Cover for Changeling: Blood Wolf

Imagine my surprise when I visited the Amazon website, and saw that the super hush-hush cover and title for Changeling 3: Changeling Blood Wolf was already up on the site. I’ve been scooped. Revealing it here now feels a bit ‘after the Lord Mayor’s show’ (my apologies for any non-British readers for the use of [...]

School visit with a twist.

I love doing school visits. I’ve had a spate of them recently, and once I get over my initial nerves about speaking in front of a potentially hostile crowd of 11-15 year old students, I always have a great time doing them. Now I can understand why some authors don’t enjoy them. They can be [...]

On Wednesday I managed to do something that I’d always wanted to do: work in a bookshop. As part of Independent Booksellers’ Week, I worked for the day in Newham Bookshop. Vivian and John, who run the shop, wowed me with their knowledge of all things literary, and I was particularly impressed with John’s tremendous [...]

Scott Pack, he of The Friday Project fame, has posted an interview with me on his Blog: Me and My Big Mouth http://meandmybigmouth.typepad.com/scottpack/2009/06/ethan-interviews-steve-feasey.html.

Today I’m starting to write something different. I’ve had a week off after delivering Changeling 3, and I’m itching to start writing again. But I thought it would be nice to start on something new…something that isn’t part of the Changeling series.I’m quite nervous about it because my writing world, up until now, has been [...]

Wave goodbye, say hello.

I feel more than a little discombobulated. And I don’t know what to do about it. Last Thursday I pressed Save for the last time, attached the file for Changeling 3 to an email and sent the entire thing off to my publisher. That’s good, right? Yes it is good. It means that I have [...]

It’s Hip To Hug. Hooray.

At last, my love of a good hug has been vindicated (at least by the youth of America). http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/28/style/28hugs.html?ex=1259640000&en=a009de695f19b150&ei=5087&WT.mc_id=NYT-E-I-NYT-E-AT-0603-L4 I have to admit it: I love a good hug, and I try to get everyone around me to buy into the huggy-huggy thing. I blame my wife, Zoe, for starting it. And my friend, Steve, [...]

I really don’t handle deadlines very well. With only two days to go before I have to deliver Changeling 3 (I DO have a title for it, but it’s a secret), I’ve decided that I don’t like the ending, and am going to rewrite it tomorrow. That means rewriting three chapters.I’ve been writing all day. [...]
