Yet another progress update
Hey, Scribers!
How have you been? I love hearing about my readers’ lives, I’m a bit of a voyeur that way. What are you reading? Anything on TV I need to see? What about a great movie?
I’m just wrapping up The Genetic Imperative, by P. Joseph Cherubino. It’s a SciFi set in a world where life on other planets not only exists, it’s coming to get us. I’m really enjoying it and there will be a full review post up as soon as I’m done. You can read more about it here if you can’t wait.
I’ve picked up an excellent book on creating Science Fiction worlds, because, you guessed it, I’m creating a Science Fiction world. I drafted out the intro for the concept around the time I finished drafting out Dream Stalker, or perhaps before. The idea has been knocking around in my head since then, and I’m planning to push the Talented releases out to 90 day increments so I can play in my new world. Don’t worry, Talented has a few more books to go, and I won’t be dropping the series. I know how impatient people get when waiting for sequels (Looking at YOU, Rothfuss!). All kidding aside, my production schedule should see at least two more Talented series books out by the end of the year, along with either a shorter story or some bonus content for the website, another thing I’ve been considering but haven’t gotten around to.
The new series won’t drop for a while. I’m taking a week or two off to read some more SF, to really ground myself in the genre, then will work out how it’ll play. I’m tossing up between a series or a serial, just based on the idea that some short, fast-paced novellas will not only be a fun project, it’ll let me get them out quickly a well. Regardless, the first book won’t drop until the third is written.
Truth Taker will be out near the end of July, though I’m still not sold on the title. As soon as I am, the cover art will be up. I’m expecting it to look amazing, as always.
Just a quick reminder: Dream Stalker is currently available in Kindle Unlimited, but only for the next 20 days. The term ends on the 23rd of this month, at which point you will not be able to borrow it. If it’s on your list, make sure you grab it by then. If it’s in your library when it’s removed from the program, you can hang on to it and read it, but won’t be able to check it out again after you return it. Barrow Fiend will be available for 90 days after release.
To finish up, I want to ask you: which SF books do you love? Why, what is it about those particular books that draws you?
