Birthday Bash - What's Happening with #Bespoken ?? #giveaway

The next book on my writing schedule is Bespoken. Yay! Finally, right? 

Bespoken was one of those storylines that I had to discover answers to because of what I'd written in Alpha Trine and Striker. 

Why wasn't Zeus as good as Prometheus for the new Triumphant that would take over as the Galactic Emperors and manage The Grid? What did Prometheus have that Zeus didn't? HOW did the Triumphant manage The Grid? 

Unknowingly, I'd built Prometheus up to be indispensable and I had no clue how. The answers had to be plausible and fit the realm of sci-fi not fantasy. Hell, following a fantasy, the answer could've been easier to devise, but I needed something that was believable and made sense. I tossed aside many different answers because they weren't strong enough for what I envisioned the last book of the series. I hope readers will enjoy what I came up with.

I should probably also talk about the number of books in the series. The 5th book, Canry's love story titled Rebirth, won't be included in the series because the story I have in mind doesn't fit into the overall plot of The Valespian Pact. So the number of books for the series has dropped by one. Tentatively, the list will now go as follows:

1) Alpha Trine
2) Striker
3) Bespoken - Prometheus, Vipre, and Malek
4) Chosen - Axis and the Chimera triplets
5) Boundless - Madux & Star Eater
6) Legends - wrapping up the plot arc.

If I do write Canry's story, it will be a standalone in the Valespia-verse. 

Unfortunately, I haven't completed enough of Bespoke to include it in the readings but I have the play list. It will give you an overall feeling that I'm shooting for.

Goo Goo Dolls - So Alive

"Breaking down the walls in my own mind

Keeping my faith for the bad times

Get up, get up, stand like a champion

Take it to the world, gonna sing it like an anthem"

Ingrid Michaelson - "Afterlife" 

"You and me

We got this

You and me

We're beautiful

Beautiful"

Sheppard - Geronimo

"Can you feel it?

Now it's coming back we can steal it

If we bridge this gap,

I can see you

Through the curtains of the waterfall"

Gin Wigmore - Black Sheep

"Make me mad, I'm not here to please

Paint me in a corner but my colour comes back

Once you go black, you never go back

I'm a black sheep"

Of Monsters And Men - Wolves Without Teeth

"I'll be the blood

If you'll be the bones

I'm giving you all

I'm giving you all

So lift up my body

And lose all control

I'm giving you all"

James Bay - Let It Go

"So come on let it go

Just let it be

Why don't you be you

And I'll be me

Everything's that's broke

Leave it to the breeze"

X Ambassadors - Unsteady

"Hold, hold on, hold onto me

'Cause I'm a little unsteady

A little unsteady"

Of Monsters and Men - Crystals

"Lost in skies of powdered gold

Caught in clouds of silver ropes

Showered by the empty hopes

As I tumble down

Falling fast to the ground"

Skylar Grey - Cannonball ft. X Ambassadors

"And when they light their torches, when they scream and yell

I'm gonna raise my flag and gonna give 'em hell"

Oh Wonder - Without You

"Cause I'm kicking up stones without you

Can't pick up the phone without you

I'm a little bit lost without you

Without you"

Black Stone Cherry - Blind Man

"So we will try not to cry

When we're walkin' in their shoes.

Have you heard the news?

Hey have you seen the blind man in disguise,

Lookin' for his eyes?"

X Ambassadors - Gorgeous

"Nobody understands you

You ain't nothing they can handle

Every man you put your hands on

You make him feel so god damn handsome"

Katy Perry - Rise

"I won't just survive

Oh, you will see me thrive

Can't write my story

I'm beyond the archetype

I won't just conform

No matter how you shake my core

'Cause my roots—they run deep, oh"

So there you are! A bit of insight to Bespoken! It's going to be awesome!
