Through the Kindness of Ravens
The Evolution of Hoke’s Focus
by Ron Swan
An unkindness of ravens, so black, the dark is afraid of them.
So is Jakob Hoke.
But perhaps, it is Jakob truly in the dark, and the ravens, the light at the end of his tunnel.

Very excited that I have just completed a structural edit for The Kite and the Coin Toss. One giant step closer to its release. I dream of the day the novel will finally “come to life” and I have a copy in my hands.
This edit was probably the most difficult thing I have had to do with this novel, but I do like the changes I’ve made. I also trimmed about 5,000 words from it.
Now the ball is in the editor’s court for a 3 stage professional edit to prep it for release.
Stay tuned…
The Kite and the Coin. Toss
The making of the image…
The plight of Lester Grynthal
He’s got his eyes
But not his ears
On a history changing wall
So he can see
But cannot hear
The message leading to the fall
His future is his greatest fear
That is
If he’s got one at all
Lester Grynthal
The Edit and the Coin Toss landed heads. Later this year, I can’t wait to see how The Kite and the Coin Toss lands.
Until then, edit on.
To every proud parent.
Heads will roll, or tales of freedom.
How much are you willing to pay for freedom?
Just completed my final edit of The Kite and the Coin Toss…
