Steven J Carroll, author of In the Window Room, was lyricist long before he sat down to write his debut novel. With a keen sense of tone, and a subtle ear for cadences, Steven shows his aptitude for both fiction writing and poetry.
For sure, this young, breakout, Southern California author brings a welcomed freshness and an obvious love for children's literature.
5 Star review! - May 1st Thanks bookfox for your kind review.
(Spoiler alert: this review has a few spoilers in it. )
A giveaway thank you - April 14th I saw this little thank you video posted by the winner of the Aura's Book Box giveaway, thought I'd share it. It's good to know people are excited about the giveaways. I've had multiple winners message me to say thank you for their books, but this is the first thank you video. Hope you enjoy it BookFox.
Second Edition - April 9thIt used to be, that if an author wanted to release a second edition of a book he would first need to wander through miles of red tape within a traditional publishing house, and then hope that he sell out his first printing completely, for me this was a much less involved process. Last week I took a morning to augment a particular section of In the Window Room that had been nagging at me lately. I don't believe this will be a common occurrence as I continue to write, and publish, but if I can take a simple few hours to improve upon a work that took 6 months to complete. And if I can be humble enough to know when things might be helped by a second look, then I intend to use the tools at my disposal. When it's really just a easy as pressing "send" to make any changes I'd like.
Also, Happy late Easter. Buy or Borrow In the Window Room on Amazon
