It's Been a While.

 

I had planned to write at least one blog post a month. Sadly, I failed at that this year, but it was with good reason. Allow me to explain.

Another author had recommended that I try writing a LitRPG novel some time ago because I used to be a massive gamer growing up. I liked the idea of it, but I had no ideas for a story, so I let it be for the time being. Well, one day, the idea for a novel hit me a month after I had finished writing a passion project of mine. This would be titled, Escape From Crescendo Station One, but I will tell that story later.

My debut LitRPG novel was written in two months. Titled, Ataris Station. It is something I am very proud of. I ended up working with a new editor, a lady who specialises in the genre, and she helped shape the manuscript into something wonderful. I am looking forward to releasing it when the time comes.

Other ideas for stories in the genre hit me while I was writing Ataris Station, including two more standalone stories and two series. I decided I needed to change things around to reflect on where I would be taking my writing. So, I wrote a prologue short story for the first series, called Annex of Alhena, that tells the origin of one of the main characters. It will be a mailing list exclusive, replacing Wasteland Vigilante, which will get its own proper release shortly.

As a result, the next two months will be busy ones for me with three releases in total. I am excited about it, because it feels like real progress for me. I have also developed working relationships with other authors who have been encouraging me along the way. It is so nice to have such wonderful people cheering me on.

For those of you who have stuck by me throughout this time, I thank you for doing so. I will do my best to keep entertaining you.
