Kenn Ghannon: Blog

First of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS and (in case I forget or don't post before then) I wish you all a most happy and prosperous New Year.

For those practicing Judaism - Happy Hannukah (I hope I spelled that right). For those non-Christians, Happy Holidays. I think that covers everyone. :)

Runesward, Tome 2 is winding down. I'm in the middle of Chapter 71 and a bit stuck on how I want to present a few things, but I hope to use the next week to work it out. My best guess, at present, is I'll need Chapter 72 and possibly Chapter 73 to wind up this book.

Yren's journey will continue in Tome 3, which I'll likely begin writing in April, if everything works out. I have to write 'InCAPable' (Calix's next story) first and I've been doodling around on a few other stories that have been hanging around in my head for years, so don't hold me to that schedule. I will say that I hope to begin publishing Tome 3 by August - but that's just a guess.

Once Tome 2 is complete, I will update Tome 1 and Tome 2 with all of the fixes my crowd-source editors have found. I will then see about publishing them in Bookapy - in case anyone wants a full copy for a nominal fee (I'm not looking to make money here - this is just a hobby - but I want to be sure to cover any overhead Lazeez incurs and maybe get a couple of shekels for my retirement fund). If things work out, I'm considering posting Tome 3 in Bookapy first, and then posting chapter by chapter here. There are a number of other, respected authors doing that and I've had a couple of requests to do similar so I'm considering it.

Anyway, not sure I'll blog again this year - so I hope all of you have a safe, enjoyable holiday.

I have some personal issues to attend to and will be out of town for the rest of the week.

I *WILL* be posting this week - I'll set it up today or tomorrow to post on Saturday as normal. I'll likely be even less responsive to email this week, though.

Thank you!

Hello. I’ve had an unexpected death in my family and have been out of town since Thursday. I completely forgot I was supposed to post a chapter.

I will post again possibly late next weekend.

Just a quick word of caution. I'm down to two completed chapters left and two more in various stages of being written. I will post the two chapters (one this week, one next) but I might need a week or two to finish off more content before I can post again.

You've been warned.

I am way behind. I'm going to try to keep updates regular but... I'm behind on email, I'm behind on writing, and I'm still trying to catch up from losing all of my story plots, notes and etc.

I was able to find some VERY OLD, handwritten notes (I used to keep them in NOTEBOOKS[!], can you imagine that? I was SUCH a luddite...) that contained some background and so forth about ONE of the story ideas 'Runesward' is based upon. I'm building up my current notes from having read the story recently and those notes I took maybe 15 years ago. Hold onto your hats...

I want to thank everyone who has emailed in the past month. I know you've written. I will write back. There are just not enough hours in the day, currently. Please bear with me...
