    New Midnight Rising chapter off to prereaders...

    At long last. This is the redo of the chapter I was forced to scrap in April and then about 80% rewrite. I saved a few select bits and pieces from the original version, but the rest went by the wayside.

    Still pecking away on Midnight Rising and Feathered Hearts...

    The two Lemon Zest chapters of Midnight Rising have now reached 26,600 words and they’re still nowhere near done, with probably another 5-6k words to go. Gotta treat the girl right, after all, and also make sure there’s plenty of sexy side dishes around her. And as for Feathered Hearts?

    Still working on Midnight Rising...

    At the rate of about 800-1000 words a day. That’s my key to getting stuff done that’s causing you issues; just be sure you put at least a little time in on it this day to have some forward momentum. The two chapters are now up to 24,100 words. I’ll work on it more this weekend, at least around continuing work around the maps and battle graphics I’m making for Feathered Hearts.

    Did two things this past weekend...

    First, I ran 10k for the first time in two months after laying off that long to let my ankle bursitis subside, trying to allow the area to generally heal up. It appears that it worked. To my delight, there was no ankle pain after and I hadn’t even lost much stamina thanks to hitting an elliptical machine twice a week for an hour instead of jogging. My upper legs are another matter, though.

    C&C chapter 40 entering prereads tonight + teaser

    Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going

Where I am with everything... · 8:41pm Jun 9th, 2014

I'm breaking my own rule and currently working on three separate writing projects at once. They are:

Five Star Service
Next Chapter: 40% done
Current Word Count: 3,403
Estimated Release Date: June 20 +/- 2 days
Comments: Had some trouble deciding which direction to go, but I think I figured it out. Be on the lookout for a crossover character from a certain other work I'm involved with.

Turnabout Storm
Next Chapter: 75% done
Current Word Count: 6,650
Estimated Release Date: June 15 +/- 2 days
Comments: Phoenix meets the press and talks with a now-jailed and temporarily powerless Trixie... and foreshadowing Trixie's fate

Dominion Academy: Book 1 - Orientation
Status: Finished except for final editing pass, which is 50% complete
Cover Art: Received... and gorgeous. Can't share it just yet, but thanks, Kelli!
Estimated E-book Release Date: Aiming for end of June or sooner on Kindle Direct Publishing
Paperback version of book: Under consideration
Dilemma: Would it better to split this novel into two separate books? At 230,000 words, the length might be offputting to some.

So things are happening on all fronts, just never as fast as you like. And in between all this I'm also dealing with living room renovations and making reservations for Las Pegasus Vegas in a few weeks. Your friendly neighborhood Firesight is also a Poker Pony, and will be playing in the 2014 World Series of Poker.
