Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

Recently, I was interviewed by the lovely Jess Carpenter of jesscarpenterwrites.com about the writing of The Walls of Woodmyst. 

Jess has written a small bio on her website that I absolutely love. I've decided to include it here as I don't think anything I write could do her justice.

Jess Carpenter is the author of Les is More and has a B.S. in psychology and an M.S. in health. She spends her days writing, making endless snacks, and giggling with her toddlers and husband.

The interview is a candid look at my writing style, particularly around how I approached The Walls of Woodmyst, as well as aspects of what I have learnt about writing along the way. Well worth following the link to have a look.

Whilst your there, take the opportunity to explore Jess' site. She's also a writer an has a new romantic comedy novel, Les Is More.

Heres the link to the interview.

Hi.
My name is Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

Today, I went and did something terribly stupid.
I blame boredom and isolation.
Have a look for yourself.

Just A Little Bit Bored: A Social Isolation Film

Happy reading and viewing.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
It's been a while since my last blog entry and, in case you've been on another planet or totally disinterested in what's going on around here, it's been a rather busy time.
With the current situation evolving, revolving and mutating around the Covid-19 virus, many of us have gone into isolation to maintain the practise of anti-socialism without prejudice or discrimination. Others have turned to working from home whilst places of work are continuing to operate as per usual.
Whilst I have symptoms of influenza and am currently behind closed doors, I have not contracted the virus, thankfully. However, I am someone who has a chronic illness and may be informed by my medical practitioner to isolate after the symptoms have abated.
This being the case, and considering that I've been away from my workplace for two weeks already, I understand the comments on social media about the varied levels of boredom people are already suffering from.
To overcome such boredom, particularly if you are an avid reader and looking for something new to sink your teeth into, consider searching for free books online (ones offered up by the authors or publishers themselves, not bootleg copies from questionable websites) as there seems to be a trend by a number of authors who are offering their works during this tumultuous time.
Also, consider searching for independent, or self-published authors. There is a great deal of excellent writers out there who haven't been snapped up by the traditional publishers for various reasons. Quite often, their books are considerably cheaper and give you an opportunity to fill your library with quality material, if you're willing to do the searching for it.
Lastly, because I am self-indulgent and want more sales, consider leaving a review for an independent/self published author. It helps with the marketing and boosts the ego of the writer. In other words, I actually smile when someone leaves something in the review area. It means I'm being noticed, sometimes hated, mostly loved. Being that I'm isolating for the time being, a nice review is the closest thing to a hug.
Until next time, stay safe, stay healthy, stay at home and happy reading.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
Today, I'm looking at the calendar, counting down the days, hours and minutes left until the school holidays.
Why?
Because I really want to sit down and write something of substance.
It seems that this term has been a particularly busy time for all my colleagues and myself.
Some might say, when is teaching never busy? Well, you're right. It is always busy.
However, this time of year is busier, shall I say, than the rest of the year. What with end-of-year report writing, end-of-year functions, future planning for next year, regular parent meetings before and after school, farewells to students, farewells to staff, farewells to sanity, I barely feel able (let alone awake enough) to plot and write anything outside of my regular day job.
I really need a break.
I really need to write.
So, this is why I haven't placed anything in my blog for a while and also why there hasn't been too much action from my end in the past month or so. I am aiming to change that very soon.
This is my apology to those who may have been eagerly waiting for something from my twisted mind. I hope you understand.
Until next time, happy reading.

Robert.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

It brings me great pleasure to announce the release of The Weapons of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book IX.
This is the second to last book in the series and continues directly on from The Gods of Woodmyst.
I think followers of this series are going to enjoy this one. The action is amped up to eleven and the gut churning tension intensifies with each page turn.
Great for the Halloween season.
Be sure to get your copy now from your preferred ebook store.
And don't forget the first book of the series, The Walls of Woodmyst, is still free to download. Gift it for a friend, family member, or your grandmother. She'll love it.
Don't forget to drop a review of the books you have read so far. Every kind word and star mash or two makes an indie-author smile rainbows.
Until next time, happy reading!

