You read that right, my fellow deviants, I am a published novelist as of this very month.  And not self-published mind you (not that there's anything wrong with that).  My co-writer and I went the hard, slow road to traditional publication but ended up with a great midlist publisher.  Dark Oak Press and Media (formerly Kerlak Publishing) took a chance on our fantasy-horror series and bought the first novel to publish in hardcover, paperback, and ebook.

Here's what THE CYCLE OF AGES SAGA: FINDERS KEEPERS all about:

In order to fulfill a promise to his master, Kaladimus Dor, disastrous mage of Myth, must do whatever it takes to get the secretive contents of the chest in his possession back home. After shipwrecking himself on a long-forgotten island, Dor must cooperate with a motley crew of survivors to secure their only means of escape from the island before they are consumed by its ravenous inhabitants, both living and undead. 

Created by co-writers Jeremy Hicks and Barry Hayes, the CYCLE OF AGES SAGA is a hard-hitting entry into the fantasy-horror genre. Although a standalone story in its own right, the spec screenplay for COAS: FINDERS KEEPERS introduces an epic, evolving storyline slated to run several chapters in its entirety.

THE CYCLE OF AGES SAGA: FINDERS KEEPERS is now available on Amazon at the following link:

www.amazon.com/Cycle-Ages-Saga…

Or you can find it on Barnes & Noble here:

www.barnesandnoble.com/w/cycle…

If you're local to the area (or want me to drop it in the mail to you), you can buy a paperback or hard copy from us and have it shipped directly to you.  In that case, paypal is both of our friends.  Contact me via private message to find out more.

If you know anyone who'd be interested in this type of novel, please pass this along.  This is our first novel and we could use all the positive press we can get. :)

Thanks!  You read'em and we'll keep writing them.

Sincerely,

Jeremy Hicks

My first fantasy novel, co-written with Barry Hayes, is now in the final editing stages with our publisher Dark Oak Press and Media.  Once it's finished, it should be out sometime this summer.  Once I have an official launch date, I'll be sure to let everyone know where and when they'll be able to purchase a copy.

Until then, feel free to check out our website and merch store at:

Thanks for everyone's support.  Hope you enjoy the read.

Can anyone out there in the land of DA recommend a freeware alternative to Photoshop for image manipulation?  I'm trying to edit a map insert for our upcoming fantasy novel, and the file is too large to manipulate in MS Paint beyond its b&w layout.  I'm looking for a program that can handle taking this b&w basic map image and layering on enough color and texture to make the map look like its done on leather, pigskin, or even old parchment.  I'd appreciate any recommendations as I'm not normally a photo/image manipulator.

Thanks!
