Dragon Noir: Snippet 10

Posted on March 26, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson

You will find the previous snippets here… Great White Hunter I wheezed for air, and managed to hold up my hands so he could see them empty. “Conrad, dammit…” I had to stop and suck wind. “Hellifino who you are.” He boomed, from close range. I was bent over trying not to throw up, and … Continue reading →

Dragon Noir: snippet 9

Posted on March 19, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson

You can find the earlier snippets here…  Morning came far too early, after that late of a night. Ellie didn’t come in with the coffeepot as she often did, and not for the first time I wondered just how connected she was to the house, to know when entering our bedroom would be indiscreet. I … Continue reading →

You can find the other snippets here… First Marriage “I’d been told I’d die, after the elfshot. But hours turned into days turned into months… Mother was concerned about me, I’m sure. But she seemed more concerned that I would die and there would be no one left to carry on the Mulvaney line. Our … Continue reading →

Continuing the War council meeting in the kitchen… You will find the other snippets here.  And for the second time that night, jaws dropped around the table. He smirked, almost hidden under the voluminous beard. “I’m not always a hothead. Sometimes I leave that for the boy, here.” He gestured at me. “First, we must … Continue reading →

Dragon Noir: Snippet Six

Posted on February 26, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson

And the book is done, off to beta readers, and feedback is already coming back. I will have a cover done this weekend, aided by potential bad weather that will trap me in the house so I have to work… or fool around. But I think I’ll at least get the cover done! As always, … Continue reading →

Dragon Noir is Finished!

Posted on February 21, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson • 7 Comments

Well, mostly. I’m sending it out to beta readers this weekend, and it will go to the editors very soon, and there’s no doubt massive re-writing in my future… but it’s done, today. Put the last words on the story. I realized that it’s almost exactly a year from the same thing for Trickster Noir. … Continue reading →

Posted on February 19, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson

And… I’m still not done writing this. I did get work done on it while I was at LTUE, but I have had dual exams since my return. Going to work on it this weekend, and talked to my editor about sending it to him at the end of the month. So I need to … Continue reading →

Dragon Noir: Snippet 3

Posted on February 5, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson • 1 Comment

You can find the first snippets here, and here. As always, this is a raw first draft, and may (certainly will!) contain errors. Feel free to leave me a note in the comments, but this has revisions and editors to see before it is published. Sorry, guys, no cover art yet… probably end of February … Continue reading →

You can find the opening snippet Here…  I am currently still working on the book. I am very close to sending it to beta readers – I hope to wrap it all up with a bow this weekend. It’s been an interesting week so far, as the first days of a semester always are, and … Continue reading →

Dragon Noir: Snippet One

Posted on January 22, 2015 by Cedar Sanderson • 6 Comments

Here it is, the first snippet. I’m not finished writing the book, and I’m not going to finish in time. However, I don’t expect to have it take much longer than I’d originally planned, and the publication will still take place in March if all keeps going to plan. Which it might not. However, I … Continue reading →

A Papery Feel

Posted on December 1, 2014 by Cedar Sanderson • 5 Comments

Welcome! If you’re familiar with my blog, you already know this. I don’t self-promote often. While I do a weekly book review, and will often promo friend’s books, I usually let the sidebar links or the pages devoted to each series do the talking for me. I figure if you’re here more than once or … Continue reading →
