Glenda has very genrously offered the wnner of her give-away a choice of one of her three tilogies! She says:
Thank you everyone, for your comments! And thanks to Rowena for having me over.
To Lexie, the book I am working on at the moment is set in an imaginary world, but it is very much based on historical fact (with added magic!), lots of adventure, and yes – with pirates. Only back in those days, it was called “privateering”. It’s all about the name…
Kaaron – it’s certainly world scale. It covers “Europe” to “South-east Asia”. And oh, I wish I could fix the world. I’ve spent a life-time trying, but I don’t see much improvement! (Now, if I only had a few magical powers…)
Cecilia – not sure I could write a romance and pull it off. I really admire how writers like Nora Roberts can write so many books and still produce love scenes that sound fresh…but it’s just not me. Hunky fae, now…hmmm.
Thoraiya and Brendan – I’m hoping a Malaysian author will write the urban Malaysian fantasy. There are a couple of very talented woman writers up here who are on track to do just that. I’ll keep you posted. Problem with fantasy standalones is getting publishers for them. In Australia, that is especially difficult, unless it’s paranormal. The trilogy I am working on has the second book placed in a 17th century spice trade Asian setting…lots of skullduggery and Asian fantasy stuff going on, with a mix of European and Asian protagonists. Villains and heroes from both sides. Can’t wait!
And the winner of the free book is Tsana, because she had a number of thoughtful comments on what I should write next!
Tsana, please email Glenda on

Yay!
Thanks Glenda and thanks to Rowena for hosting. 😀
