Writer’s Corner: The Female Character, Kickass or Not?

My first professionally published novel hit the stands in January of 2003. As of today, between collaborations with JC and my own books, I have twenty novels in print available in bookstores.

The Noble Dead Saga stars two main female characters: Magiere and Wynn. For me, these two have generated more emails, private messages, and discussion than all of the main male characters combined. I can’t count the messages in one form or another that I’ve received which read:

NOBLE DEAD RAFFLE—The Winners and What’s Next…

Congratulations to  Emilio C. (MX), Carl K. (USA), and Brandi H. (USA). Last names are not used for the sake of privacy. Their signed copies of Witches in Red are in the mail and should arrive (in the USA) within 10 business days. And as to what comes next…

Due to unforeseen complications with international S&H, we will be reviewing additional considerations to compensate sometime in the near future. In the meantime, we must fall back to USA only entrants for the next raffle, which will be something a bit different.

Reader’s Choice Raffle at NobleDead.org

Coming the second week of July (skipping the week of the 4th), the next raffle will let you pick and choose (from selected titles) which book in the Noble Dead Saga you would like if you win. And of course all copies will be first edition and signed by Barb and J.C. Here is your chance to flesh out your collection.

The selected titles for the first coming R.C.R. will be announced when the event opens; watch for it folks and tell your friends. The only hint we can provide right now is that the prizes will all be hardbound editions chosen by Barb and J.C. This form of raffle will only ever be offered directly through NobleDead.org.

NOW AVAILABLE: The Forgotten Village (“Tales of Misbelief” Collection)

Details and purchase points available at NobleDead.org for this new release in T·N·D·S: Tales from the world of the Noble Dead Saga.

THE FORGOTTEN VILLAGE
sequel to The Forgotten Mistress
Barb Hendee
$2.99 USD
Short story, 20k words

Available through the Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo online bookstores.

This story is autonomous and stands on its own but is also a sequel to The Forgotten Lord and The Forgotten Mistress. It is set in Droevinka, the homeland of Magiere in the Noble Dead Saga (a.k.a. the Noble Dead Series).

While you are in the “Tales” section of the site, have a look at previous tales in the “Misbelief” and other collections. Though set in the world of the Noble Dead Saga, all “tales” and their collections do not require knowledge of any books or series written by Barb and/or J.C. Hendee. You can easily pick up and read any one as your first venture into this world.

NOBLE DEAD RAFFLE—CLOSED

We are late in declaring this first international raffle closed. The three winners have been selected (via use of Random.org), notified, and two have confirmed so far. We will have more news once all three are confirmed. And of course this is not the last raffle to come out of NobleDead.org. Another raffle will be announced in early July. It will be a bit different in the kind of book prize awarded.

Please stay tuned and share out the news, for the next raffle will also be international. Also watch for news coming very (very) soon about a new eBook release for TNDS: Tales from the world of the Noble Dead Saga.
