It's an absolute pleasure to congratulate CD Coffelt (aka Huntress :) with the release of her new book, WILDER MAGE.
The earthquake wasn’t his fault. Not this time.
Justus Aubre is a wilder. A mage unbound to the Imperium, and therefore a dangerous wild card in their eyes. The Imperium wants him, wants his power, but Justus has hidden for many years and now has some semblance of a normal life. All that’s about to change when Sable Rounds walks through the door of his antique shop, looking for work. Justus instantly knows what Sable is, he just doesn’t know the danger he’s in.
Alone, also on the run from the Imperium, Sable longs for a normal life. For somewhere to belong. She finds this when Justus hires her, but she knows it’s temporary and fragile, an illusion. Though she hates to think about it, she knows that one day she will have to move on.
The Imperium is always behind her, waiting. When they finally find Sable, they find Justus. And all hell’s about to break loose.
Bio:
Carol Coffelt lives outside Maryville, Missouri with a bemused husband and way too many cats. She adores all things fantasy with a special love for urban and epic.
With a passion for good writing and Doritos as companions, locating Middle-Earth on a dusty road in rural Missouri wasn’t difficult. All it took was a little Magic, hours of reading, and an overactive imagination.

Congrats, Huntress, and may all your dreams come true... and speaking of dreams (as he drives a huge battery-powered Segway through this paragraph:), I'm participating in the Big Dreams Blog Hop, hosted by Mishe Gericke and Beth Fred.
The idea is to update your stated Goal on the last Friday of the month. My current goal is to finish a 75,000 word first draft by Halloween. I started three weeks ago, and have 13,000 words in the bank.
While short of my projected mark, I am indeed 13k richer in words than the beginning of August, so that's a score:)
You can join in this monthly Blog Hop here.

13K in three weeks is not shabby. Not shabby at all.
Congrats, Carol, on the book release!
I'm seeing CD's book everywhere. Way to spotlight her, Mark.
And 13K? Woo Hoo! Excellent progress on the WIP.

13,000 already is awesome! Have an awesome weekend.
Cheers,
Keith
Congratulations to Carol!
And I have no doubt you will hit your mark. Well, you are a Mark, so I guess you already did...
I'd be seriously thrilled with 13K in three weeks. Way to go, Mark!
Sounds like a cool bloghop. I should look into it.
And congratulations to you, Carol. I've been seeing your book all over the blogosphere, and that's so great. Best of luck with it.

I am so happy for my friend Carol! I read Wilder Mage in an earlier stage and it was very good then so I expect it's pretty darn awesome by now :)
Congrats, Huntress.
Good luck on your October goal sir!
This sounds like a blog hop I need to look into. I can always use the motivation factor in my writing/life.
@SP and Alex - Thank you, thank you times three
@ML and MJ - Great to hear Wilder is making the rounds. *Snoopy Dance*
@Marcy - *heart to you*
Thank you, Mark. Truly I am blessed to know you.
Carol's book is now another to add to my read list. Thanks for the intro.
As for writing 13K is pretty impressive.

Congrats to Carol on her book! I also loved her bio, how she's finding Middle earth in Missouri. :)
Well, you did it - got me to sign up for another bloghop, but I really love this one! Great goal setting challenge!
Congratulations to Carol, and to you 13,000 - awesome!
13K in three weeks is super. I wish I could do that.
Good for you, Mark! That's 13k more than you started with. And it means when I see you next month you should have a good chunk done. You can do it, you can do it, rah rah rah! When you finish your book will you set a new goal?
Oooh. Drat you. There are so many talented writers in the blogosphere and you have just put more temptation in my weak-willed way.
Congratulations Carol - it sounds amazing. And to you to Mark, that is a really impressive number of words.
It's always a score to make progress. I tell myself daydreaming of my new story is working... That will end as soon as my MS comes back from the editor.
13K words in three weeks?
I don't think I even squeezed in 13 this week. *sigh* How do grown ups do all of this stuff?
!3K! 13K! Congrats Mark and to Carol too.
Hey- You're 11k ahead of me. :P
Congrats, Carol. You're story sounds exciting. :)
13K is awwwwwwwesome... SO PROUD of you, Mark. What is your secret???? :-)
And wonderful highlight here. I love to see people living their dreams :)
Love the premise. I've added it to my TBR list.
Excellent stuff, Carol. "The earthquake (wasn't) his 'fault'. Not this time." Okay :)
Well done on your book, my friend.
Another blog hop? *Takes deep breath* ...must stay calm....Wait until I set up the blog hop to end all blog hops, hopefully. And nothing to do with the Mayan calendar. That was so last year!
Aloha and whoa,
Gary :)
That's an awesome word count. I'm such a slow writer. Good luck on reaching your goal.
I love how Carol describes her husband as 'bemused' :-D
Well done on those 13k! You have made a great start! :)
My post for this month is here (scroll to the bottom).
Man, I just hate when I'm on the run, and someone else is on the run and blows my cover! >.< hehe
Sounds like a cool book!
