Hi!
I got the newest iteration of the cover back from the artist today. I'm interested in everyone's thoughts. Let me know what you like or don't like in the comments.
This scene will be in tomorrow's chapters (for the upper tiers).
Talk to you all tomorrow.

Hi!
This week required a lot of detailed work on stats which slowed me down considerably. The difficulties I’ve had finding my groove with this book have led me to take drastic action. Namely, I’ve begun getting up before everyone else wakes to get some writing in.
My entire life I’ve hated mornings. I still have trouble going to bed before midnight, regardless of how tired I am. Kids of course changed that to some degree, but this week I took it to another level by going to...

Hey!
My writing went fairly well this week, and I feel like I’m gaining some momentum. I didn’t get the book 8s mailed out though but will really try to get that done this weekend.
I sent my ideas to the cover artist last weekend for book 9, and I was hoping they’d have something back to me that I could show you all. I guess one thing I can reveal is the title. It is especially appropriate since this week Chapter 18 makes its debut.
The title of book 9 is: Tarot’s Ni...

Hi!
Writing went much better this week, which I’m very grateful for. Other than that, I finally received the book 8s I ordered so I will try and get those shipped next week. Thank you for being patient with me.
Usually I don’t have issues blabbing on about things but my brain isn’t cooperating tonight so I’m going to post this update and the chapters and head to bed.
I opened up chapters 9 and 10 for Root.
I opened up chapters 11 and 12 for Harvester.

Hi!
When I started book nine I spent a lot of time discussing how beginnings are difficult for me and it takes me a while to know if I’ve started in the right place. Luckily, for eight books, I’ve gotten it mostly right and very few changes were necessary.
I did not get it right for book nine. I’ve already revised a couple of chapters and made some significant changes. The last week (maybe two) has been the most difficult two weeks of writing since I started this series.

Hi!
This week threw some challenges at me, but I still managed to have three chapters to release tonight. The main issue with productivity right now is finding the best way to convey tons of new information in a clear and interesting way. Ruwen has experienced so many recent changes, which have created a domino effect of other changes, that I’m struggling with the best way to tell the story. This is not helped at all by my love of seeing the process, as opposed to multiple montages wh...

Chapter 11
Ruwen used a combination of Dig and Melt to create a short tunnel to the rift which he backfilled as he went, using Glow to see. Where the rift had appeared, a twenty foot radius had vaporized, like half of a sphere, leaving glassy smooth walls.

Hi!
You probably already noticed I only posted two new chapters tonight. The reason is I’m not happy with the third chapter and didn’t want to rush it. If I knock it out in the next couple of days I’ll post it. It contains a lot of complicated items that I don’t need to have perfect yet, but I still want them to be close.
I received my shipment of books to sign for the upper tiers, but 2/3 of the books were unusable. So I’ll need to get refunds for those and reorder. The...

Chapter 8
A ripple passed through the serenity of Ruwen’s mind. The third meditation was as close to sleep as Ruwen could get, and his mind and body had welcomed the respite. The wave reminded him of the outside world, and as self-awareness returned, he pushed himself back to consciousness.
