Okay, it’s official, I’m launching DARON’S GUITAR CHRONICLES.
It’s a serialized novel that never would have worked as a traditional print novel because it was too long.

And no, don’t worry, this isn’t going to take me away from The Prince’s Boy. The Daron stuff is already written — I started writing it back in grad school and finished in 2000. Many publishers have seen it and praised it, but never could figure out a way to publish it that made sense. So I’m doing it myself. Like a webcomic, without pictures…