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
I thought I'd take the time to let everyone know that the next instalment of The Woodmyst Chronicles is virtually around the corner. The Weapons of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book IX.
Some last minute fix-ups and a few back and forth emails with my publishers have just been completed. I have given my approval for distribution and now we simply need to be patient.
I'm pretty excited about this one as it is the second to last book of the series. I don't really want to say too much about it here as it picks up where The Gods of Woodmyst left off. I will say these last few books in the series have been a joy to write as they are one continuous story instead of a broken arc, like I wrote for the first four books.
I considered writing six books into three, longer narratives, thus fulfilling the traditional style of fantasy writing structure, but decided against it. Let me explain this a little.
Most fantasy novels contain somewhere between 80, 000 and 150, 000 words per book, usually sitting on the higher end of the scale, sometimes venturing well over. I tried to average around 80,000 to 90,000 words. The reason I stuck to this formula of writing shorter novels for the series was because I believe it worked well for The Sons of Woodmyst and The Heir of Woodmyst (books 2 and 3 of The Woodmyst Chronicles). Again, these two books could have been written into one story, but I loved the cliffhanger at the end of The Sons of Woodmyst. I didn't want to lose it amongst the chapters, and I couldn't resist sharing its impact.
This formula worked extremely well with the last books in the The Woodmyst Chronicles and therefore, what could have been three additional books after The Warlords of Woodmyst (book 4) have become six.
Hopefully, that isn't too confusing to make heads or tails with.
So, The Weapons of Woodmyst will be available very soon. Keep your eyes peeled for its impending release. Expect a few little twists, some unexpected occurrences, lots of blood and plenty of adventure.
Until next time, happy reading. 

​Robert.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
It's been a while since I took to writing anything in my blog. So, I thought I'd do something about that and share something with you today.
For the past few weeks/months, at least since the beginning of the year, I've been putting most of my effort into work, as in my actual day job. This has hindered some of my attempts to keep to my writing schedule.
I haven't really written any new material for some time. Don't worry, I am working on something.
Most of my leisure/writing time has been allocated to editing and working on a couple of books I've had on file. Readying them for publication.
The first of these is The Weapons of Woodmyst, book nine of the Woodmyst Chronicles series. I'm at the point where I'm about to send it off to the distributor. If you've been reading the series up to the most recent book, The Gods of Woodmyst, you'll know that the story continues. Alice and her band of warriors move to free the land of Takmel and his tyrannical rule. Needless to say that swords clash, blood is spilt, sorcery is conjured and dead rise. Just another day in the land of the realms.
The second is the follow up to this. It's not quite ready for me to part with it. There's little I want to share about it at the moment as it also continues the story and I don't wish to reveal any spoilers.
The third is Long Valley. It was the first book that I ever self-published. I sent it off into the world too hastily and was never really satisfied with it. So, I pulled it off the eBook shelves and gave it a polish. The small changes and restructures work a little better, I think.
Long Valley is now residing with my editor, Sally Odgers, an award winning author whose work you can catch a glimpse of here: 
sallyodgers.weebly.com
www.printscharmingbooks.com
larksinger.weebly.com (adults only)
I've asked her to give me a little assessment Long Valley on top of necessary edits, so it could be some time before we see it return to the publishers.
Until next time, best wishes.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
Today, I'm announcing the latest instalment of The Woodmyst Chronicles has just been released.
The Gods of Woodmyst is book VIII in the series and continues the story of Alice Warde, a young girl coming of age, a dragon rider, the Kayl'sro of the Agrodien, the prime of her coven and the leader of a great army.
Determined to overthrow the tyrannical Maji, she sets her eyes to the west and begins her journey to war.
But, the Maji has other plans. He begins to gather his forces for the final conflict and conjures many obstacles for Alice to face along her way. 
With enemies lying in wait, some of which were once close friends, Alice must push on and fight her way through them all to reach him.
The way is long.
The enemies are many.
​

