Hello all!  Hope you’re doing well!  So let’s catch up on where all my projects are!

So what have I done the last week(s)?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Done!  Out!  Published as in ebook format!  I’ve already sold a few copies (some of which weren’t to friends), and set up marketing and promos.
  • Way With Worlds: Not much this week, though it is looking promising.  
  • Seventh Sanctum: I got out the “Power Princess” generator to go with the new popularity of She-ra.
  • Other: Lots of chores and stuff.  The usual.

What’s next?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Next up is going to be setting up the print copy (which my guess is going to easily take a few weeks as you have to get prints to check).  I’m going to focus on that to see how it goes before pacing my other projects.  I also have a free worldbook I want to do soon, but that’ll probably be later in the month.
  • Way With Worlds: Return to the organization book!  Right now I’m actually not sure how long it’ll take, as I’m trying some different editing approaches – but I’m treating it as a learning experience.  Probably out this week or next.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Not 100% sure!  I’ve got plenty of ideas, but a big focus is probably the Nexus.
  • General Stuff: Getting ready for the holidays!

Hey gang, hope you’re well.  So let’s see where we are!

So what have I done the last week(s)?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: EDITING IS DONE!  So next up is formatting and publishing, which should happen in about a week!  Hang in there, it’s coming!
  • Way With Worlds: I’ve gone through some of the edits on the Organization book, and there’s actually not a lot of problems (I think working on the novel helped).
  • Seventh Sanctum: I started a new generator!  It’s very topical.  Hang in there . . .
  • Other: Mostly catching up with stuff.

What’s next?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Publishing!  It’s all ready to go, so it’s just a matter of converting, loading, a bit of social media, and then  . . . well, then it’s print formatting.
  • Way With Worlds: Not sure here, depending on how things go I can run some edits, but I want the novel and new generator out.  But it looks quite promising this’ll drop in December.
  • Seventh Sanctum: I’ll be dropping the new generator!  Stay tuned as I get back into the swing!  I may even update the resources!
  • General Stuff: Right now focusing on the above.  I want to clear my plate for the holidays!

I’ve decided to keep these updates going because it DOES help and it DOES keep me honest.

So what have I done the last week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet:  I will be through chapter 11 (of 15) today, so it’s getting there.  The big haul is this week is to get done by next Tuesday or Wednesday.  I think I can manage this, but it’s going to be a challenge (I might not be done to Thursday).
  • Way With Worlds: Meandering along of course.  I plan to try to jump ahead next week as I’ll have some downtime.
  • Other: I spoke at Kraken-Con!  Sadly, the last one but it went great.
  • Seventh Sanctum: I haven’t made any updates lately as things got busy – but behind the scenes I’ve been plotting out some new technology to improve it.  The current goal in 2019 is to rewrite it entirely over the year to build a solid technical foundation and allow other options.  Meanwhile, I gotta produce some new stuff . . .

What am I going to do this week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Editing.
  • Way With Worlds: Writing.

Yeah, not much to update.  So maybe I’ll cancel these updates and only post when needed.
