I’ve been happily promoting The Necromancer’s Apprentice since it came out a month ago, which has been easy to do after reading the lovely reviews it’s had so far! I’ve also been posting Friday flash stories set in the world of the novella for the past few weeks, to give you a taste of the kind of story you can except from the book.
I’m also halfway through a blog tour to both promote the book and hopefully provide something a bit more useful. In case you’ve missed any of the posts, here’s where I’ve been this week!
On Monday, I discussed the creation of fantastical creatures on the Dark Continents blog, which is particularly pertinent due to the presence of Wolfkin in The Necromancer’s Apprentice. I took the tales of the Cynocephali as my starting point…what will you choose?
On Tuesday, I answered questions by Nerine Dorman on her blog. In particular, she asked me how death works in the world of the novella, and what motivates my eponymous apprentice.
Wednesday saw me talk about what goes into a villain on Tracie McBride‘s blog, in which I had to be super careful not to start gushing about Maleficent (as I’m wont to do). I’m quite fond of my own villain, in this case the necromancer general, Eufame Delsenza.
On Thursday I stopped by at Carrie Clevenger’s blog, where she asked me some fun questions about the novella. So if you want to know about the necromancer general, or the mummies in the story, this is the place to go!
Friday saw me hop over to Sonya Clark’s blog for her Author Spotlight, where she asks me about my writing process, and what inspired the story.
I’ll be appearing a few places next week as well, but in the meantime, I hope everyone has a brilliant weekend!
Have your say!
