Just an FYI and general stuff
Added 2025-05-09 06:28:19 +0000 UTCSo. I don't have any specifics for them, but Book 2 of AR is nearly done with edits, Book 1 is being sent to the Audiobook production team relatively soon, and I'll move onto Book 3 edits soonish. Book 1 of SoK should be finished getting edited sometime in the next week or so, for me to then go through and do further edits. Things are real exciting on that front, and I just wanted to talk with you all about it!
On the other hand... I posted a little from Investigations of an Unbound Mage. I don't know how many of you actually read it. I don't mind either way if you did or didn't because I just dropped those chapters once and then never mentioned it again, but here's some news on that front. As it's a mystery, it can't be as roll with the punches as my work usually is--it needs to be planned. As such, I've realized there are things that need to be adjusted. Accordingly, I'm not actively writing it right now, but I have book 1 mostly plotted while I work on some other aspects of the story. I enjoy it, and I like writing for Krollas.
On the other other hand, I've been writing. A lot. I post/write about 3500 words a day, not counting weekends. That's a lot! For the past week, I've been writing anywhere from 6k-12k words a day. That's a lot less than I've been posting. I'm now several chapters ahead on both SoK and AR (Never had a backlog beyond Patreon before, and it's kinda... weird. In a good way. I like getting ahead, but it's a foreign feeling to me), and the biggest surprise here is that I have almost 30k words written for another book. Sue me. I like to write.
This new book will be posted sometime soonish, as soon as I have 30 or so chapters written, I'm almost done with chapter 10. The chapters are chunky, about 3k each. I plan to write the entirety of book 1 pretty quick, but it should only be 50 chapters, so a bit longer than AR books. I want it to be really quick to write, and it's intended to be a much less expansive series, with very firm boundaries. I just... planning for a series about continental conflict and 8 countries and another series about ALL the mythologies and godhood... well, it's a lot. This one is just simple.
I don't have a blurb or spiel for it, but the general gist is a girl always wanted to be a Spellblade like her mom, but then the Class assigned to her is the basic Warrior. Even so, she wants to be a delver. A dungeon diving world, kinda like Ultimate Level 1 with some others I've read. This is a story about her having NO magic. Just armor, weapons, and shields vs the world. I think it's a lot of fun. Hope you enjoy it when it comes out. BTW. No idea what that title is gonna be. Anyways. That's just an update from me!
Y'all are the bomb!
