August! Super Sales on Super Heroes 3 and Wuxia Beta

Alright!

So, Wuxia is going to go into beta in the next few days after the patreon charges file out.

At the same time, we're moving into SSOSH3.

Here we go!

August 2018(Early)- SSOSH3

Alright.

Wuxia is done.

Beta reader invites will go out after the new month.

In the mean while... work shall begin on SSOSH3. What an interesting, interesting time.

Here we go!

Inner-Circle (contd.)

Oh, and for you Inner-Circle people.

It's worth mentioning this because it came up in the previous topic, but I wanted to make a point of it.

Inner-Circle would get the extra chapter for free as a Patreon post. :)

At that point, you would only purchase the Omnibus if you wanted it, and that you're not actually missing content. :)

Inner-Circle! A question for you

So, we're going to put together our Wild Wastes Omnibus.

It'll be Taylor on the cover.

It should... be rather interesting to say the least. :D

Previously, in the last omnibus, I added a single special chapter. One that added an entirely different POV and poked at the story as a whole.

I'm contempalting doing it again.

Thoughts?

Otherlife Dreams - Cover Relaunch

Well, most of you know how WW3 went down.

And because of that... new covers are afoot.

One down, two to go.

Wuxia -CH15-

“Jia, as the champion, you are allowed to choose the sect you wish to join. You will be accepted regardless of who you choose.

“Which sect do you pick?” asked the old man who had given them their Qi examinations.

Jia’s eyes flicked to the recruiters, than to the examiner.

“This one must kindly ask his seniors to allow a moment to think. Please move to the second place finisher for now,” Jia said, bowing her head deeply to the recruiter table.

July!- 2018

 Happy Fourth of July!

First, no real updates on anything. Working on our Wuxia. It's coming along well.

Expect a number of Early Chapters soon!

After that, we'll be moving to Super Sales 3.

Now, I don't do this too often, but it's time for me to say thanks. To those who have helped me become who I am.

In no particular order:

Michael-Scott Earle: Thank you for always giving me advice. I appreciate it deeply. I also still make time to read your books. So ...

A deep thought and a question (Inner Circle)

I've been contemplating this for a while.

A year, at least.

Doing a re-edit of Otherlife 1-3.

They were written when I was still learning my own voice.

What if I took them, and did my "second pass" with my current author voice.

Gave them new covers.

Kept the story the same, but wrote it with the style of Super Sales, Dungeon Deposed, Wild Wastes, and Fostering Faust.

Looking at Otherlife by itself, its almost by a different author.

I wouldn...

Inner-Circle: Direction!

Heya!

So... it's that time again, my dear Inner-Circle.

We'll be finishing up Super Sales 3 here this year. Then it'll be Dungeon Deposed 2, and Fostering Faust 2.

After that... a new series for both pen names.

Starting to try to think out which direction to go.

Keep in mind, every idea will be tied to the greater "Universe", just with varying degrees of interaction.

A good example is how Dungeon Deposed ties into the greater universe is extremely subtle...

Going forward!

Hey... so, I tend to overshare with you guys on Patreon.

More so than I intend to at least. 

Wild Wastes 3 seems like it's fairly well loved.

People seem to be enjoying the (spoilers will be mentioned in this sentence. If you haven't read it, either skip this, or come back later) crossovers into Otherlife and Super Sales.

It's... been a long time coming getting to this point where things start to come together. Where we can just barely start talking about th...

Wild Wastes 3 - Out Now -

Wild wastes 3 is on Amazon now... weee....

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DK65BFD 

June 2018 - Closing out Book Series

Alright!

June!

First: Dungeon Deposed Audiobook is now available - https://www.amazon.com/Dungeon-Deposed/dp/B07D8C3K7G

Wild Wastes 3 is with the editor. We'll probably be kicking that out end of this month, or next month.

Starting up the Wuxia book. It's going well!

Super Sales 3 will be next. That'll be interesting considering how off the rails Wild Wastes 3 went.

Wuxia -CH3-

Ash had spent the night cultivating.

From the time he sat down on his bed to the moment the sun touched his skin in the morning, he cultivated and cycled his Qi.

Nourishing his body with the energy of the Heavens.

Letting out a slow breath, Ash let his cultivation end.

Sitting in his room he contemplated what to do next. Soon he’d have to head to the training sect and begin the day.

He didn’t feel tired for having been up all night. He attributed ...

Wuxia -CH2-

The huge “library” as he’d begun calling it in his head didn’t change.

Though a large and vast section of the bookshelves misted over and became ethereal.

“Reconstruction has begun and will be complete momentarily. The Chosen one’s Qi sea will unfortunately be drained significantly.

“The Chosen one’s body refining would be ranked as level one if someone were to test it,” Locke said.

“What was it before?” Ash asked, not sure he really w...

Wuxia -CH1-

Ash brought his forearm across quickly, deflecting the fist to the side.

Stepping inward with the move he drove a strike in towards his opponents kidney.

Except that they were already gone.

“Ha, you don’t actually expect to catch me do you, Ashley?” taunted Lim

The young man appeared at Ash’s side and launched an empowered kick.

Struggling to dodge to the side, to get out of the way, to be anywhere but where that kick was going, Ash practically flung himself awa...

New book! Here we go!

ALRIGHT!

