What's Next?
As far as projects go, I've decided to revisit Knossos in the form of a murder mystery set in the period after the Thera eruption, when there was religious and social upheaval on Crete. The WIP returns to the world of Knossos, Chapter 7, "Counting the Dead" and Chapter 8, "Inauguration Day." Look for characters that featured in both chapters of that novel to make an appearance, as well as new ones, including my sleuth, a female scribe. I haven't started writing yet, but am outlining heavily as mysteries have to be very tightly plotted.
Let's hope I succeed and that readers don't figure out who the killer is on page two!
For those interested in winning a free copy of Danae, head over to Judith Starkson's page to enter the giveaway and read the article I wrote for her. And if you haven't already, bookmark her blog. Every week she reports on interesting news about ancient archaeology, historical fiction, and anything she finds of interest. She's written a book, Hand of Fire, about Achilles and Briseis, and shopping around a mystery with Hittite queen Puduhepa.
I'm also going to be reviewing some books by author friends.
