[Author's Note: I know it has been awhile since we've had an Ash chapter. This one was actually written almost a month ago. With the impending deadline for book 10 I don't know how much I'll be able to write on SoA this month, but I'll try. Starting in June there will be an opportunity to hit the...
2024-05-06 21:31:41 +0000 UTC View PostHi!
I had a good week of writing and while I’m still not where I need to be wordcount wise, I’m much closer. The physical therapy on my wrist/arm is helping so that also got better this week.
The chapters this week are the last of the setup before we start the main arc of the book...

Hi!
I always think I’ll have plenty of time to write these updates and then release time comes and I find myself barely awake at three in the morning. So, that’s why this is shorter than normal.
I had a great week all things considered. My health is better and I’m more productiv...

Hi!
This week I made some much needed changes to my lifestyle. Specifically, I’ve been getting more sleep and drinking more water. I’ve had one health issue after another and I think some of it can be traced back to not taking care of myself like I should. So, I’m hopeful that this co...

Hi!
I did a little better this week and have one chapter for each story. Another Ash chapter is with the editor and I’ll release that when I get it, probably this weekend. I need to find my pace soon or I’m going to have to put the Ash story on hold, as I need to finish book 10 by early...

Ash settled back into the nylon mesh seat, and carefully placed the VOX headset back over his ears. For the first time, Captain Riegel’s voice filled his ears through the noise-canceling headphones. Despite the loud environment of the C-130, much noisier than the helicopter, th...

Hi!
This week went well. There are still some kinks to work out on the editing process but that should only last another couple of weeks. I have high hopes for my productivity in the next few months as we have some help with the little ones.
The replacement book nines arrived so I wil...

Alyssa Riegel watched as Shamrock reached the top of the C-130 ramp and disappeared into the depths of the aircraft. She turned to Colonel Rogers, who stared thoughtfully at the now empty ramp.
“Good luck and Godspeed, Captain,” the Colonel said and then faced her. “W...

I’ll post an update shortly about the week, but I wanted to let everyone know that I will release more chapters as soon as they come out of editing. I have three book 10 chapters and another Ash chapter currently in edits.
Thanks for being patient with me as I transition to this...

Ash leaned back into the hard seat. Whatever had happened deep underground apparently revealed and woke something that appeared sapient. It also left him uncomfortably aware of the faint outlines in the periphery of his vision that allowed him to pull up his profile, a map, or hi...

I’m not releasing any chapters tonight. ☹ This almost never happens but the last week held a lot of challenges. In addition to the pain in my left wrist/forearm (doctor prescribed some PT so hopefully it gets better) I got hit by a migraine. Thankfully I don’t have migraines much ...
2024-03-30 06:53:26 +0000 UTC View PostHey,
This week the major thing that happened was I decided to act on some good advice. I think I can manage dictating (RSI is still bad) six chapters a week, but I can’t edit six chapters in a week as well.
So, I’m going to change my process. Specifically, I’ll add an edit...

Hi!
I keep forgetting to mention that I'll be shipping signed book 9s out soon (to those who are in the proper tier). Half of the shipment I received from amazon was damaged so I had to reorder them, hence the delay.
Also, I'm super behind on answering comments. I plan to get to them,...

“Teams?” Ash asked. “How many are there?”
Captain Riegel responded. “There are two. The first is led by Nomad and is comp...