Time to start writing a new thing.

We shall now write...

A wuxia!

Chapter 1 is now up. We'll be adding more as we go until we hit our break point, just like always.

After we finish this up, it's SSOSH3. In 40-50 days, give or take. :D

Wild Wastes 3 (Cover and Done) Where we're going!

Whelp...

Wild Wastes 3 is done, and on it's way to the editor.

Now... we begin our next project. It's... an interesting thing.

I'm going to be starting up a book with Blaise Corvin. Except, we're not writing the book together.

We're going to write a universe project. Think Forgotten Realms.

I'm writing my book in the universe, and he's writing his. The VeilVerse.

These books will run parallel to one another, and at the same time as far as plot and timeline. ...

May 2018: Super Sales 2 Audiobook/Fostering Faust: Both Live

Wild Wastes 3 - Beta Readers -

Beta reader slots will be drawn from those who are a confirmed patron as of tonight. 

Those selected will be emailed to confirm that they wish to participate.

I typically use 20 people.

Beta readers will receive the full book in 3 parts, and will be expected to leave commentary at the end of each part.

Readers should not focus on grammar, syntax, or spelling, that all goes to an editor. Primary goal is to shore up characters, plot, and story.

WW3 Chapter 18

Vince sat bolt upright.

He was in his tent. Laying in his cot. Everything seemed exactly as it should be.

He couldn’t remember getting back to the camp, however.

The last memories he had was escaping Nashville. But only after eating as much as humanly was possible of the Dragon heart.

He’d left the corpse on top of the building, and the remainder of the heart right there.

Everything after that had gotten hazy in his memory. Nothing had felt quite ...

Wild Wastes 3 Early Chapters

Apologies.

I've been traveling for my dayjob for a bit.

We're going to have a ... uh... bit of an... update on WIld Wastes 3 chapters in the next few days... probably like 13 chapters in total. :D

Ooopsie.

Fostering Faust Cover

Almost done.

And when its done... the book goes up....

Alpha Readers - WW3

Hey folks. I typically have a small group of dedicated Alpha Readers that I share all my strange ideas, current progress on a book, and weird back end stuff with.

Unfortunately, two of them had to drop out of the group recently.

I'm looking to pick up two more Alpha Readers.

If you'd like to be considered, please respond to this post.

I'll contact you after that and we'll have a quick chat about the whole thing.

The requirements are fairly simple. I send yo...

Wild Wastes 3 -CH3-

Vince sighed and sat down at the table.

“Don’t be so upset,” Mouth said, patting his thigh as she sat down next to him. “I imagine this’ll be over and we can head home.”

“Think so?” Vince asked, looking to the Dryad.

“I do. Personally I think this whole thing was a farce propped up by the command of the emperor.

“So far, he hasn’t intervened despite the length of the war. The moment he does decide to get involved, it won’t end well f...

April 2018- Gotta go fast

Hey everyone.

So as some of you have noticed, and even commented on, we're moving along quick quick as could be now.

Right now I seemingly can finish a book in 40-42 days. Since it takes 2-3 weeks to get it edited, covered, and put on amazon, that means we'll practically be halfway done with the next book by the time the other releases.

This is good news I think, though I'll need to balance my "burn out" meter a bit more closely.

Broker, now called Fostering Faust, is finishi...

Wild Wastes -CH2-

Vince hadn’t even gotten through the portal when what sounded like an explosion came through the little box Andrea had.

“What the… shit,” said Felix. “Andrea, Vince, I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to cut this one short. I have to deal with something.

“Andrea, give him the pack?

“Vince, I truly look forward to meeting you in the future. Please don’t be a stranger!”

There was a beep, and then a strange unceasing tone.

Andrea look...

WW 3 -Cover-

Words.

And stuff.

And a cover!

Since it comes up in the comments, we'll address it here.

We've never actually covered what Red is. She -acts- like a cat, and does purr. She isn't a normal species though.

Given her character as I've written her, it'll never actually come up either. Feel free to speculate, just realize it'll not get confirmed any time soon (if ever).

(If you're moving your pledge up to see this, and plan on moving it back do...

Wild Wastes 3 -CH1-

(Here we go!)

 

Vince managed, barely, to not drum his fingers against the table.

In fact, he’d personally view his entire decorum as a magnificent success.

He hadn’t killed, maimed, hospitalized, injured, or even hurt anyone since he arrived a month ago.

Though he was sorely tempted to.

The amount of stupidity on display was amazing between these two men.

“-ing this whole mess. The number of atrocities your men have committed are beyond count,�...

Broker - Book Complete -

Beta Reader invites have gone out.

Books done.

Moving on to Wild Wastes 3. Estimation... 40 days. Plus or minus 3 weeks. Need to re-read WW1 and 2, and do a second pass on Broker.

...heh... let's do this.

Broker - CH 24 -

Alex sat at his desk in his tent. 

Alone.

Mary had left long before sunrise.

Before he’d woken up even. He imagined she’d slept lightly and crept out, rather than get caught in the bed of the man who had brought ruin to her husband and uncle.

Not that he blamed her.

They’d had quite a bit of fun last night. Her enthusiasm had even shown up. She’d insisted on several positions to try, and they’d spent a good part of the night simply enjoying one another. 2018-03-12 05:07:13 +0000 UTC View Post
