Horselords: Kimi and Davrael’s Romance Unveiled

6 Comments

Another novella in my Wolves of Vimar prequels. This one is number 4, and is called Horselords. It tells of how Kimi and Davrael met.

It went for editing, but the next thing I knew, I heard that it was being formatted. I can only assume that the edit went well and there was nothing untoward found. That’s amazing, but I must thank the people on Scribophile who helped by critiquing it.

I accepted the formatting, and today received the suggested blurb and cover.

I rejected both!

The blurb mentioned nothing about the romance between Davrael and Kimi and the difficulties they had. This is mainly what the book is about so it should be in the blurb.

The cover showed a girl looking much younger than Kimi, who is 16 at the beginning. Her clothing is wrong, not what she would have worn, and the horse isn’t the piebald Kimi rides. So I can’t actually show you anything.

Apologies for that, but as soon as I get something suitable, you will be the first to see it.

I have a review to post, but I wanted to tell you where we are with the publishing.

  1. Ah, life in the fastlane when you have a publisher who “knows best”! Been there, done that. I prefer to run my own show. It’s more work and I don’t get the exposure a publisher can provide but I’m trying and learning! Best of luck once your book’s right and ready to go out into the world! RJ 😉

  2. I think it’s important to be happy with the book before you publish it. Once it’s “out there” it’s not so easy to undo some things you aren’t happy with. Hang in there until you get it the way you want it to be.

        1. Yes, it is. Maybe they did, but thought Kimi’s escape from her kidnappers would be more of a hook, when that’s only the trigger for her to meet Davrael, who rescues her. Then they fall in love but both sets of parents disapprove. That’s what it’s really about.
