Just bought the last hard copy of Book 1 on Amazon. I can’t wait to read it!
Hello its been a while and was hoping for an update? I hope everything is good with your family. Its been quite a while since you have posted
Like most of your fans i have been patiently waiting for an update to the Strong bow Saga and any word on book 5
Do you plan on finishing the next installment anytime soon? Would love to hear back on this ! Been waiting for years. Hope everything is going swell for you and your family.
Will there be a sequel to the long hunt? I would love to find out what happens
Mr. Roberts, I found your first book at an elementary school book fair. I was with my oldest son at that time. I learned from the publication date that it had only been out for a year when we bought it. I have loved the series. You are clearly a gifted story teller.
I understand much of your situation. I farm 13 acres raising beef cattle, alfalfa, corn, a big garden and an orchard. I sell beef and hay to several private clients. I get a break in December and January and then when the weather breaks sometime in February, I start pruning. I have older hay equipment because that’s what I can afford. Older equipment needs alot of love and maintainance. Fences always need attention and don’t get me started on irragation.
My health challenges are different than yours. Mine are bone and joint related. I have had a total reconstruction done on a foot and an ankle, and have had a total knee replacement. It’s only a matter of a couple of years and I’ll replace a hip. I always have my surgeries done in winter so I can rehab and be ready to work again in the Spring.
I’m in education and my work offered salary incentives if I could complete a series of certification projects, a type of continuing education. I did a couple but never completed the program. I loved farming too much and all of my time goes into that. There is something satisfying and addicting about coaxing food out of the ground.
You may never be able to squeeze the time out of farming to write again. I’ve dropped just about all of my other interests to manage the little bit of ground that I do. In a way, you become married to it. I know you understand what I mean.
All the best to you and your wife. Happy farming!
Will
Hi, just hoping for an update or any news of how you, your wife, and your farm are doing, as well as if you have managed to make any progress since you gave us the last update. Thanks again.
Hi Judson, I just wanted to write to you to wish you and your wife well, I know that you have been facing some incredibly difficult years with some ups and some down. I hope that we see an update to how you are doing in the near future!
Northmanbooks.com no longer works as a link and I was curious on how to get a signed copy of Viking warrior? Love the series. Thank you!
Hi. I am an of your readers from Romania. When I bought and read your latest book, The Long Hunt, it was in 2012, I was 44. Your saga is enchanting and catching. Maybe I will come to read the sequel before I turn 60. 🙂 I wish you both health and luck, sir!
I certainly hope you get to read it before you reach 60! Thanks for writing.
Long time fan here love you love your work have you considered finding a colleague to finish your last book in the case of health problems or God forbid the passing of you or your wife always something to think about to make sure your legacy is finished and that your vast amount of fans find closure of course it’s always preferable to have your genius mind and wonderful historical mind to finish it
I appreciate the thought, I really do, but there are several reasons that idea wouldn’t happen. The only instances I know of where a substitute author finishes or continues a series by another author are when (1) the series is being published by a commercial publisher, versus being self-published by the original author, (2) the series is making a lot of money, which makes it desirable to the publisher to continue it, plus allows them to entice a substitute author for the work, and (3) the original author is dead. Because none of those factors apply, I’m afraid we’ll have to hope I continue to live and will get the job done.
