Numerous things have been happening including:

1) The Stoneholding now has a Canadian distributor, Sandhill Bookmarketing . Through this distributor, you will now be able to find the book in Indigo / Chapters bookstores across Canada!

A note: If you would like to see The Stoneholding sold in your local bookstore, please tell the bookseller that the distributor is Sandhill and how to reach them.

2) The Stoneholding author now has a literary agent from New York who will be representing them in New York and London. Hopefully this will help bring the books to an area closer to your home!

3) Book signing engagements and events: In February, Mark James headed off to Ottawa for a couple of book-signing engagements with cover artist, Ted Nasmith. Ted brought along a couple of his original works to display, including the cover art for The Stoneholding. Here is a photo taken at the Chapters Rideau in downtown Ottawa…

4) Mark James recently sent out their newsletter and mentioned The Lost Harp! Here is what they said…

“The Lost Harp fan website
The Stoneholding has a fan site! – thanks to the enthusiasm and initiative of one of our biggest fans, Wendy Shepherd. Wendy took it upon herself to set up a fan site for The Stoneholding as a place to talk about the book. Wendy has posted the first two chapters of the novel, PDFs of the maps, and an interview with us. There are also a number of discussion forums where questions or thoughts can be shared.

Please visit the site and leave a comment for Wendy, (www.thelostharp.com). She has been a terrific supporter of the book and we thank her for her work!

*Special thanks to Mark James for supporting the fan site. You are truly special! ~Wendy*

5) The most asked question . . . “What about Book Two?”
Okay, so about The Second Book of the Talamadh The Hidden Kingdom. Mark James has extensive chapter by chapter plot outlines already drafted, and they are beginning the work of crafting the story. And it’s a good story! And you’ll just have to be patient!

Briacoil!
