Okay! I have finished editing Dark Form 2nd Edition, the paperback/eBook are now up. It took me awhile to edit/write because I really didn't want to rush the process. Now, there are a lot of changes that have happened; there a few less chapters because I focused more on the content rather than making the book big. Also, as of now, there are no chapters longer than 15 1/2 pages (which only two chapters have that many pages). My cut off for chapter size is 15 pages but I let those two slide. Plus, despite the shortage in pages, there is a lot more detail that will be further explained in book 2 (Mystic Warriors). Dark Form is almost like a whole new book. So, I highly recommend you all buying it so you understand. There are a few other changes but I'll let you all figure that out when you buy it.
Oh, and Mystic Warriors will be on sale early 2019. The world map that will be going in Mystic Warriors will only be offered through the paperback way. P.S. Please support me on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/MADaCosta), on Wattpad (@DaCostabooks), and on Twitter. The buttons on the side (except for Twitter) won't work unless you make a WattPad or a Patreon account (in case you don't already have them). Thank you!

I already submitted the Dark Form paperback & eBook but KDP says they take up to 72 hrs to review, so I don't know when it's actually going to be up on the site. I forgot about their review period. So, yeah...
I'm seeing that a lot of people are visiting this site, however, no one is visiting my others or leaving any comments. I would love to talk to you guys. C'mon now, show some love. Edits for Dark Form 2nd Edition are going well, so the publication date is still set. But I would still like to talk to y'all. Also, please go to Patreon to show some support and Wattpad so you can see what's going on. Thank you!
I have two other sites where you can follow me on and discover more about my books. There is Patreon where you can help fund my brand (MADaCosta) and help build a community with other readers. Then, there is also Wattpad where you can find me (@DaCostabooks) and read the first 3 chapters of my book(s) before you buy them (Mystic Warriors isn't posted yet). This way you can get a sneak-peak and connect with me all at the same time. So, please go to these sites and support me; I really want my works to become more than just me posting something on the internet. Thank you!
P.S. The buttons are to the right of the screen, they are black. Welp, here we are. I have been procrastinating a bit. That's on me. However, it's all in good faith because procrastination is the key instrument into my writing skills. I know that doesn't make sense but you're not me so deal with it. Now, I am completely rewriting Dark Form to an extent that I didn't mean to beforehand; I really was just going to do some minor (with one major) changes. Then again, the 2nd Edition is turning out much better than the 1st Edition, so I hope you all don't mind. Also, Mystic Warriors will be coming out late December or mind January because the chapters I have already written need to be rewritten to match the changes in the 2nd Edition of Dark Form. Also, I have added new details to the story so that it increases its value as an outstanding book series. I will let you all know when I finish working on it. I'm sorry for taking so long, editing/rewriting is quite the bitch. Have a nice day everyone!
I have had a crazy couple of weeks. I meant to finish editing and publish Dark Form 2nd Edition a few weeks ago but that obviously didn't happen. I will, hopefully, have it published soon (look at the calendar). Stay tuned to see what happens.
SO, I am late on publishing the 2nd edition of Dark Form. I know. In my defensive, it's turning out to be a lot more than I expected. A 480-page book just became a 500-page book and I still have 5 chapters left; well, I may break up some of the chapters into smaller chapters. Mainly because I have about 3 or 4 chapters with 20+ pages right now and others with 15+. Nobody wants that, so I am trying to get them down to 10 or less pages. Also, I may or may not change my domain name just cause I don't like the ".weebly" part. Then again it's free like this, so...who knows.
Oh, right! The reason I am making this post is that KDP apparently doesn't allow pre-order for their paperbacks (just eBooks) so y'all will have to wait until late October, early November, for it to come on sale. It's saddening, I know. But Mystic Warriors will be worth the wait. Lot of new territory to cover, building over a whole new outlook on the plot. Sort of, kind of, maybe...you'll see. P.S. The world map will only be available with the paperback (Book 2). I will have the revised Dark Form republished by the end of July. Since I have made several additions to the book I will re-brand it as Edition 2. Furthermore, Mystic Warriors will also be on pre-order for a date TBA. Thank you!
Until further notice I will be withdrawing Dark Form from Amazon until I completely revise it. I also have new things in store for the upcoming sequel Mystic Warriors. I have been working on a history timeline for Elvendora and I have someone working an illustrated map to be added. I will hopefully finish book 2 soon and continue the trilogy following the heroines Zarvick & Crystalline. I also have several books planned for the future, including 2 prequels to the Shadow War Trilogy. Thank you for supporting me!
Okay, I don't think I ever mentioned this. I do all of the edits for my book myself. I am in no shape or form a professional. I don't have the money to pay a freelance editor to edit my book(s). I've edited Dark Form at least four times (soon to be five). If you ever see any mistakes, please let me know on my contact page. I understand that if you bought the paperback the mistakes will always remain there. However, you could make the reading experience better for someone else. And, who knows, I may give you some insight on the trilogy as a thank you. Anyways...that's basically it. Sorry if my writing isn't top notch but I am only 18 and have a lot to learn. If you're reading this then thank you, if you're not then you should be.
