Hey Michael! I know you have many other projects running currently, but as I re-read Revelations, I couldn't help but wonder- have you ever considered writing a series (full length or short stories) revolving around characters attending Sheridan? I would love to learn more about the University, what people study, and certainly more 'screen time' for Arcadius would be AMAZING!

Hey Trent, Sorry for the delay in answering...been really busy and trying to spread out some of the AA stuff.
I always have other projects going. I JUST finished edits on book #3 of my new series (Legends of the First Empire) - it's a 5-book series that explores Novron's backstory and the forming of the First Empire. The entire series is written, and I hope to have Book #4 & Book #5 edited by April or May.
I have a few other ideas I want to explore in Elan.
1. The Fall of Percepliquis - which would be Esrahaddon's backstory
2. A book that occurs after Revelations centering in the goblin-controlled territories
3. Hopefully more Riyria Chronicles - response from The Death of Dulgath has been really positive so I think there will be a 4th, but until I'm in a position to start writing it I won't know for sure.
I don't currently have any Sheridan University stories planned. Maybe I could explore when Arista attended. Don't know. It's an interesting idea. I'll noodle on it and see if I can come up with anything...but seeing as how well Rowlings did a "Wizard School" it'd be pretty hard to top that.
I do think Arcadius will have more screen time in various Chronicle books (if they continue of course). He's a fun character.
Thanks for asking.

Thanks! I've been pulled towards marketing my first book so much this week (launch week), and I'm missing the time writing book #2. You're answer up top just gave me permission! 10% of my time seems about right for the marketing. Besides, I know what I'm doing as a writer....marketing is a whole other ball game. I may need to outsource? Any thoughts on that?
