Have you read the Five Lands Saga prequel? It's finally in audio, so if you're a listener now's the time! It's the story of one of the series villains: his heroic stand to hold a bridge against terrible odds and the choices that led him to less heroic actions later in the series.

I've missed the last couple collaboration posts because the world felt noisy and other messages more important. But the world isn't quieting down, so here's another post about collaboration, this time about choosing traditional or indie.

Today's blog post on collaboration is about why you need a collaboration contract and what should go in it! This is possibly the most important chapter in the book. Never work on a collaboration without a contract in place! www.jancipatterson.com/2024/12/02/y...
