Elves, anyone?

I'm currently at work on the sixth installment of my Dark Elves series.

For those who don't know, this is the last book I plan to write about the elves. Now, that's not to say that I deny the possibility of returning to their world again. Far from it. I've spent a lot of time in that world now and it'd be a shame to waste it. But, I've taken the elves through over two centuries of time now and I've just about "finished" the story I set you to tell.

Ha. That makes it sound like I had it all planned out from the beginning. I cannot make that claim. Oh, I had ideas, but I can't say I had it all planned. When I wrote book 3, I left some clues toward a future that could be cool. I had some ideas in mind. But, my characters being my characters (read: belligerent, headstrong and too smart for their own good), they threw me some curve balls. Books 4, 5 and, now, 6 have some bits from what I'd planned but they've turned out to be much more. Which is way cool.

It's strange to me to be working on the end of the series that started off this writing stint for me. But, four years later for me and two centuries for them, the elves have taken me on quite a ride and, because of that, they are and always will be near to my heart.

So, be on the lookout for Dark Elves IV: Awakening later this year sometime. I hope you like it.
