I have.

My apologies sir...I sent it out, but I'm guessing that it never made it to you....didn't see this right away as I had another bout that put me back in the hospital, but I am back now, and will resend it this evening!
