Moonshine came to be because a well-known children’s publisher told my agent they’d consider a mid-grade book, preferably with a unicorn in it. They had liked Thistledown rather well, but felt it was “too old” for their readers.
I won’t pretend I studied up on just what a mid-grade book was, or set out to write one. I chose to tell an early adventure of Tristan’s, of the time when he and Thomas first met. And the well-known publisher decided the time wasn’t right to add a hardcover fantasy to their line. So Moonlight became an early Print On Demand book from Wildside Press in 2001.
I hope you will agree that it’s a tale readers of all ages will enjoy!
Kindle edition launched April 3, with a cover by Teddi Black. Wildside Press will be doing a new paperback edition, before this year's World Fantasy Convention.
