It's going slightly smoother than I expected and it should be out for sure during the first week of October. I am over 62% done with the writing and will probably push that towards 75% by the end of the upcoming week.
I thought about releasing a shorter novella for the second one, but decided against it. I want Grand Beast to be a consistent 35000-40000 words on each release.
Even if that means taking a hit in sales and losing some momentum on releases.
