Dear friends,
This week, there was a bit of anniversary in the Kotar household. It was The Son of the Sirin's 6th birthday! No, I agree, that number means hardly anything in any culture, and certainly a true hobbit wouldn't even mention such a number for its sheer insignificance.
And yet, in these six years, I've published seven novels and novellas and written another five books related to the fascinating world of Russian fairy tales and folk culture.
In the process, I've gotten awards for my writing, written a full screenplay, got published as a poet, and had my Raven Son series optioned for Hollywood.
But honestly, I couldn't have done it without all of you. I'm so grateful for my readers and for my fans, especially lately, as we have had some unexpected financial and personal difficulties crop up the last few months.
I wanted to send you a special gift, which is a soundtrack to my latest novella, The Son of the Deathless (which you can get for free here, by the way). If you click the image below (which is artwork that inspired the writing of Raven Son), it'll take you to an open post on my Patreon with a youtube playlist.
Enjoy :)
