Steve’s Update 3/17/2019

Hey gang, so a quick update here on my, well, updates.

The weekly thing really isn’t cutting it for a number of reasons. First, not enough changes in one week. Two, weeks are variable enough that half the time I’m discussing interruptions that wouldn’t matter in the big picture. Third, I’m shaking up some of my personal productivity choices, so two weeks work.

So last weekly update!

So what have I done since last time?

  • Way With Worlds: I’ve started writing the Fashion book – and got the City book back!
  • Seventh Sanctum Book: I’ve been writing it and am happy with the way it looks. Interesting note – it’s shorter than I expected. Don’t know if this means I’ve got more to add or if it’ll get done faster.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Started working on a new generator! It’s a comedic one, but an interesting one, so stay tuned . . .

What’s next?

  • Way With Worlds: I’ll keep working on the Fashion book (remember I do those over time) and will get as much edited of the Cities book!
  • Seventh Sanctum Book: Keep writing.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Work on that new generator and of course, keep practicing Python.

Steve’s Update 3/4/2019

Here’s what’s going on with my projects! A lot of my time was taken up by some illness-related issues and general chaos.

So what have I done the last week?

  • Agile Creativity: The print copy of of the book is out!
  • Way With Worlds: The city book is now off to the editor.
  • Expanded Distribution: All my career books are out in expanded distribution! The only thing is I’m not putting them on itch.io yet – didn’t seem appropriate.
  • Other: I put my creativity books into their own series, Steve’s Creative Advice. And yes, I’m keeping these grouped books low-key title wise as they cover diverse subjects.

What’s next?

  • Way With Worlds: It’s probably 1-2 weeks to get the edited copy back. I’ll likely plot the next book soon. As noted, my goal is to keep these coming out constantly, low-level.
  • Seventh Sanctum: I may tackle a new generator. I also plan to start on my book on procedural generation!
  • Expanded Distribution: I’ll start putting out my creativity books next!

Here’s what’s going on with my projects!

So what have I done the last week?

  • Agile Creativity: The print copy of the book should be done this week – I have the (hopeful) last draft in the mail.
  • Way With Worlds: The city book has more questions entered. Really, not sure how much to update.
  • Brainstorm Book: The Brainstorm Book is out! – and it’s got wide distribution!
  • Seventh Sanctum: I’ve got the new Elemental Monster generator out! On top of that I’ve updated the Nexus with more creative resources!
  • Expanded Distribution: I’ve been expanding the distribution of my books, starting with Epic Resume Go! By the way it takes a week or two for a book to hit all markets, so be warned.

What’s next?

  • Agile Creativity: I’ll sign off on the print book this week (hopefully early)
  • Way With Worlds: The new book will go to the editor end of this week! So get ready for a new one end of the month of March!
  • Seventh Sanctum: Probably a bit of a break.
  • Expanded Distribution I will keep moving more books to wide distribution!
