Well, it's been a while. Last time I updated you, I was traveling the world. Since then, I have had a hard time deciding what to do next. I'm back in the saddle now and ready to share what's next. In short, I'm joining the Royal Road. First and foremost, I've done some research on the best ways to get my work out there. I've settled on a web community called Royal Road where a lot of hopeful writers share their work out there to hopefully start building a fan base. This is the part that I had hoped would have been achieved through organically building my blog, but the growth just wasn't where it needed to be by posting… Continue reading Here We Go Again!

Afterthoughts – The Apostate Saint, Rome & What Comes Next

I delivered a chapter once per week in a similar way to that of my first book - the novelization of The Oro Goro, that some of you may remember.

And, as everything worth doing is, it's definitely a process. But through processes that work, we can achieve anything.

In a perfect world, I would be able to write three to four hours a day no matter what, but unfortunately they don't make the days 28 hours long. For the time being, I will be refocusing what time I normally spend writing blog posts on rewriting of Pancho's Fall.
New Blog Format & Schedule – Focus on Writing
Hello friends! I am happy to report that my book Oro Goro is now in proper status to allow some Alpha readers. You will likely recall that I used to post this book, one chapter at a time, to my blog each Friday. I have learned a lesson by doing this, and thus have hidden all of these posts. While I thought the posts were decent enough for a first draft, I realized that there was much more to the story that needed to be told once I began revisions. I have added several chapters and have fixed much on the other chapters that existed in the first draft. Now, the book is only available to be read as a… Continue reading New Blog Format & Schedule – Focus on Writing
