I’ve kinda been slacking with telling you where I’m at with my current projects, and it’s time I rectify that. So, buckle up. This may take a minute, because I’m covering them all today.
A Heart of Salt & Silver
Dark Paranormal High Fantasy Romance
Status: Fucking prerelease!
I’ve been hitting the ads hard, though I hate marketing. I’ll be seeking ARC readers soon. Like… this week, if all things go according to plan. *hysterical laughter at the thought of things going according to plan*
The Regonia Chronicles
Dark Science Fiction
Status: Writing
This series is coming along really well. Since the middle of July, I’ve written nearly 50,000 words, bringing the grand total to 128,054 words so far.
And these characters still have a couple planets to travel to, alliances to broker, and a whole ass war to fight.
My previous prediction of this getting split into three books rather than two is pretty damn likely at this point.
And since I’ve stopped and started working on this series between writing other books, learning new stuff all the while, the editing process is going to be interesting. It’ll be like watching my writing skills evolve. I’m dreading it and also looking forward to it.
Where Darkness Leads
Dark Romantic High Fantasy
Status: Neck deep in a rewrite
I’ve already cut 10,000 words, and these bitches aren’t even to the mountain, yet. (For the sake of a reference point that actually means something to you, I’m almost exactly two thirds of the way through.) And this is on top of the 10,000 words I cut in the last round of edits. So basically, I’ve removed a novella from this book.
This is an older manuscript, and I used to be a lot wordier and do a lot of telling rather than showing.
Gotta get this bitch polished.
Allmother Rising
Dark High Fantasy Romance
Status: Beta Readers
I have feedback from most of my beta readers, and I’ve made most of the adjustments.
After I get the feedback from the last betas, I’ll go back to this one for adjustments and then more editing.
Second to None
Thriller Novella
Status: Beta Readers
This baby just started it’s beta reader stage. It’s had two rounds of edits so far, and I’m starting to send it to beta readers.
Thrall
Paranormal Flash Fiction
Status: Beta Readers
This one is also just beginning its beta journey, though I already have fantastic feedback from one.
Soul Bearer
Dark High Fantasy Romance
Status: Released
I’m giving this book a new cover for it’s birthday (later this month). The cover is done, and I fucking love it.
Whew.
There’s a decent amount going on, as you can see. I never have just one project going, though I only ever actively write one project at a time. I’ve attempted to write two side by side, but I always get pulled into one and have to finish the other later.
I have countless ideas for new stories, but as ever, there isn’t enough time in the day. I’ll just have to get to them after I finish The Regonia Chronicles.
Keep reading. Keep writing.
Later.
