Writing Update, August 2018. Resurrected Post.
How is the writing coming along? Well, notional interlocutor, I���ll tell you.
I���m about two-thirds of the way through Captain. At the pace I���m going I should have the first draft complete by mid-October. Captain is the sequel to Boss. The current concept from the publisher is a January release of Boss, a March release of Captain, and a July release of the final volume, Warlord. This is, I think, an optimistic schedule, but I���m doing my best to meet the deadlines.
Once I finish the first draft of Captain, I will write the outline of Warlord. That should require about two or three weeks. Then I���ll return to Captain for the second draft. That shouldn���t take more than a couple of weeks. I hope to get to a final polish/error-checking pass on Boss, before tucking into the third draft of Captain. Finishing that ought to bring me to January, when I will begin the first draft of Warlord. I���ll have to break that off after a month or so to handle the Captain edits, before knuckling down to a tight completion deadline. I���m hoping next year���s March vacation will provide me some bonus writing hours.
How���s everything going with you?
