Chapter 1 (continued)

Here is the rest of Chapter 1. If you are just finding this blog, you may want to go back and read  the Prologue and then the first half of Chapter 1.  Next week, I'll post Chapter 2 first half. If you are interested in receiving a free advanced reading copy of the book and will post an honest review, please contact me at my email, maggie AT maggiejaimeson DOT com. In mid to late April, Windtree Press will be sending out at least 50 review copies to readers and bloggers.

Chapter 1 - The End

Here is the first half of Chapter 1 for my YA Fantasy, Chameleon: The Awakening, which will be released in May.  If you haven't already read the Prologue, go back and read that so you know the set up.  Again, I'd love to hear your feedback. Do you want to see more?

Two Chameleon Books coming in Late May

Finally, the release of the first two books in my Chameleon series is getting close.  So, I've started this blog devoted only to talking about YA Fantasy books. I'll be sharing not only information about my books, but also about other YA Fantasy authors I enjoy.

I'm still building the blog pieces on the outside, but I will be posting here regularly.

The first two books in my Chameleon series are coming out in late May. Yippee!! I first conceived of this series in 2010 and pitched the idea at a workshop with Michael Hague. It was so well received by the attendees, that I knew I had to actually write the books.  At that time I was planning the usual trilogy. But about 200 pages into the first book I realized the story was much larger than a trilogy. It would take seven books to really tell the story of The Chameleon and the Forest People.


I'll be sharing the covers as they become available, and between now and the May release of the first two books, I'll start sharing consecutive excerpts from the first book.  If you keep visiting, you'll get an advance look at the first 60+ pages.  And for those who participate in this blog, by visiting and commenting and sharing your ideas, you'll get the first book for free!  How is that for a deal?

There will be other surprise giveaways at random intervals along the way. So be sure to subscribe to my feed or by email to make sure you know when the next post is delivered.

Thanks for following!