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
This is my first blog post for 2019 and so far not so good. I've hit a wall with my writing.
It was bound to happen eventually as I've had a pretty good run up until now. But, I am working through it and can see the land of milk and honey on the other side.
​I am currently working on a slow burn thriller/horror set in Australia. It is grizzly and macabre and unsettling.
Quite often, I've found myself feeling the heaviness of desolation pushing down inside my mind as I've expanded upon certain character traits. So much so that I've had to walk away from the project a few times just to find something fun to do, to remind me that there is some happiness in the world. The PS4 and Crash Bandicoot have been working overtime as a result.
The wall I've come upon is research.
After writing a great portion of the story I found that there were elements that didn't work for me. I needed to go back and change a great deal of the content.
This is a first for me, as I usually write the first draft entirely before going back to make any changes.
The upside of the whole experience is that I'm writing this story on Scrivener. Every piece of research I've done is stored inside the one box (so to speak). The story I'm writing and the notes I'm keeping, along with the research including images, is all there in one place. It has to be the best tool for organisation that I've ever come across.
Before Scrivener, I was using paper notes, post-its, folders of information. This covered my desk and was quite difficult to navigate, especially when my regular day job consists of keeping notes and folders of information that piles up quite quickly.
I still keep a note pad for spare of the moment scribblings. Scrivener can't follow me everywhere. If an idea hits me when I'm out and about, I need to jot it down (or use my phone to record a message to myself) before I forget. In saying that, you never forget the good ideas. They stick with you and never leave.
Which brings me back to my current work in progress. It was, and still is, an idea that has stuck around in the back of my head for a very long time. I had images of the opening and closing sequences spinning around in my creative vortex for years, but didn't know how to link them.
The chain I'm creating is a little complex and, thus, the research needs to be done.
So, I must return to the grind stone.
I wish everyone a Happy New Year and all the best for 2019.

​Robert E Kreig.

PS: For the budding writers out there, I've started using an App called ProwritingAid for grammar and readability checking. I'll always say that nothing beats an editor, but it helps to clean up the manuscript a bit before sending on to a professional for checking. Well worth a look.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
Except for today.
Today, I'm writing to you about something that other writers might find useful.
Recently, I purchased Scrivener 3 through the Mac App store to organise and write my books. I've read a great deal of reviews about the software, watched a lot of YouTube videos and weighed up the cost compared to other products out there as well as my "up to now" way of writing.
It took a little bit to get a handle on how things operate in Scrivener, but once I set it up to how I like it, I fell in love.
So, what is scrivener?
Scrivener is an app that helps with organising your research, notes, character biographies, location details, chapters, everything related to writing. There is a spell/grammar check that helps, but I have found it to be a little faulty at times. It picks up on the major issues, but it also keeps telling me that "to" should be "too" in a sentence like, "He fell on his knees and pleaded to be set free."
Apart from those kinds of little hiccups, Scrivener is brilliant.
Everything is in one place and time is saved by having it all right there in one app. Up until I started to use Scrivener, I have multiple documents open on the computer and scraps of paper containing my scribbled notes all over my desk. Now, I can fit my extra large mug of coffee on a coaster and concentrate without the mess.
It isn't just for the novelist either. Scrivener contains templates for fiction and non-fiction writers alike. The templates can even be modified to your preferred calibrations.
There is so much more that Scrivener can do. I could write on and on about the features of the app, but I would like to get back to my novel writing eventually.
Scrivener is Mac friendly at the moment. They are making efforts to work with Windows operating systems, but I have seen a few reviews from PC users who have found that they have had more negative experiences that those of us blessed ones who prefer the apple symbol.
​I am still working out the full potential power of Scrivener 3 on Mac and have discovered more and more with each use.
A great tool for writers, in my opinion.
I must note that I have not been paid by Scrivener for this little review. These are my thoughts and the thoughts of the voices in my head.

If you want to learn more about Scrivener, this is a good place to start:

Another good place to get an overview of a much more experienced user of Scrivener is here:

Happy reading.
Happy writing.
Merry Christmas.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

I haven't written anything on my blog for some time because I've been researching for a new book that I've just started to pen. During this time, the next instalment of the Woodmyst Chronicles has been undergoing some minor touches.

