Just an update, because I'm getting questions.
Yes, the lawsuit did eat into my time, especially at the end
there. Also, after nearly two and a half years of writing about a hundred hours
a week (not kidding, 9am to 1am 6 days a week, and half that on Sundays), I
needed a break. It did go on a bit longer than expected however.
- Right now I'm working on the following novels: POI #9, working title: Consequences. It's over 1/4th done.
- The sequel to Take Two. Working title: Take Two - Encore.
- A short that may turn into a novella or possible a novel: Cursed.
- A 'bridge' book for the Valens Legacy to tie into a follow on series. I thought this would be a regular novel, but I'm starting to think it will be a compilation of shorts and novellas. Working Title: Everyday Including Holidays.
- There's also a book that I was working on and set aside for a while, it's the start of a short multibook series (probably around 3 to 5 books, but still not sure) working title: Wolfhounds (space opera).
Unfortunately I had to go to NY last week for a week (Family
issues) those issues are by no means resolved, though I don't think they're
going to go on for much longer. I don't know if I'll have to go back or not.
So, yes, there's a lot in the pipeline and I'm trying to get
myself back into a 5 to 10 thousand words a day habit, so I can start getting
those things out. I'd like to thank all of you for your patience in waiting for
more books, I appreciate it very much. Your support has meant a lot to me. It's
just been a rough year, but clear skies are on the horizon. It's just a matter
of them getting here.
Thanks,
