Long time no update. After so much build up and hype that was followed by near silence on my part, you're probably wondering what is going on. The answer: not a whole lot. I received and finished the marketing questionaire and cover brief sent to me by the Inkshares team, which was waaaay more fun to fill out than it had any right to be. Then, I sent in my manuscript. And now, we play the waiting game as the production team does their thing. I'll keep you updated as I get reports on their progress.

So that's all I've done on the book, however, that's not all that's going on for me. 

In Our Fair City news, we are currently hard at work preparing scripts for season seven with read-through's coming at the end of the month. As far as things you can listen to, I've got two more episodes coming up soon as well as our extra-long Season 1 Revisited episode. You'll be able to find those at www.ourfaircity.com or on iTunes at Our Fair City. 

There's also my Midnight Audtio Theatre contest winning script which is still in production. When it is ready, that will be up at http://midnightaudiotheatre.com.

July 2-5, I will be attending CONvergence in my old stomping grounds of Minneapolis (technically Bloomington, but whatever.) Our Fair City will be performing a live episode before the closing ceremonies, I will be appearing on a few writing panels, and I will be canvassing the convention site with the Unattractive Vampire postcards I've ordered.

What else? I've got a few other writing projects I'll be working on in the next month. My next novel is currently in its third draft and I am awaiting notes from a few fellow writers who are reading it for me. Once my Our Fair City episodes are done, I'll begin rewriting scripts for a web-series I hope to start movement on. Following that will be my submissions for WildClaw Theatre's Deathscribe competition, which I will unwisely link to: http://www.wildclawtheatre.com/deathscribe. (You don't REALLY want to submit to that though, do you?) And of course, there was my other big news of being accepted to DePaul University's Master of Writing program, which I will be preparing for.

So yeah a lot on my plate.

There's a long way to go until our publishing date in January. But as you've been good enough to get this book published for me, I'll make sure you know everything that's going on. Because, yeah without you, most of this awesome would not be happening.

Thanks, as always,

Jim
