Red's Heart Remastered

That's right, I'm rewriting Red's Heart and finishing the Red Trilogy.

I'm not changing the story, but am updating the writing style and some of the language used in the narrative.

Why Am I Rewriting?

I was 21 when I wrote Red's Heart. It wasn't the first story I'd written, but it was the first one I'd let people read. I brought it to my writing group and even sent it to a beginner editor.

The issue is, I didn't know what I was doing back then. I used one editor who was just starting and didn't focus on a particular type of edit. I was also a newer writer, and though I had a strong voice, I hadn't developed my style.

After re-reading the story, I've also found that there are missing words and clunky passages that would not match my current style if I were to come back and finish the trilogy now.

I want to finish this series, but between the lack of proper editing and the outdated writing style, I don't feel right finishing the series as it sits right now.

Will the cover stay the same?

No. I have made many mockups for the new covers using Canva, but I am intending to hire a cover artist for the ebook covers of Red's Heart and the two sequels, as well as a paperback omnibus cover.

What does this mean for the series going forward?

I do not currently have a release date planned for this series, as I have other books that are on the front burner, but I would like these books out by September 2028.
