Queen of Time

UPDATE (1/2/12): Queen of Time is now available as an e-book at most online bookstores, and as a paperback at Amazon

*****

It's been a long time coming, but my beta reader is nearly finished with checking the text for the novel I'd originally called Faustine, but have now decided to entitle Queen of Time to avoid conflict with an existing work recently published. It amazes (and naturally delights) me that no one seems to have used the title before. 

Here's the cover design, which needs a few tweaks but is pretty much the final version:


I like the gravitas and elegance of the painting, and the wonderful way it left space for the title and my name. Queen of Time will be digitally available for Amazon and many other e-stores in a week or so, and once that happens I'll be posting an excerpt from the novel on this blog. 


And now that that's wrapping up, I'm on to the next project, a story based on a book that made the semi-finals of the first Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award competition back in 2008. Much more on the way!
