My release day post for FURIOUS HEAVEN (as well as two audiobooks) is coming tomorrow, but I wanted to alert you all to a long essay I wrote that went up today at Tor.com.
I rarely write about my beloved outrigger canoe paddling, but the publicity folks at Tor Books talked me into it, so you can find the essay via this link.
Writing is often daunting. It’s easy to lose one’s way, to get discouraged, to stop paddling because it seems as if it is too far, the view clouded, the ocean tempestuous and murky, the distance impossible.
Yet I think of the words of Mau Piailug, the wayfinder from Salawat:
Keep the vision of the island in your mind, and you will find it.
