Midsummer Update

We’re about halfway through July, so here’s a quick update on how things are going!

Inheritance of Magic #3 is now up to 75,000 words and pretty close to its end.  I’m currently expecting the full manuscript to come in between 80,000 and 90,000 words, meaning that I should only have two or three chapters to go.  I’m not sure exactly how long it’ll take to finish, but I’m pretty confident I’ll be able to hit my personal deadline of getting the book done some time in August.  Once that’s done I’ll send it off and finally take a break!

An Instruction in Shadow is now only three months from release.  As usual, I’ll release some extracts early – I’ll probably release Chapter 1 in early August and Chapter 2 in early September.  We’ve also got a finished version of the UK cover ready to go.

My next project for the Beginner’s Guide to Drucraft series will be a mini-series on the branches – Light, Matter, Motion, etc.  This isn’t very ‘mini’, though – it’s an absolutely huge subject, so it’ll probably take me a while to make any major progress on it.

And that’s it for now.  Priority #1 for the next few weeks is finishing the current book, so posting on this blog is likely to be light for the next month or so.