I am at a point where I'm completely happy with Book VIII, and so it is now in the hands of my publisher.

​Some reviewers have already given their feedback about The Brides of Woodmyst and so far, it has been positive to say the least.

The Brides of Woodmyst by Robert E Kreig is an exceptional addition to the Woodmyst saga. 
Jamie Michele for Readers' Favorite


Things began so simply for Alice, but things were never easy. To see her claw her way to where she now stands is amazing, and she is not alone in such growth. This is one story where the characters, events, and plot all drive the reader forward, making it impossible to put this book down.
K.J. Simmill for Readers' Favorite


The Brides of Woodmyst is a powerful and gripping story set in a beautifully developed fantasy world. The characters are strong and well developed, with a cast that is a beautiful mix of male and female characters, with realistically varying levels of strength and skill. Regrets, tears, mistakes, victories, joy, and smiles fill this story, giving us a glimpse into the lives of all of those portrayed. The style of Kreig’s writing makes it easy to effortlessly lose oneself in the story, and the descriptions are detailed and varied enough to allow your imagination to run wild through the scenery.
Sarah Westmoreland for Readers' Favorite

Keep an eye out for the imminent release of The Brides of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book VIII.

In the meantime, happy reading.

Robert E Kreig.

Hi.
​My name is Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
It is a time of mixed emotions for me as I send my tenth book of the Woodmyst Chronicles to my editor for corrections. I feel a certain relief as I've drawn the story to a conclusion, but I also feel some sadness because I've been emerged in the world surrounding Woodmyst and its inhabitants.
I've enjoyed the transference of protagonist throughout the narrative. Essentially, it is the story of a particular family starting with Alan Warde, a soldier of Woodmyst who harbours a dark secret that is uncovered in The Walls of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book I. We are introduced to a young boy, Tomas, who grows up between the first and second books to become leader of his people during The Sons of Woodmyst and The Heir of Woodmyst (books 2 and 3).
By the time I was writing the fourth instalment, I had worked out who the true hero was. It was the youngest of Tomas' daughters, Alice. 
Although Alice was still a small child and didn't play a major role during The Warlords of Woodmyst (book 4), she displayed traits that made her stand out, and that I wanted to explore further. Thus, the writing of books 5 through to 10 begun.
The journey that this little girl took me on was exciting and gut wrenching at times. I'm not too sure how other writers fare in such situations, but when it came to Alice, she was the driver behind the story. I thought I knew where we were gong, but she had other ideas.
Even towards the end, I wasn't certain how it would conclude. I frequently paused my incessant tapping on the keyboard to ask myself whether or not Alice's bravado and folly would see her meet her fate and just how she would get out of this situation, if she did indeed.
By the final book, there is so much at stake. Not only in the bigger world surrounding Woodmyst, but in Alice's immediate world of family and loved ones close to her.
Knowing that there was a possible future for Alice, an extension of the narrative, teetering on a knife's edge had formed a lump in my throat as I wrote the final chapters of book ten. I honestly wasn't sure how it would end up.
I believe that I have accomplished what I originally set out to do. I have written a fantasy series.
I also believe that I have created something distinct from most fantasy stories. I have written a fantasy series that is action oriented.
So far, books one to six are available to purchase online. Book seven (pictured) is coming. In the meantime, The Walls of Woodmyst (Book I) is available to download for free. Visit www.robertekreig.com for more information.
I hope people take the opportunity and time to read and enjoy The Chronicles of Woodmyst as much as I have taken pleasure in writing the books.
All the best,
Robert.

Alice Warde is a young lady who has recently discovered powers she didn’t know she had. And she needs them as her home and world are being threatened by multiple enemies. The Shadow of Woodmyst is the sixth volume in The Woodmyst Chronicles. Author Robert E. Kreig has written an intriguing and absorbing a fantasy epic that is hard to put down.

