Almost there.

I have passed the fifty thousand word mark in Book 3 of my Killing the Dead series.

This makes book three, in it’s incomplete form, as long as book two.

If all goes well then Book 3 will be released in September. I am excited about this for a couple of reasons.

The first of course, is because it is always exciting releasing a new book. It is also terrifying as I wait for those first reviews or comments that let me know how it is received.

The second is because I am really loving the way the character is progressing through book 3. A great many things are happening and I am trying to lead them all into what I hope to be a heck of a finale.

Once all three books are released I can focus a little more on getting the word out about my work. At the moment I have been offering the occasional freebie in return for an honest review on Goodreads and thankfully I have been receiving very good reviews there which show up nicely on my author page.

I do tweet occasionally and I am a member of several groups. I have done a couple of author interviews and sent copies of my ebook to a couple of review sites. This is all in an effort to get eyes on my books. To get people interested and excited to read my work. Which is important to me. I mean sure, I would love to be able to actually make money from selling my books but I am also excited with the idea that I have created something that people really enjoy. That is what I am aiming for and perhaps one day people will eagerly await the newest release of my books.

Until then, I shall persevere and sacrifice my leisure time to keep writing, to keep creating and enjoying the stories, even if I am one of only a few who ever read them.
