Monthly Archives: August 2021

I started writing The Wind Mage a few months after I finished The Flame Iris Temple in May of 2020. I completed the text in March of 2021 and the editing plus art was finalized in August of 2021. Some of the topics I address in The Wind Mage are: the role of courtesans in society, the nature of political power for the educated scholar-elite, who are the fox-spirits and what do they want, as well as ship-travel and trade in what one might call the late medieval period.

I recorded the audioBook for The Flame Iris Temple in May of 2020 but due to a number of unexpected complications, I was not able to get the audio version for sale until August of 2021. So, I have two new things both in the same month. Happy news.
