Get Sundered!

Melinda Kucsera

Hi Readers! We hope you had an awesome Thanksgiving if you celebrated it or an awesome week if you didn’t. We’re grateful that you signed up to receive our crazy newsletter and that you carve a little time out of your life each week so we can entertain you. Thank you! We couldn’t do this without you. And now for what you’ve been waiting for. Drumroll please—     “Ah, Papa, you’re supposed to give me a drumroll now. Papa?” Ran swiveled around in the office chair, or the literary throne as he liked to call it. Sitting there made … Continue reading Get Sundered!

Get Sundered Now!

Melinda Kucsera

Be careful what you promise. Oaths can kill. Get Sundered now! Magic might be stronger when it’s broken, but the promises Sarn forged with them are even stronger. Two conflicting promises bind Sarn. He must satisfy them both even though a monster’s chasing him and an evil entity keeps trying to take his soul. Serving more than one master is not only damned near impossible without magic, it’s also deadly. But Sarn doesn’t have a choice because his word is his bond, and he gave his word to Death’s Marksman and an otherworldly entity named J.C. who just might be … Continue reading Get Sundered Now!

Strolling Chapters

Melinda Kucsera

The cast is happy our scribe decided to re-read the forthcoming Curse Breaker: Sundered. I might have called her paranoid in Monday’s newsletter. (Psst. You can read it here if you missed it: https://melindakucsera.com/2018/11/19/a-snowy-adventure-in-november-o_0/) I was wrong. Somehow four chapters took to wandering around the book and ended up out of order. I blame the Newsletter-Dragon. This is the kind of prank she’d pull. Worry not, our scribe noticed right away something was amiss, and she put those chapters in their rightful place. I’m keeping an eye on them to ensure they stay where they belong. –Ran, Son of Sarn, … Continue reading Strolling Chapters

A Snowy Adventure in November o_0

Melinda Kucsera

Hi Readers, ‘Twas the week before Thanksgiving [in America], and all through the town, snow started falling, making everyone frown. Business owners hemmed and hawed and finally quit guffawing at the preposterous storm hitting the town. Worried employees stood by the windows making such a palaver, their bosses told them to go.  Onto the clogged roads, they went, skidding on ice and the snow fast-covering the town. A sea of taillights stretched onto the horizon, making everyone groan. No road was clear. There was no escape, so our brave little scribe hunkered down and drove into the night. Her car skidded … Continue reading A Snowy Adventure in November o_0

And the scene goes on… ;)

Melinda Kucsera

Oh no! We didn’t post this week’s adventure! Without further ado, here it is, dear readers: https://melindakucsera.com/2018/11/12/the-spirit-asked-for-another-scene/   I’m so sorry for the delay. I was busy wrangling another scene out of our overworked scribe. I might have succeeded.   But don’t tell Melinda. She hasn’t realized the chapter titled Oh, Guardian, Most Dear is really two chapters smooshed into one.   But she will.   And I got my extra scene even though she forbade any more! 🙂 (Papa’s in it too because I go where he goes in Sundered.)   Life is good.   — Ran, the “scene-stealing” … Continue reading And the scene goes on… 😉

The Spirit Asked for Another Scene

Melinda Kucsera

Hi Readers! We have good and bad news. We’ll start with the good first. Our scribe voted, and her vote must have saved the world from a terrible fate because a) it’s still spinning, and b) the everyone and their brother stopped texting her to vote. So rest easy. All is well. Somehow our scribe made it so. We have no details about that yet, but clearly, she’s developed a superpower we were not aware of. Now for the bad news. Curse Breaker: Sundered is not publishing today. I know. We’re sad about that too, but J.C. lobbied for an additional … Continue reading The Spirit Asked for Another Scene

Extra awesome

Melinda Kucsera

Last night, our scribe tried valiantly to end our fifth adventure, Curse Breaker: Sundered. But J.C. got extra awesome. So our scribe wrote an additional scene for Him instead of finishing the book. Now he’s angling for another one. Our scribe’s sitting in the corner with her head in her hands because this book won’t end. But she’s kind of at work right now and people are starting to stare. So we’re going to be good characters and mosey on over there to beg for more scenes–I mean comfort her. 😁 More page time is good, am I right? –Ran, … Continue reading Extra awesome

Vote for the Dragon

Melinda Kucsera

The Fate of the world is no longer hanging in the balance. Our scribe voted. The world is safe from dragons, even the digital one that stalks through our newsletter and occasionally singes this website. But there are other dragons that need slaying. So get out there and vote. Save your corner of the world. And stop texting our scribe. She did her civic duty. Go do yours. — the cast of the Curse Breaker series Continue reading Vote for the Dragon

The Shining One Needs Help

Melinda Kucsera

Hi Readers, Instead of our regularly scheduled adventure, we’re bringing you Part 2 of Chapter 2 from Curse Breaker: Sundered. (In case you missed it here’s: Chapter 1 & Part 1 of Chapter 2.) We hope you enjoy it while we gear up for the book launch! So far, we’re still on track for Nov. 12 even though Papa got extra awesome near the end, and that required some extra scenes. I’m right there with him, so you know I’m happy. And you should be too. Those scenes are extra bang for your bucks. 🙂 You’re welcome. But our scribe is not … Continue reading The Shining One Needs Help

Call in the Guards (Part 1)

Melinda Kucsera

Hi Readers, Instead of our regularly scheduled adventure, we’re bringing you the part one of chapter 2 from Curse Breaker: Sundered. (Last week we debuted chapter 1. Read it here.) We hope you enjoy it while we gear up for the book launch, which is tentatively planned for November 12. We’re hoping for sooner than that, but our scribe is working all week and half of next weekend, and she may not be able to finish the final round of edits and um, format the book, so it’s readable. That’s kind of important. If she can get everything done sooner, … Continue reading Call in the Guards (Part 1)
