The new book is officially underway! There's no name for this particular book yet, but the series will be the Wind Word series. I've got an eleven page outline written to help guide the series along the course I expect it to take. The hero's name is Silas. The first sentence of the plot outline reads: "Opening scene, a man (Tella) watches his son (Silas) and other youths in a mountain village (Brigamme) play hide and seek tracking games."
