Read The Weight of a Wing (The Stolen Wings Book 1) Online
Authors: Ioana Visan
The Weight of a Wing (The Stolen Wings Book 1) (24 page)
This was the first novel I wrote in English with the vague
intent of publication at the time. Being a so-called debut novel, I knew it
needed a lot of work, so I kept rewriting it in between writing and even
publishing other things. At one point, I started working on the second book in
the series, but I couldn’t finish it because the first wasn’t officially
completed.
Finally, after four years, I told myself enough was enough.
The story was there and getting it through a dozen more drafts was not going to
make it any better, so I contacted my editor. Now I could finish the second
book, then write the third and final, and figure out how the story ended
because, you see, I was curious, too. You’re welcome!
As usual, many thanks go to my critique partners, Aheila,
Ardyth, Boringname, Cabreeden, Cam, Darrylb, Ek89027, Kelleyanne, Pranabow,
Skipperz, Skywoman, Spaceysund, Sprites, and Themedi8or, my editor, Kim Young,
and my illustrator, Vega Mandalika.
Thank you to my readers and reviewers, too. If you got this
far, please take the time to leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads to show
your support. I will be forever grateful.
And let’s not forget Mom, Dad, little brother, Grandma, and
the cat.
See you in the next book!
