Things have been so busy around here that I forgot to do this on Monday! But here it is, just a day late.
Last week, I:
- Wrote about 4k human words in Bloodfire Legacy,
- Revised about 18k words in The Soulbond and the Sling,
- Generated another 10k words for The Soulbond and the Sling,
- Used AI to revise through another 56k words of The Soulbond and the Sling, and
- Started the outline for the second book in the Rise of the Soulbound King Trilogy, The Soulbond and the Lady.
I am super excited about The Soulbond and the Sling, though I will not release it until the first three books are out. Maybe I’ll post the AI draft to my blog? I think it’s good enough that I can do that. Or maybe I’ll release a free e-arc or something. Still need to think that through–but I would really love to find a way to share this book with people, because it is really a lot of fun. Also, my most ambitious book to date. The final draft will probably clock in somewhere between 150k and 200k words–a solid epic fantasy. And that’s just the first book in the trilogy!
Anyhow, I will try to be better about posting this week, but I am really trying to make as much progress on this WIP over the summer as I can. When the fall comes around, things are going to be crazy busy insane, with our family moving back to Orem, my wife starting a new job, and having a new baby. I may not be able to do any more writing from September to the end of the year, so I’m trying to do as much now as I can!
