Michael’s comments from the Mageborn group.

I'm working on it but I don't have a timeline for you yet. My goal is to have it out within twelve months, but it might be sooner than that.

Thanks Kyle, I'm glad you enjoyed them. :-)

I will do my best. :-)

Hello Michael, as the autor do you have any particular moment that you just love more than any other in the series?"

I think the moment when Mordecai and Penny are reunited, during the showdown with Celior. Mort's greeting there makes me chuckle every time I think of it.

Honestly though, the series is full of moments like that for me. I just enjoy finding out which ones the readers really connected with.

I have to admit that scene is one of my favorites as well.

And I can see a few spots above where I somehow omitted them!

The best part is yet to come Ferial! The ending of Archmage Unbound is definitely the high point of the series thus far.

About the commas... my original problem was that I used them too frequently. As you know, there are places where they are required but they can also be added in spots simply to denote a pause in the cadence of the sentence. I had a tendency to use them very frequently (while not using ellipses at all).

My early readers (old friends), helped to break me of that habit, but now I find that I am underusing them. We'll see how I do in the fourth book. I look forward to sharing it with everyone.

Nothing specific yet, but within a few months I hope.

Thank you for the kind words. I still struggle with the commas, but with each new book I get more help with the editing, so cross your fingers. :-)
