Okay, update time. A short-ish one.

No calendar chart today, mainly because there was nothing new to put on it over last weeks.

Everything was rather disrupted again this week, must be the time of year. One thing I did find the time to do however, was to listen to the entirety of my book over a couple of days.

Yes. Listen.

Now it may have been with my Mac’s automatic text-to-speech through Scrivener, but it was overall a pretty good experience. The most surprising part of it all was that I actually found myself entertained by my own writing. There were small comedy moments that I’d forgotten I’d written that I actually laughed at. So I think that’s encouraging? Right?

I also realised that structurally, I’m really solidly pleased with the second half of the book. There are a few kinks to work out on the front end, but overall there’s not as much hardcore editing/rewriting to do as I thought. Which is good.

Work is back to focusing on Ghosts again this week, LandFall has hit a bit of a snag which has it in a form of limbo. Hopefully, it will get sorted soon.

Until next time.

At long last, an update on the progress of things! Tantalus Depths​ is officially 100% funded, and I am so, so thankful for that. I couldn’t have possibly managed any of this without your extensive help. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for making this happen. So what’s next?



Watch the vlog for details, but here’s the summarized version: I’m working on my final round of edits before I send Inkshares my finished manuscript. There’ll be a wait before they can pair me up with an editor and put me into the production process, and the entire process could take quite a while. But we’re on our way, and the greatest obstacles are well behind us now. Happy Thanksgiving to all, and congratulations to Kelly Miloro​ for winning my "name-a-planet promotion" thing. You’ve earned it :)

Greetings, Faoii.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving for those of us living in the USA. I’m thankful for many things in my life. It’s been a trying year with health issues (both mental and physical), uncertainty, financial troubles and fear. But it’s also been filled with great new friends, adventures, and more hope than I think I’ve ever experienced before. Of course I’m thankful.

Mostly, though, I am thankful for all of you out there who supported me as I fought to publish The Last Faoii. I took what was arguably the hardest route to publication, and I know more than few people told me that I should stop with Faoii and write something new to put my hopes on, but you all supported me and kept me going even when I wanted to give up. 

Thank you. 

I hope that your day (Thanksgiving or not) is wonderful and that you, too, have something that makes your heart fill when you think of it, because you can’t contain your gratitude. I hope you have more smiles than tears at the end of the day and more hope than doubt.

Shields up. I love you all.

THANK YOU! 

This Thanksgiving I want to thank all of you for supporting me. 

I just got the production schedule for Sunshine is Forever, and I can tell you that we are on track to have the book in your hands by September. I am so excited, and am so THANKFUL for each of you! 

Thank you for making my dreams a reality. I hope you love Sunshine is Forever enough to purchase my follow up book, which will be entitled: KARID. 

Thanks again for everything!
