I thought it might be a good idea to update
everyone on what I’m doing. The Unseen: Watchers has been a great success so
far. Thanks to all who have bought it, and I hope you’re enjoying it. Over the
next few weeks, I’m going to be working on several projects, though, so The
Unseen is far from the last you’ll hear from me. Currently, I’m working on
three things simultaneously. The first involves the final volume of Wrong
Visions. I finished writing the final story today, and I’ve got to say I love
how it turned out. Part of the stories are edited, but others aren’t edited at
all, so over the next few weeks, I, and the people who help me out, are going
to be editing like mad so we can share these stories with you very soon.
The second thing I’m working on is The
Divide: Origins. It’s a prequel to The Divide, but if you haven’t read the
first one, I wouldn’t worry very much. This new installment is set roughly
fifty years before the events of the original book, so it’s a totally new set
of characters and circumstances. The original Divide was set in a world that
had fallen apart many years before, and this one will be showing the disaster
that led to everything. I’m about halfway through with writing it, and I think
it might be even better than the first one. I can’t wait to share more about it
with you. It’s a project that I’ve been thinking about doing since I wrote the
first Divide, but because of other things I had to do, it’s taken this long to
get it rolling.
The final thing I’m working on is a book
called Destiny. Some of you already know about it, but for those who don’t,
I’ll give you a little insight into the project. It’s a romance book that
follows two people throughout their lives. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever done,
and I think that’s a good thing. I had to challenge myself on this one, and I
didn’t know how it would come out, but the result is something I’m truly proud
of. I can say without a doubt that this book is the best I have done so far and
possibly the best I can do. I loved
writing this story. It’s written and edited, but I’m looking at other mediums
to put it out there with. That’s not to say that I won’t release it on Kindle
in a few months, but I’m considering all options. Even though this book is
ready for release, it will probably be the last one out of these three that sees
the light of day. It’s the type of story that I want to be promoted right, and
to do that, I’m going to need to consult with people who are much more
intelligent when it comes to marketing than I am.
Now, you might be thinking that it sounds
like I’m just doing a ton of work. After all, who works on three books at one
time? Even I feel exhausted by just the thought of it sometimes, but I’ve
learned to take it one step at a time. I do a little every day, and it’s not
really all work. I love writing these stories, and on March 28th,
I’m going to be meeting with some likeminded people at my old school. Northwest
Mississippi Community College is holding their second annual Author Rodeo
Roundup. No, if you attend, you will not
be witnessing me falling off a bull. That’s just the name. Several local
authors will be sitting at tables and selling/signing their books. It’s going
to be a good way for me to network and more importantly, meet some of the
people who care about what I do. I would love to see you there. I’ll be giving
away free bookmarks at the event, and I’ll sign any books you might have of
mine. They tell me that I might have to speak, too . . . we’ll see about that .
. . (I’m a very nervous public speaker.)
So that’s what’s going on in my world. I’m
super busy, and I’m doing what I love. I believe in all three of my projects,
and I can’t wait to share all of them with you, especially Destiny. Thanks for
reading, and look for more updates soon. I should have release dates set for
Wrong Visions Vol. 3 and The Divide Origins very soon. As for Destiny, a little
preview might be in order in the near future. :)
