Monday's Update

May is always a crazy month.

School ends, I get older, take my family vacation, and about 100 other things.

That said, I'm completely blown away for how this year has gone.

I'll be 49 in a few days (dang almost 1/2 to 100) and I wanted to share a few updates as well as plans.

Ultimate Level 1

It's hard not to mention this one first but wow is all I can say. Every day I write and am blown away by the love for the series! Book 5 is 20k+ words into it and I've had some moments where the goosebumps and Feels REALLY hit.

SUPER excited where book 5 and 6 are going to go. Books 7-9 are begging for me to finish up these two so I can get on the next 'big step' in the story.

Few things:

Books 1 & 2 audio is up on Amazon for pre-order. Podium is going to hopefully have a date for book 3 audio soon. They also signed for books 4-6 audio so Johnathan McClain will be doing at least 6 books for the series (which I'm pretty stoked about).

Covers - Print Version

Waiting on a few fixes from the artists... Amazon is SUPER strict when it comes to bleeds/cuts and man they really get upset about 1 line of pixel in 14000...

Again I can't say thank you enough for everyone who read UL1 on Amazon (even after reading it here or on RR). The reviews and all have helped push it to the top and it means a ton to me!

Dragon Rider

Series is waiting on last review of book 3 from Podium and then everything will be set for full release on Amazon.

Book 3 ends THIS WEEK on Patreon. Thank you for those who followed and I would love a thought on the series as a whole.

I have 1-2 books I may write as the 'next' part of the series if Podium decides they want to pursue it. Most likely I won't hear back until end of year on this one. It will deal with the foreshadowed parts of book 2 (empire north above sea).

Thank you again to everyone who has read it and enjoyed it!

Viking - Battle of the Nine Realms

Story launches June 3rd. I'll be taking down the chapters I originally put up. Lots of edits have gone in, additions to story and more. I think June 3rd I drop 30 chapters and then another 10-11 that week! going to be almost 2/3rds of the story from the gate.

Getting ready to start book 2 in this series. I plan on 9-10 books on this one if all works out. A little bit more of a 'slow' burn to start but will begin picking up as MC (Magnus) grows in power / strength and starts fighting in other realms. Lots of names you and I won't be able to pronounce without arguments...

Goblin Isekai

Some of you will like this update.

Going to go back and edit/fix this story. Need to tweak a few things and redo some stuff. Seriously wanting to get that taken care of and then once I have fixed a few spots I found, going to start putting out some chapters on book 2. Will build up a backlog as always but eventually going to release book 2 (you can hold me to this).

Otherwise - I'm just working away.

Going to be a busy summer with 2 trips (as usual) to other countries. I do humanitarian and other aid. Last summer helped build a trade school in Zambia and headed back this year to teach smelting / casting / arc welding and more with the team I lead.

I'll give a heads up before I leave and always bring my laptop but there will be a week or two when i'm less active due to internet and travel.

Thanks again for your support!
