Back at the tail end of January, you’ll recall I penned a
blog entitled “Twenty-five First Drafts.” I had just finished writing the first draft to
The Peg-Legged Privateer: A Tattered Sails Novel, and I was pretty happy with
the job I did. And in the last few weeks, I’ve talked about the characters involved, the creatures they encounter, and I even wrote up a short storyleading into the novel proper.
And now, it’s time to release Paulina out into the world.
Yes, folks, it is time. For the 25th time, it is
time to celebrate Book Day.
Here’s what the book is all about:
Long in the service of the 12th Baron Wilton, the
privateer known as Paulina has reached her limit. Between a township that
doesn’t care for her, the Baron assuring her pledge that she’ll go down with
her last ship, and his lascivious advances toward her newest paramour, Paulina
plots to betray him.
She just needs a little help in the form of her all-women
crew to do it.
Taking four ladies along with her, Paulina takes the Good
Queen Bess for her maiden voyage through the Caribe, where mystical beings and scoundrels
alike look to thwart her and send her to the Realm of the Locker.
But they don’t count on the steel and magical energies this
quintet utilizes to stain the wine-colored waters an even darker shade.
Set in a parallel world to ours and in the Golden Age of
Piracy, The Peg-Legged Privateer: A Tattered Sails Novel will quicken your
pulse in more ways than one. It features the fast-paced action you’ve come to
expect out of me, as well as a brash female protagonist—again, what you’ve come
to expect from me.
And how about a little sex? It wouldn’t be a Sean Sweeney
novel without a little hanky panky: Paulina considers herself heteroflexible,
and her lover is also a woman. Can you say smokin’ hot lesbian pirates? Smokin’
hot lesbian pirates.

paperback available only from Amazon at the mo) today, and remember: paperbacks
make great stocking stuffers.
