A Note from B.W. Alan
Saving Hampton Grace was my first published novel.
Since its release, I've had something I didn't have while writing it: distance.
I've been able to read the reviews, listen to what readers connected with, pay attention to the things that left them wanting more, and return to the manuscript with fresh eyes of my own.
And I've realized something.
There is more I want to give this story.
I'm currently undertaking a major revision of Saving Hampton Grace.
This will be much more than a proofreading pass. I'm revisiting the manuscript as a whole—its characters, relationships, pacing, emotional development, scenes, and the places where I now believe the story can be stronger, deeper, and more complete.
I'm also correcting the editorial and continuity issues I've discovered while going back through the published manuscript.
The heart of the story isn't changing.
I'm making the book better.
The current edition of Saving Hampton Grace remains available while I work on the revised edition. However, if you are considering reading SHG and would prefer to experience the revised version, I want you to have that information before you purchase.
If you'd rather wait for the new edition, you can join the Saving Hampton Grace Revised Edition List below.
I'll use this list to let you know when the revised edition is ready, along with important updates as the project moves forward.
Thank you.
Your reviews, your reactions, the conversations you've had about this story, and the things you've told me you wanted more of have all become part of this revision.
I'm listening.
And I'm going back in.
