Progress Updates

We're wrapping up the 12th chapter soon for Lucifer's Odyssey in the redraft, and the story is looking great. I have put the first three chapters up on the Novels page, so if you are wanting a sneak peak at what is in store, feel free to check it out. We're thinking this first book will be out by September, now, instead of my initial projected dates. Sorry for the delay.

I did a collaboration on a flash fiction with Jeanne Miller for a second entry into the Pink Snowbunnies in Hell Flash Fiction anthology. We'll see if either of my two submissions make it into the collection. If not, I'll be sure to link them on the blog so others can read them.

No changes have been made to Dead Winter, and that one will need redrafting as well. Depending on reader wishes, I may push that one back quite a bit and focus on a 2nd Primal Patterns book instead.

Dead Winter

Unfortunately, my dissertation work has impeded me from focusing completely on The Winter Phenomenon, but I am still writing, and the novel is now up to 46,000 words. From the direction that the text has taken, I have come to feel that future books are inevitable on this particular setting, and it will definitely be a series.

However, in that case, "The Winter Phenomenon" appears to be a more fitting series descriptor. The novel title has been subsequently changed to "Dead Winter", and the second in the series is likely to be "Cold Winter" which will detail Travis Winter's story. "Warm Winter" is either going to be Ursula or her son.

In other novel news, I haven't heard back from Christopher about the Lucifer's Odyssey banner ads, but I'm not worried. Everything should be set for its release in July. As for "Cold Winter", that could launch as early as October to catch the Halloween and Christmas holidays!
