Daniel T. Jackson:
What is the title of Book Two of the Illborn Saga going to be? Please will you provide a writing progress update as at 1st May 2022?
Daniel T. Jackson
The title of book two is going to be… Aiduel’s Sin.
(please note that I shall remain steadfastly tight-lipped in response to any queries as to what the title refers to!)
Book two writing progress update as at 1st May 2022:
I finished draft one of Aiduel’s Sin at the end of last December. Since then, I have been working hard on rewriting and editing, and generally on improving the book. I have now completed c85-90% of that editing process, and intend to complete the rest of that work during May.
I have also sent the first two thirds of the edited book out to my beta readers, and I am delighted with the positive reaction so far.
After I have finished edits and rewrites, I want to spend a few weeks doing a final ‘polishing’ edit of the whole book, and my target is to have the manuscript completely finished before the UK school summer holidays in July (but if I decide before then that it needs more time and work, that is what it will get!).
The publication date thereafter will be dependent on what publishing route I decide to go down, so unfortunately, I am still not able to state a specific publication date. I will aim to announce a definite publication date before the end of the summer.
I hope that the above is of some interest, and apologies that I am still remaining vague about precise dates.
In conclusion, I am excited to finish writing Aiduel’s Sin and to share Book Two of The Illborn Saga wih my readers. I am massively grateful to everyone who has read and enjoyed ILLBORN, and I would love for you to continue the journey onto book two of the series.
