The Intruders (Visitors Trilogy, #1)
Today, I am announcing my upcoming novel, The Intruders (Visitors Trilogy, #1). You may know this novel by it's former name, The Arrival. I have changed the name, though, and I like this one much better.
For those of you who don't know, this is what the book is about:
It started with the mysterious Visitors, who appeared over The White House in their spaceship. Days go by with seemingly no contact, until one day, they leave. Moments later, almost everybody on Earth disappears into thin air.
Seve...

The One Star Review
That's right. I finally got what I've been waiting for: a one star review. Yes! You read that correctly! I finally got what solidify's me as a writer. Isn't this what all writers get? To be honest, I was born with a tough skin, so this doesn't really bother me. Besides, everything that this reviewer said is stuff that I've realized on my own, and took the steps to improve myself in the next installments of The Runners. I think we can all agree that Caught is much better...

The Paranormal Sisters "Dare You to Read" The Runners!
One of the things that I love about being an author – well, actually, it's the number onething I love – is my fans. Without you guys, none of this would be even possible. So, it makes me extremely happy to see things like THIS. Dashley, who has commented here on the blog, runs a website along with her sister called, well, you guessed it, The Paranormal Sisters (paranormalsisters.blogspot.com). On that website, they run a feature called Daring You To Read, where they dare you to read a book...

Name Change & Editors
So, I decided that book one in The Visitors will no longer be called The Arrival. The reason for this is because there is already a popular book called that, and the new name for it is much more awesome. What is it? That is a secret! I will tell you once I reveal the cover art for it, which will be a few weeks. I'm getting the cover art done by a professional, so I cannot wait to see what it looks like. If you guys have any cover artist's that you suggest, comment and let me know!
Secondly, I ...

The Things to Come
Today (well, tonight for me), I am going to let you guys not what I have planned for the future.
The first thing I am going to release is The Arrival. I am so excited to release it. I am about 1/3 done writing it, and am hoping to have it out in the next month or so. I'm around 25,000-30,000 words done with it (can't remember exactly). I love the story so, so, much.
Next up, is The Runners Anthology. I am going to have all five of The Runners professionally edited, and re-released in eBook and ...

EDEN is now available!
That's right, folks. The final installment in The Runners series is now available on Amazon! Just click HERE to get it!
It's not free at the moment, because Amazon takes 2-3 month to make something free after you ask them to. Sorry for the wait, for those of you who aren't going to buy it until it's free. It's only .99, and it's a couple thousand words longer than Wake, so it's worth it.
Happy Reading,
Logan.

More coming soon.

Update on EDEN
Just dropping in to give you a quick update on Eden.
RIght now, I am currently writing the scene where Adam and Eve meet up with Brutus. And, well, some pretty crazy stuff is about to go down. However, for some odd reasons, Eden is tough for me to write. I feel like I've set the bar pretty high, and it seems hard for me to reach it. Oh well. I'm giving it my best, and that's all that I can do.
Here's a blurb for Eden that I cooked up.
Note: This blurb is not final.
The end is here.
Armed with the ...

My Writing Process
So, today, I am going to be talking about my writing process. We are going to be covering these topics:
1. My Writing Desk
2. The Software I Use
3. How I Outline
4. My Writing Mindset
Those are the four things I am going to be covering today! First off:
1. My Writing Desk
Here's a picture of my writing desk:
Why am I showing you a picture of it? I have no clue. It really had nothing to do with how I write, but I just fell that it's important that you guys have a good mental picture for future...

The Arrival
Hey guys!
So, today, I thought I would tell you a little bit about my upcoming novel, The Arrival (The Visitors, Book One)!
So, basically, it's about this sixteen-year-old kid named Charlie Freeman. He's at home one day, when he sees on the TV that a giant spaceship has appeared over the White House. The ship sits there, and does nothing. Seemingly no contact is made. Then, a couple days later, the ship disappears. Moments later, six-and-a-half billion people disappear into thin air. Now...
