Book 4 is complete

Sunday, October 5, 2008

For me, there are few feeling that can match the relief and satisfaction of finishing the main draft of a novel. I am so happy to be done with writing Book 4, because now the story exists in a tangible way outside of my mind, and I can focus on polishing. It is especially a vast relief because the story turned out really well. Fans will be pleased and in general, I think the excitement over the series will increase.

I got the book done just in time to stay on track for a March 24 release. I am already getting great reactions from my initial proofreaders, and can't wait to get the story out there for everybody.

Another interesting tidbit is the news that I have received a draft of the Fablehaven screenplay. I barely got it and have been on the road, so I've only read the first bit, but what I have read seems really cool and basically true to the flavor of the book. I will comment more once I have read the screenplay and digested it.

My summer of writing has ended, and now generally I'll be back on the road visiting schools and bookstores a bunch. Keep an eye on Fablehaven.com and BrandonMull.com to see if I'm coming to your area!
