Hey Space Cadets, how’re y’all doing today? I’m doing great, working on a few small projects and prepping to start my next series. While I wait for the editor to take his Red Pen of Doom to my final Sleeping Legion novel, I’ve started outlining several smaller projects and tying up loose ends. I’ve got two short stories for different anthologies to write and then I’ll start on my next series. I really like the premise of the series in question, and think it has a lot of potential but more on that in another blog! Continue reading
Hey Space Cadets! I just got back from my Writer’s Retreat – had to get away so I could get a handle on getting Book Four done. It has been an interesting experience – five days with no children asking me questions or screaming in the background. No wife with a honey do list. It was almost to quiet – wait, is there a to quiet? Well let’s get to it.
somewhat more stressful than it should’ve been. The hotel room wasn’t the nicest, so I had to wait an hour for the maintenance people to fix the AC and turn the hotbox into a hotel room. It didn’t stop me from writing, but it slowed me down. Finally, to fix parts of the strategy I had to research HALO and HAHO drops by the US Army so I knew what we were capable of now. I tend to use modern tech as the base line from which I extrapolate my future tech. Also, I compiled a document for Boss Man on what assets would be joining the main body of the Human Legion on the final battle for Earth. The close of the Sleeping Legion story will link back up with his last book in the Human Legion Series. I love it when a plan comes together!
