The Magic of His Craft
Author Peter Saenz says he isn't Wiccan. However, he still conjures up a magical mix.
Peter's Coven of Wolves books combine fantasy, epic battles, ancient mythology and a great love story to hold readers spellbound. And you'll get a chance to hear him read from his latest book, Coven of Wolves II: Blood Ties, this Saturday afternoon at 3:00 in the Author's Forum at San Gabriel Valley Pride Festival 2015!
With the second book in his trilogy completed, Peter is currently working to produce Coven of Wolves as a regular television or cable series. This summer, he founded his own production company, Tri-Wolf Entertainment, which is set to option the pilot script.
Peter talked about his background, the creative process and the developments of his story arc in his latest book, Coven of Wolves II:Blood Ties, as well as hinting at things to come in Book III. (He also offered an inside look at the process of getting a pilot script produced!)
Peter will be reading from Blood Ties at the Author's Forum of San Gabriel Valley Pride 2015, themed "Fall in Love with Pride", this Saturday, October 17th, at 3 pm in Pasadena's Memorial Park, 85 East Holly Street near North Raymond Avenue. However, you might like to get there earlier. This free, family-friendly event runs from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm, with entertainment, dance lessons, Big Draw LA art table, pet adoptions, a wedding expo, vendors and more! Everyone's invited to come and celebrate.
