I forgot to announce this, but from Chapter 244 onwards, I've changed Zuni's name to Koko. ^^
The reason for this is that I'm afraid Suri and Zuni will sound to similar for the audiobooks after all.
I've actually been thinking about it for a while, but with the publication of Book 5 c...

However, Friday chapters will continue as usual!
I'll probably pick up the pace again for a bit after the break, at least until I get all of Book Five out as public chapters. I might have to slow down again for ...
2022-12-19 11:39:21 +0000 UTC View PostI think I'm going to start out posting on Monday and Friday, see how I like it. ^^
These will be two public chapters, not just for patrons, because otherwise the public chapters will be way behind by the time I want to publish the fifth book. ^^'

2022-10-14 12:48:11 +0000 UTC View PostSo, I've got some good news. I'm working with a new time-management method called the Pomodoro technique, and it is paying dividends. ^^
My chapter buffer is back up to eleven, and since I currently don't have any plans of slowing down or much editing to do yet for Book Five, you can probab...

The sale should still be ongoing, but for not much longer, so if you'...

Figured I'd give you guys a bit of an update about my writing progress. ;)
I'm still slowly rebuilding my buffer, up to nine chapters ahead now. It's not going as fast as I'd liked, but... well, c'est la vie.
Hopefully, I'll get to a point again where I can deci...

I had a lovely holiday to the UK, only nearly died once trying to drive on the left, and now I'm back to work! (If you want to hear the full story, feel free to pester me on Discord.)
Hope you all enjoy today's chapter! ^^
2022-08-05 08:22:59 +0000 UTC View PostAll neatly wrapped up, just days before I get on a boat to the UK. ^^

2022-07-05 20:09:12 +0000 UTC View PostFirst some pretty cool news: Unnatural Laws was picked for today's Kindle Daily Deal in the US, meaning it's currently only 99 cents on Amazon! ^^

As always, the new book is available on Amazon and KU! ^^
This book (thankfully) didn't require as many edits as the last one, but I still made quite a few improvements, so if you do have KU or would like to buy a copy, I definitely recommend a (re)read. ;)

0/5 would not recommend. 😒
As a result, I didn't get as much done this week as I'd planned, but progress towards the publication of Book Four was still made. It'll probably be out in like two weeks, though I know better by now than to try and make any guarantees. ;)

2022-05-20 09:51:40 +0000 UTC View PostAs some of you may have noticed, the audiobook version of Unnatural Laws was unavailable for a bit, but it's back now!
The bad news is that I had to re-publish it, and thus lost all of my rather excellent ratings and reviews... The good news is, that since it went Audible-exclusive, I now a...

2022-04-15 11:54:08 +0000 UTC View PostI managed to get all of it done! ^^
The main changes are concentrated in Chapter 189. I recommend a reread for that one, because it's gotten quite a bit longer.
Other than that, there's a new bit at the end of Chapter 188, which is kind of unrelated, but still important. Since i...
2022-04-08 12:05:33 +0000 UTC View PostSo. The last couple of weeks have been unprecedentedly busy and chaotic for me. That's mostly because I had to divide my attention between:
Because of Comic Con. ^^
I fear I'm going to be quite busy tomorrow with last minute preparations, including but not limited to picking up the banner I had made and setting up my stand, so I decided to post a day early.
Enjoy! ^^

Pretty cool, right?
The editing is going quite well, so I'm expecting to publish it in May! ^^

Remember that audiobook version of Book 1 that I occasionally mentioned was being worked on? No? That's okay, it's been a while... :')
Anyway, there were a lot of delays for various reasons, though mostly because my fantastic narrator, Madeline Thaler, and I were both doing this for the tim...

In response to reader feedback upon the publication of Chapter 151, I ultimately decided to rewrite it pretty much from scratch. So, I would recommend a re-read of that, if you're interested in keeping up with the canon. ^^
