Phase:<\/span>3.0 Draft<\/div><\/div>

MyBookProgress by Author Media<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n

It’s done! Draft 2.0 of\u00a0The Sword Keeper<\/strong> is finished. Still need to run it by some test readers, but it’s looking very good for a release this year.<\/p>\n

In other news, the power cable for my laptop decided to die. I’ll replace it eventually, but in the meantime, I’m going to try turning my phone into a writing device. Just got a K480 bluetooth keyboard<\/a> and I’m excited to try it out. My phone is a device I’ve always got with me, so adapting it for writing could be really\u00a0great.<\/p>\n

I’m also going to try a new writing technique that should hopefully lead to cleaner (perhaps even publishable) first drafts. If it works, this\u00a0could significantly increase my writing output. It involves cycling through yesterday’s words before writing any new ones, getting into the flow and making any changes as necessary. This is actually very close to how I used to write back in high school, before all those college English classes. I also get the sense that this is how Dean Wesley Smith writes.<\/p>\n

All sorts of experimental new things going on with my next WIP, which is\u00a0Edenfall.<\/strong> Yes, it’s time to complete the trilogy. But before I jump into it, I’m going to take some time to do some serious prewriting, in the hopes (again) of writing a clean first draft. Which, if it works, means that the book will be published that much sooner.<\/p>\n

In the meantime,\u00a0Gunslinger to the Stars<\/strong> is almost ready for publication. My editor is working on it now, the cover art is just about finished, and besides that all that’s really left is crafting the book description and metadata. If all goes well, it should be up for pre-order on iBooks, Kobo, Smashwords, and Nook before the end of the month.<\/p>\n

Also, new short story!<\/p>\n
