Earlier this summer my oldest sister, Diane, passed. She was the one who I played Dungeons and Dragons with when I was younger, she also introduced me to the path of publishing and writing. It’s safe to say, I wouldn’t be an indie publisher/writer if not for her. Enough time has passed that I’m much more grateful for her life than I’m saddened for her death.

Community is a word that’s been on my mi

Jamie McFarlane answered Kathleen Deaver's question: I was wondering if in the last three years you had considered writing Drakon Prince #2? I am reading it now and was hoping it was the first of a series. Hi Kathleen - I'm working on getting publishing rights back for that novel. Once I have it, I'll likely write more in this series. I have a pair of similar litrpg Wizard Prince, A King's Claim that will be out in 2026. They are in the same universe, See Full Answer
