Celebrating the 10 Year Anniversary of EpicTales.org!
It was ten years ago on September 22nd that I posted my very first blog post here at EpicTales.org!
Since then we have seen and experienced, in no particular order:
- 356 Blog Posts
- Six writing conferences attended
- Three novels written, edited, and published by Zondervan / BLINK YA Books
- Seeing my publisher merge with Thomas Nelson and become Harper Collins Christian Publishing
- The birth of EPIC TALES PRESS
- The publication of a family CD
- The bronze-casting of my very own Excalibur
- Three promotional contests, including the bronze-casting of a copy of Excalibur that was given away as the grand prize
- Nearly 100 book reviews, starting with Jonathan Roger’s Bark of the Bog Owl
- Many different promotional events, including library conferences, library visits, school visits, craft festivals, and so on.
- The nearing completion of ARTHUR’S BLADE, book 1 of The Pendragon Spiral
- The death of my mother
- The birth of my first grandchild
In short, it’s been a WILD TEN YEARS! Thank you, each and every one of you for your help, encouragement, and support!
As a small celebration I’m going to give away a signed copy of MERLIN’S BLADE to one random person who comments on this blog post, along with a colored Merlin that I drew a few years ago. The winner will be announced Saturday morning!
Wow, that is a lot happening in 10 years. Congratulations and I look forward to the release of Arthur’s Blade. Looking forward to 10 more years! 🙂
I have really enjoyed your books! I love the Merlin Spiral series and I can’t wait to read the Pendragon Spiral.
WHOOO! Huge congratulations to you, Robert! 😀 Don’t enter me, as I already have two awesome copies, but just wanted to give you a rousing HUZZAH! How spiffingly epic! Congrats! 😀
Good for you Sir Treskillard!
My sister and I love the Merlin spiral, and certainly can’t wait for Aurthur’s Blade!
I hope for a good many more decades for this blog (and your books)
Thanks!
