The City of Earthly Desire - An Update

11/4/2019

A few people are wondering why my novel is not currently available on Amazon. In response, I offer the following "update", which I have posted in the My Work section of this site and will now post here as well. 

___________________________________________________________________________________________

I published the City of Earthly Desire in 2012. With the exception of some minor textual corrections - spelling, grammar, typos, and the like - I have left the novel more or less unchanged since then. The City of Earthly Desire has received mostly positive reviews in the seven years since I first published it. Nevertheless, I have never really been satisfied with the end product myself despite the positive reviews and encouraging feedback I have received from readers.  


As a result, I have unpublished the book and am currently engaged in an extensive revision of the novel. This revision includes a total re-imagining of many characters and scenes. In essence, the revised version of the novel will differ significantly from the one published in 2012. It is my hope that this revised version will be closer to my original vision for the story. 

I plan to make this fully revised edition of The City of Earthly Desire available some time in mid-December, 2019 (though it could take a little longer as much depends on the muses).
