I am currently working on several projects.
The first is a multi-genre novel called XDA Zai Through the Unfolded Earth, which is about an assassin who travels to places that are inaccessible, impossible or sometimes even imaginary in order to ply his trade--and take lots of photographs. This book is almost complete and I hope to have it pitch-ready by early 2016.
Next I am working on an urban fantasy novel called Sorrow, which is a contemporary retelling of the Irish myth about Deirdre of the Sorrows. I am planning this to be the first book in a trilogy, each of which focuses on a different hero of from Ulster cycle. The second novel, Torque, will be a reimagining of Cuchulain, and the final book will probably be about Seancha.
I am also working on the second issue of the second volume of McBlack. This book is very late due to blowouts in the schedule for The Sixsmiths, but Underbelly Comics, who are contracted to publish a collection of both volumes, have been very patient with me and I'm aiming for the first half of next year. With the demise of Black House Comics I will be self-publishing the single issues in the meantime.
