Lew Weinstein has just posted that his novel, which he offered free to readers of this blog, is now in print.

I congratulated Lew and said, “I suppose you’re already busy writing the next one, right?”

He replied, “Yes, I am deep into research … Lorenzo de Medici’s Florence in the late 15th c … which will lead to a sequel to The Heretic. I find this period in history, and Lorenzo himself, to be absolutely fascinating, and I am hopeful I can create a story that will communicate this excitement to readers.

“I’m also trying to improve my skills as a novelist, by reading books about writing and other novels (with a very focused eye). You can follow my progress at my other blog … http://novelwriting.wordpress.com.”

I sent him a short note back alerting him to my new blog about blooks. For those of you who might be curious, I’m posting there several times a day. I’ve had letters from authors, editors, and publishers and I’ve looked at over 100 blooks in less than two months.
