Get a good team together. I have a content editor, copy editor, and cover artist, and format designer. For indie author's, that's expensive, but it's our goal to produce the highest quality product we can. Listen to them.
Also, make a business plan. Set goals. If you don't met those goals, adjust them and try again.

I'm currently working on a Light of Stars and Fire Tale called 'A Seed of Three.' You may have noticed the cover on my Twitter or Facebook page. Copy editing is nearly complete and there's some final elements we're putting into play. A Seed of Three takes place during The Shattering of Chains and it's a completely different part of the world. In some ways, it's darker, faster paced, more gritty. People who assist in production love the characters, and I hope you will, too.
Also, I have the direct sequel of 'The Shattering of Chains,' titled 'The Harvest of War' in progress. I'm about 6 chapters into the writing for that. There's at least 2 more books and a Tale to come in the series. We'll see how it all turns out.

I love fantasy and science fiction. I love the concept of these strange worlds and the idea that magic and science can co-exist. I'm a huge fan of science, philosophy, theology, art, and literature and work to blend them together whenever I can. All of my work has a theme to it that asks a question and makes me think. I wonder if it'll make you think, too. So, I spend some time getting caught up in current events or doing research, I might read a fiction book for a time, and then I throw on some music and go! I like tunes that jive a beat or reflect a story, like classical music and soundtracks. And I let the creativity flow.
