Having been locked out of the original blog for reasons unknown, I have been forced to create a new one. Thus, this new--and not necessarily improved--blog. The old one remains up and active, I just cannot access it as owner, so can't make changes, update it, etc. A royal pain, I assure you, but at least newcomers to the Lindensaga blog can read what has gone before there.
UNFORTUNATELY, the first actual post is a very sad one. My wife and I have been working together on the Lindensaga for many years, but now I must forge on alone. It is with a heavy heart that I tell you that my dear wife of 34 years, Johanna Louise, passed away unexpectedly on the 2nd of April of this year.
This leaves me to finish what we started those many years ago without her contribution, which was major, as she provided the rough draft which I then edited—often with major re-writes.
However, as we talked about the world of Linden, its peoples and its history constantly—you might say we lived there in our spare time—and as she left copious notes and outlines as well as completed chapters and partial books, I will be able to complete the series at least up to volume 8 which will be the last volume of Siglin's story. "Who's Siglin?", you ask. You haven't met him yet, and he won't show up until volume 5.
At present, I have finished editing the first six chapters of the second volume in the Lindensaga, The Last Giant: Retribution and will start on chapter 7 as soon as I can, but only after I have thoroughly reviewed her notes and outline.
But I will continue, so watch this space!
