I am curious, are you deaf or do you have deaf family members? I was just curious why you chose to create a deaf protagonist.

My main motivation for creating a deaf protagonist was that I wanted a hero that could turn a disability into something magical, into an advantage.

Lots of heroes in comic books and movies have artificial struggles, but I want my characters to struggle with, and overcome, things that are very real and identifiable to the readers.

In short, the people in my stories are real people to me, not characters, and so I want them to face real problems.(less)

I absolutely LOVED "The Fifth Vertex" but it left me desperately wanting more! Do you have any idea when the second book in the Sigilord Chronicles will be available?

I have 2 rounds of professional edits planned, one starting May 15th, the other at the beginning of June. I suspect I will have the final work, including all the artwork, maps, etc ready to go in July.

Pre-orders, however, should be ready by end of April or early May.

I know it's a long process, but I am a perfectionist and I won't publish a book until it's done. That said, the long editing process does give me a chance to get a head start on book three!(less)
