4 Items:
1. I have a contract with a financial firm to revamp nearly all of its marketing communications, customer-facing and representative-facing.
2. Final revisions of my 1998 novel, The Pleistocene Redemption. These will be re-submitted June 1 2019 to Liberty Island Media, which has assigned specific changes and--sadly--required the arbitrary cutting of length from 105k words to 70,000 (I cannot artfully go below 78,000 and am quite nervous about the re-submission. If LIM declines, I will reluctantly self-publish at the end of the summer rather than cut (more) "muscle" from this project, re-titled Ancient of Genes (AOG).
3. I am accumulating improvements to The Secrets of Successful Financial Planning for Skyhorse Publishing, which will decide on a second edition around the end of June 2019.
4. My Travels Through Flame (TTF) anthology has just 3 of 10 story pairs complete: Pairs 1, 3 and 4 are complete but the second in that series has been set aside for too long. I must complete pair 2 before moving forward with the others. TTF is a sequel to AOG, in the form of short stories, one set in ancient times, one in the near future. These progress like chapters in a novel. (See StoriesAmazing.com for all of my fiction). At least all 20 stories are outlined!
