Hi!

Happy New Year! Mine started with travel and a head cold (which is why the Hamma chapters were delayed a day). But on a positive note, I finished the first draft of book seven on Tuesday. I had intended for this book to only be around 110k words. Instead, it ended up at 157k. Only The Fourth Secret (barely) and The Sixth Rune are bigger. There are 88 chapters and an epilogue. Whew!

I am working on getting the third revision done so I can hand it off to the editor. Then I’ll likely start on book eight, instead of starting something new (but related). While I slowed down considerably at the end of the year, the beginning of December I was a writing machine. I hope to channel this energy in 2023 and have book eight out in July.

Travis is ready for the book on February 5th. I’ll keep you updated on changes as I know many of you like to listen to him live stream his performance. We are so lucky to have him as the voice of this series.

Hamma’s Last Prayer first draft is also done and we are going through it again now. I really hope to get it released before book seven, even if it’s just a couple of weeks. Audio for that will be performed this summer, and I’ll provide more details about that later.

Covers for both books will start the week after next. It is the same designer that did The Sixth Rune so I hope we get two epic covers. I’ll share those on Patreon as soon as I have them.

So much is happening!

I opened chapters 61, 62, and 63 to Root.

I opened chapters 64, 65, and 66 to Harvester.

I added chapters 67, 68, and 69 to Step Master, Blapy’s Favorite, and Divine.

Enjoy!

Thank you for starting the year with me. I appreciate you and your support, and hope to provide a ton of excitement in 2023. Thank you!

Take care,

AFK
