Just uploaded the manuscript today. My proofreader says: "Scott, I've gotta say I think this book is my favorite so far." Preorder: shorturl.at/aSvbY #Arthurian #bookseries #bookstoread

If you've only read Le Morte d'Arthur, you'll discover stories Malory left out threaded back into the narrative. A great place to start the series because this is the beginning of King Arthur's reign... Preorder: shorturl.at/llBCY #Novels #Arthurian #Books

Book Six is ready for pre-order! I'm pretty excited about this one as I think it is one of the stronger entries. It's only 0.99 when you pre-order but will go up upon release. Pre-Order here: shorturl.at/3p83m #Arthurian #Books #kingarthur

Greetings readers! A progress report on Book 6 with some notes on what can be expected is below. I am almost done with a first draft and then will move into revising. I like it so far and think you will too! theswithen.com/2024/04/04/boo… #kingarthur #bookseries #Arthurian

Released a new video on how to approach reading Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte D'Arthur. It's aimed at people who are just wanting to explore the Arthurian legend for the first time. Thoughts? #Arthurian #Kingarthur #Literature #MedievalMonday youtu.be/rCv-092FjeA?si…


New video! This gives a little intro to the series and tells what's special about it. It's meant for the home page of the Swithen website... let me know what you think! youtu.be/2ufDdAWuVRU?si…

In this author interview I discuss why I went back to completely rewrite the first book of my series, the thought process that went into it and what readers can expect. shorturl.at/bgkV8 #bookseries #author #Merlin


BTW, revised Book 2 is also available in ebook. The Vortigern section is 70% new to complete his journey from Book 1, and the rest is heavily revised... I was happy to focus the characters of Pendragon and Uther much more. amazon.com/dp/B079P78BRQ #arthurian #bookseries #book


The completely-rewritten Book One is now available in ebook! This now alternates between Vortigern's story and the tale of Merlin's birth. amazon.com/dp/B0CCJQS7NY #Merlin #Arthurian #bookseries


Excited to get started on Book 6! This one has lots of battles, intrigue, Merlin, magic, a touch of incest and a certain sword acquired via lake-based distribution. #bookseries #arthurian #books

Get an advance look at all 5 redesigned book covers for the Summer 2023 relaunch of The Swithen series of novels retelling the actual Arthurian legend (not the movie version). bit.ly/3L9mbBY #bookcovers #books #bookseries


We're getting close to the relaunch! I really love the revised Book One (our evil buddy Vortigern is quite a hoot) and the whole series will be MUCH stronger. How do you like the new covers? #bookseries #Arthurian #novels

Ever wonder how what we know as the legend of King Arthur developed over time? This article traces how it came together over a few hundred years from 1136 to 1485: bit.ly/3SU1QRv #kingarthur #Arthurian #MedievalMonday


I'm rewriting the first 3 books of my #bookseries. If you've already read them, you don't need to go back, but they weren't working great for new readers (and my writing style has developed in the meantime). Details are here: bit.ly/3rp2P0D #arthurian #fantasybooks


#bookseries #novels #readers The great thing about remaining faithful to actual Medieval legend is you really don't know how the saga is going to twist. At work on Book 6... only 19 installments after that! Discover: amzn.to/2AgosXg
