What’s next?

SHIELD OF POWER is done, so the first third of my Super Summer Of Finishing Things is complete.

So, what’s next?

My next main project is STEALTH & SPELLS ONLINE: FINAL QUEST. It was originally going to be named REACTANT, but I changed the title to FINAL QUEST to emphasize, really and truly, that this is the final book in the trilogy.

And in fact I am already done with the rough draft!

You know how I always say that if you keep chipping away at a novel over a long enough time, sooner or later you’ll finish it? That is exactly what happened here. Since October 2024 I’ve been writing 500 words day on FINAL QUEST, and this piled up enough so that after SHIELD OF POWER came out, I only had to write 3,000 more words to finish the book, and I did that in an afternoon.

Editing is now underway for FINAL QUEST, and I very much want to have it out by the end of the month.

I am also 20,000 words into GHOST IN THE SIEGE, which will be my main project once FINAL QUEST is finished.

In audiobook news, GHOST IN THE CORRUPTION and SHIELD OF BATTLE should be arriving on Audible before too much longer.
