Progress Update
2019 had a promising start with the publication of Shards of Faith in early spring. But it ended up being a challenging year for me personally, which made it difficult to get substantial writing done on the next book. That doesn’t mean I wasn’t working, however. I used my creative dry spell as a time to get other things accomplished, like a much needed re-edit of Journey to Aviad, and my series timeline, which is now quite extensive and current to the chapter I’m writing now. Though it’s not something readers will ever see, it was important for me to make sure I hadn’t accidentally made any mistakes, and that I don’t make any going forward.
By the end of 2019 I was really starting to feel the pressure, and I managed to get my writing back on track. Now in 2020, I’m making up for lost time and really kicking things into high gear. Between Jan-Feb I managed to get out 30,000 words, which is a pretty significant chunk. So far I’m on track in March to best my numbers from February. Numbers aside, the point is that I’m making good progress toward keeping my promise of publishing the next book this year. If I can stay on track, I’ll have this book finished before summer, which will be a huge relief to me, and great news for all you readers who have been waiting patiently.