“And now the colours have appeared again.” Gruloch looked to the travellers. “The Black Witch rules from Woodmyst.”
Alice felt her stomach tighten.
“How do you know this?” she asked.
“The words on the wind speak frequently to one another,” he told her. “I listen to their tales. I listened to how a young girl with strange abilities was shunned by her own and sent into exile. I listened to how that young girl became a leader of a nation and willingly opened her homeland to others seeking refuge. I listened to how she defeated my warriors and frightened my dragons with sorcery. “I so wanted to meet this girl. I needed to see this one the shadows talked about. I must admit that I knew far more about you than I originally led you to believe, Alice.”

Oh yes, there are dragons! In an unexpected event, Alice is given the gift of a baby dragon.

Alice breathed a deep sigh as she looked upon her gift. The dragon inched towards her, lowering its head submissively as it chirped. She placed her hands upon its snout again and rubbed the scales above its nostrils. A soft, soothing rattle resonated from its chest as it fell into a deep sleep.
“I have a dragon,” Alice said to herself.

Recommended for those who love fantasy and for those on the fence with this genre, try it. It’s a well-written action adventure by a gifted writer who knows how to write dialogue. He also is a master at descriptions that pull you in and won’t let you out. You’ll be thinking about this story and the well-developed characters long after you’ve finished this book. You could read this book as a standalone, but you will be eager to read the rest of the story. I didn’t want it to end and eagerly await the next instalment.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

Today, I am please to inform you that The Shadow of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book VI, is now available for your downloading pleasure.
The Shadow of Woodmyst is the continuing story of Alice Warde and her journey as leader of the Agrodien. We meet old enemies, new friends and fresh dangers from afar and from within Alice's circle of trusted allies.
This book is the sixth out of ten tales that complete the saga. Full of action and edge-of-your-seat moments, The Shadow of Woodmyst is a thrill-filled stepping stone that leads Alice into an adventure that won't reach its ultimate climax until book ten.
I hope you enjoy The Shadow of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book VI.

Robert.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

I'm excited!
Why?
Because, today, I received copies of my latest book in the Woodmyst Chronicles, The Shadow of Woodmyst.
Not only was I happy that they are pleasing to the eye, but I am full of anticipation as the release date draws nearer and nearer.
This step in the process is one that makes me a little nervous as I know it will only be a few days until The Shadow of Woodmyst: Book VI is unleashed upon the world.
It is the continuing story of Alice and picks up directly where The Huntress of Woodmyst left off. The remaining books in the series will continue this trend, building until the final chapter of Book X.
I have posted a book trailer for The Shadow of Woodmyst in anticipation. You can see it on the page dedicated to Book VI of The Woodmyst Chronicles.
In the meantime, as we await the arrival of The Shadow of Woodmyst, the first five books of the series are available from all good online e-book stores. The first in the series, The Walls of Woodmyst, remains FREE for all to download.
Enjoy!

​Robert.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

I'm pleased to announce another adventure is on its way.

The Woodmyst Chronicles Book VI: The Shadow of Woodmyst will be on its way very soon.

The Shadow of Woodmyst is the continuing story of Alice Warde as she grows in power, abilities and leadership. I must admit that it has been a fun ride writing about this girl as she grapples with so many twists and turns.

I can't help but feel that Alice was forced into an early maturity as life dealt out a fair share of harsh realities and dumped them into her lap. Even though she is a figment of my imagination, I struggled with placing this little girl in such terrible circumstances. But, it had to be done for her to become the person she eventually develops into by the end of the series.

The Shadow Of Woodmyst is book six in the saga and tells of Alice's shaping as a trusted leader by her people, and how she comes to grips with the changes she is faced with, not only in her position but also in herself as she grows.

I guess this is my twisted version of a coming-of-age story.

My hope is that those who have been enjoying the series so far will also continue to do so for the remaining books of the Woodmyst Chronicles.

It only gets stranger and more frightening from here on.

