Status Update!

Things are moving along swimmingly with Seven Shards. I had a breakthrough idea last week, which is really going to improve the flow of the first act. And there’s something of a surprise in store for my Super Readers too! (hint: it involves a map)

Next on the agenda is the developmental edits, which will be my focus in April (a camp NaNoWriMo month for those familiar it). After that, I’d like to give the story 2-3 more rounds of edits, before handing it off to Inkshares for their part of production. I’m expecting the publication date to fall somewhere in late winter/early spring of 2017. As we get closer, I will of course update everyone with more specifics.

Oh! While I have you here, I’d like to recommend a couple of other projects, especially to those of you that have credits to spend -

• Blood Dawn - An epic fantasy set in a world where art has been banned.
  
  
• Deus Hex Machina - A futuristic sci-fi featuring hackers and cyberpunk adventure.

And I’ve said it before, but it never hurts to say it again: Thank You to everyone who has ordered and supported me thus far! It truly means the world :)

Guys, how do you keep topping yourselves? 

We’ve got 95 pre-orders! We bumped into sixth last night and have already surpassed it by 5! We’re less than 50 orders away from the goal. Thank you all so much for being a light at the end of my chaotic tunnel. 

I haven’t forgotten that I owe you a sample chapter for your hard effort; that’ll come later today. And since you guys did it again last night, you’ll see another tomorrow! 

I seriously can’t thank you guys enough. My inbox has been positively exploding with your orders, follows, and support. So much that I’m having a hard time keeping up with everything. I know there are probably a few of you I owe shout-outs to that I just haven’t been able to make yet. But I sincerely thank you. 

Like I mentioned above, we still have 50 orders to go, and that gap can easily increase. I need you, as my crew, to advertise with me. Please continue sharing on your social channels, and also, we’re still in the midst of referral week. Can you get 5 of your coworkers or guild-mates to order a copy? What about 2 family members (spouses count too!)? There are prizes after the release for anyone who refers 3 individuals to place an order.

Thanks for being the best crew a space captain could ask for. Your chapter will be hot off the press later this evening.
