Weaver’s Stone Proof!

Published by Shannen Colton on August 29, 2019

There’s nothing like holding your book in your hand for the first time! This is just a proof copy for my beta readers, so the book isn’t ready quite yet (and this is just a placeholder cover), but I’m stoked to see it in print!!

A tiny preview of the inside 🙂

Another announcement on the Weaver’s Stone front: I officially started writing Book Two of this series just a few days ago, which is an announcement in itself. Weaver’s Stone will have a sequel! (And possibly two, but I’m not sure yet if this will be a two or three book series).

I’m also hoping to have a little surprise ready for Between the Light and Dark in the not-too-distant future, so stay tuned for that as well!

From One to Another

Published by Shannen Colton on April 28, 2019

Hello, dear readers!

Just last night I finished reading through my husband’s upcoming epic fantasy trilogy. This was my first time reading the final book, and upon reaching the end I was reduced to an emotional ball of tears on the couch. So, needless to say it was AMAZING and I can’t wait for it to be published so we can all cry together :’) Seriously an incredible series that just got better and better and culminated in one of the most epic things I’ve ever read. I hope you’re all excited for it!

And now, of course, it’s time for me to jump back into my own story and work on Weaver’s Stone revisions! I’m stoked to get back to it (even if dear husband’s story is a tough act to follow, hoo). More updates to come!

First Draft: Complete

Published by Shannen Colton on March 10, 2019

I knew it would be slow-going, but the day is here! I finished my first draft for my next book! It’s a new story in a new place, so while a book set in the same world as Between the Light and Dark may come about sometime in the future, we’re in for a whole different experience this time. Hope you’ll stay tuned! For now the working title is Weaver’s Stone.

Up next for me, I’ll be doing a read-through of an epic fantasy trilogy my husband has been working on, then it’s onto the editing for Weaver’s Stone.

Here’s a look at the journal I’ve been filling with writing notes as I go. No peeking, dear readers!

Chilling Tales Kickstarter

Published by Shannen Colton on July 12, 2018

Hey guys!

My husband is part of a project to create a new anthology of short horror stories, titled Chilling Tales for Dark Nights. “A fully-illustrated eBook, print and audio book anthology of original, folklore-inspired short scary stories.” The Kickstarter is active now and runs through the end of the month. They’ve already reached their initial goal to create one book, but they’re working toward funding a trilogy. Check it out! 🙂