Best wishes,

​Robert E Kreig.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.
Today, I start to ponder what my next writing adventure will be.
I have a large number of ideas, a tonne of notes on scrap paper, and a million images swirling around in my twisted head.
But, which one shall I choose to embrace?
To explain, I have just sent the last three manuscripts of the Woodmyst Chronicles to my editor. This doesn't mean that I've ceased working on them. It does mean that we have neared the end of the journey though.
The series will finish off with Book X, which continues to follow the key protagonist of the series Alice, who has only just been introduced to you, the reader, in The Huntress of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book V.
Throughout the remainder of the series, we will get to see Alice develop and mature as a leader, face unspeakable obstacles of horror and perilous danger, all the while trying to understand herself and who she is as she progresses into adolescence.
I must admit that, whilst I am sad that Woodmyst is almost behind me, I had fun writing the series, allowing the characters to dictate the direction that the story took. In truth, I would never have considered putting such a young girl through such paces, nor exposed her to the things she saw, heard and experienced. At times, I needed to walk away and really think about what it was that I was writing.
There were times that I deleted and rewrote sections, only to have Alice's voice rebuke me from inside my mind, telling me that my corrections were not who she was, commanding me to return the text to how it was originally.
As a result, I have learnt to listen to my characters, even if I disagree with them.
After all, what I write isn't my story, it's theirs.
So now, as I bring the Woodmyst Chronicles to a close, I hope that Alice and the others she encountered on her journey are happy with what I did. 
I hope you, the reader will enjoy the story as it unfolds through each of the upcoming books.
All I can say for now is that you'll need to keep your eyes peeled this year for the next chapter in the series, The Shadow of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book VI.
Until then, happy reading.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

Today, I thought I might make time to announce the upcoming, new adventure in The Woodmyst Chronicles saga.

The Huntress of Woodmyst has now been given its own page on my website. This will be the fifth book in the series, and will follow the experiences of young Alice Warde as she grows into a formidable warrior and powerful sorceress.

Woodmyst flourishes, emerging from a quaint hamlet into a city over a short span of time.
The new walls surrounding the community have been all but completed and the population continues to grow.
Crops are harvested, livestock are flourishing and the stores are fully stocked.
Woodmyst and her allies appear to be enjoying a bountiful time of peace.
All except for Alice Warde, a twelve-year-old girl who feels less at home in the thriving city than she does in the wilds of the woodlands and beyond.
Possessing the traits of a well-trained soldier, weapon smith and tracker, the girl has learnt the art of survival from a very young age.
Alice is unlike any other, possessing newly acquired abilities and talents, similar to those of her mother and aunt, that evoke fear amongst a number of the citizens of Woodmyst.
As the girl establishes a home away from the community, new threats from the north make their way towards the city.
Alice has inadvertently made herself the first line of defence for Woodmyst.
Will her skills be enough to help her?
Can she survive on her own?
If not, what will become of Woodmyst?

The Huntress of Woodmyst is set for release by the end of 2017.

In the meantime, check out the other books in The Woodmyst Chronicles of series and be sure to download your free copy of The Walls of Woodmyst to get you started.

Hi.
I'm Robert E Kreig and I make stuff up.

I am writing this today to inform you of some very good news.
The Walls Of Woodmyst: The Woodmyst Chronicles Book I, is now available to download for free.
That's right.
FREE.

The Walls Of Woodmyst is the first instalment of the Woodmyst Chronicles. It is a fast moving story filled with action, suspense, thrills and horror. 

Inside The Walls Of Woodmyst, the villagers gathered in the Great Hall to celebrate the beginning of the harvest season. Unknown to them, however, just outside the protective walls that surrounded the village, deadly enemies were lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to launch their well planned attack. Warning signs of impending doom started when the village leadership discovered a gruesomely mutilated body. Gripped with fear and with no knowledge of who the enemy was, the village readied itself for the battle. A dark cloud hung over the whole of Woodmyst as the villagers prepared for the worst. The leaders started to gather clues in a desperate attempt to identify the mysterious enemies, but the more clues they found the more afraid they became. When the attacks started, cunning monsters came at night and vanished without a trace when day broke. With each night bringing fresh waves of terror, will the wisdom of the leaders and the dedication of the brave men of the village be enough to defeat the merciless enemies? And was the chief's decision to put the rest of the villagers in the Great Hall a wise one?
