updates

It's been a few weeks since my last post here. Just wanted to update everyone with what's been going on. All the books have been delayed, timeframes are tough to say right now, as there's a lot going on at home. The Protector still has to be edited and the cover done. Until that's done the 2nd book of The Evil Series won't even be touched so that's gonna be delayed as well. The reason for the delay is that for the time being we took in some family members who had no place to go for a little while. So that's 2 more adults, a baby, and a dog, living in our house. So it's extremely crowded in here and busy and really tough to get any writing related stuff done. In order for me to do things I need a quiet room for a few hours and that's not possible at the moment.

If I had to guess I'd say The Protector should be released in July or August at the latest. That would push back The Woods to probably October or November.

Update

Wow. I can't believe it's been almost 2 months since I posted last. I definitely did not intend to go so long between postings. Just to update what's going: Have not worked on Empire much lately. I've pretty much been working on Shattered non-stop for the last month. It's coming along pretty good. I'd say it's roughly 30-40% done. I'm hoping I can get the 1st draft finished by the end of October and get it into the hands of beta readers. Then maybe take a month for edits. Since it's so close to the end of the year and Christmas I am planning to release it in late December/early January...hopefully to take advantage of those with new Kindles and more sales. By the end of 2011 I'm planning on releasing 6 books. The titles are tentative and likely to change. But here they are:

Shattered (The Evil Series)    (Horror/Thriller)
Empire                                  (Fantasy)
The Woods (The Evil Series) (Horror/Thriller)
Something Wicked (The Evil Series)  (Horror/Thriller)
Something Evil (The Evil Series)  (Horror/Thriller)
Untitled                                     (Thriller)

Updates

It's been a few weeks and I just wanted to update everyone on what I've been working on. I've been working on Empire a little, but I hit the wall with it a little bit, so I've taken a break from it for the last week. So for the last week I've been working on Shattered, coming up with more storyline ideas, trying to blend it together. The first chapter is done, but I'm editing it, and adding to it. I also started some short stories that I've talked about previously. I'm really excited about Shattered and think that it could be one of those breakout books that gets some attention. I'm hopeful anyway. Also, seeing as how's it's book one of at least 4....should be interesting.
