Weekly Progress Update:

Greetings, orcs!

The year is nearing it’s end and the holidays are upon us, bringing a desire for laziness as the weight of the year settles on our shoulders. But, rejoice, for each New Year comes with a renewed sense of purpose, for many, giving them motivation to reach new heights and achieve their goals.

It’s no secret I’ve been falling behind the last few weeks. But, I’m insanely eager to get back into everything. I miss writing and the itch to jump back in is high.

Rejoice!

I’ve got some projects already in the works, some large, some small. Some in adolescence, others nearing fruition. Here’s a bit of what I’ve got planned:

Summary of Projects (Works in Progress):

  1. First, I need to finish my wife’s Christmas present. It’s a small writing project containing a group of episodic shorts full of juicy drama. This will obviously need to be done by Christmas. Unfortunately, it’s an exclusive gift for her, so it won’t be shared with anyone.
  2. Skirmishes. For the few of you who might have been following along with my Skirmishes over the last year, you’ll notice I haven’t added any since early August. However, I’m ready to pick these back up and release Collections of these, based on races – starting with Orcs, then Dwarves. For more information, check out this Facebook post.
  3. Book Three is still in its outlining phase. I had planned on starting the first draft (for the second time) a few weeks ago until I decided to write something for my wife’s Christmas gift. Now, I should be able to get back to this with the new year.

So, while I’ve been decently stagnant, there are things in the works. Your continued support is a great motivator. There’s truly nothing like hearing that your work was well received by readers to make you want to press on. I have a LOT of things planned for the long run. They’ll take some time to get completed, but I’ll always want to get them done.

On an unrelated note, if you’ve read Madness already, feel free to send me a note, e-mail, or message and let me know what you thought! Or leave a review on Amazon, Goodreads, or Facebook – they go a long way to reaching more readers.

Until next week!
