My regular writing schedule was a little disrupted this week with the need to travel, but I still feel like I made reasonable progress on my re-write of Human Resources. Another two scenes have been updated and I’m now approximately 1/3 of the way through this re-write.

This week has seen two new recommendations added to the project and another positive review! Thank you!

I currently have 8 excerpts for Human Resources up on Inkshares — hopefully this is enough to give you a good feel for the world, some of the characters, and the flavour of the narrative. I probably won’t post many more excerpts to Inkshares, unless it is part of a funding campaign. However, I am still keen to get constructive feedback on the project and so may look at organising a ’beta reader’ group. Let me know if you would be interested in that (I’m also happy to ’trade’ feedback with other writers).

I’m going to continue pushing hard at the current re-write, and am working on arrangements that will free up more of my time for writing to I can accelerate the process. 

I’m also starting to plan for an Inkshares funding campaign! Obviously I’ll be keeping you informed about that (and hopefully convincing you to pre-order once the campaign kicks off).

In the meantime, I’ve continued to tinker at the cover for Human Resources - below is the current iteration.

Finally, I thought I would call out a couple of other Inkshares projects worth checking out:

Drafts:

• Invictus (Emily Senft): The dystopian world imagined by Emily is amazing. I love the premise and its implications. The technology she has come up with is great, and the characters feel solid.
  
• Dragon Siege (Nell Walton): Evil scientist, high-technology, time-travelling, dragons. Oh, and Greek epics (surely that alone is enough to convince you to check this out).

In Funding:
