G Younger: Blog

I want to thank everyone that has sent feedback. I did want to clear up one thing. Junior Year - Book 2 is currently being written. Like Freshman Year, I divided it into 2 Books because of the length. Well that and the fact I didn't think you wanted to wait another year to get it.

The first book of Junior Year took me 13 months to write. The plan is for Book 2 to be ready sometime next summer or early fall.

For those of you that binge read the pre-release ... sorry it takes so long ... and no I don't release chapters before the full book is done. I've found I tend to rewrite things and if I put it out to the world I would feel like I couldn't change it.

Thanks

Junior Year is finally done! I ended up breaking it into two parts because it began to get out of control. I figured after 13 months of writing it was time to deliver.


It's big. 35 Chapters and over 420,000 words.


Target Release Date: 9/24/16


One of my editors, Bud Ugly, has helped me rewrite the first two Stupid Boy Books. I've been told it is a MUCH better read and we fixed some of the story line.


Here is what one of the pre-release readers had to say about Junior Year:


Book of the Year!!!

I have just finished a 36hr binge read of Stupid Boy - Junior Year. I just couldn't put it down! (Sleep - who needs it J )


Once again Greg delivers a masterful story with engaging characters, outstanding plot development and a captivating read.


Stupid Boy - Junior Year is book 4 in the Stupid Boy series. This series is a multiple award winner (Clitorides 2014, 2015 and 2016 {Nominated}) and deserves every accolade!


This series is a coming of age focused on David, who is blessed with some great attributes, however works hard to make the most of things in the face of a series of challenges.


The ups and downs of the story are fantastic and kept me on the edge of my seat!


I highly recommend the Stupid Boy series for anyone that likes outstanding character driven stories with a splash of erotica thrown in!


Shoot me an email if you are interested in the pre-release version or the update Freshman Year books.


Thanks

I'm currently writing the last chapter of Junior Year. I had to break it into 2 parts or I would've never gotten it done ... whew!

The target for posting will be mid to late September. So be on the lookout.

Now for something completely different!
I have a short story that came from sitting around a poker table and listening to my friends tell a few lies... all in good fun. One of them said something that stuck with me. He said 'You Can Sell Anything on Craigslist!'

The next day another friend called me and told how his older sister was giving him a hard time. In joking I told him that he should sell her on Craigslist.

So long story short I couldn't get the concept out of my head. I even tried to pawn the idea off on other writers. So I finally sat down and wrote it. The thing is it is VERY different than anything I've ever written. So much so that I was worried that the readers on SOL wouldn't like it.

Jay Cantrell read it told me to post it. I'm trusting him on this one ... so I'll start posting it this week. I hope you enjoy it.

BlackIrish was a friend first, confidant, collaborator and my editor that I relied on. We lost contact with him a couple of months ago and just confirmed that he passed. I'm saddened that he is no longer with us.

BlackIrish helped me from almost the beginning. He made my stories much better with his no nonsense approach and pulled me back from the ledge many times. I can't express how much I learned from the man. I will miss him.

He made me a better writer and I know he helped many others.

I will raise a glass to his parting and encourage you all to the same. I'll miss you Mr. Bill.

I went and did it. When I took a break to write other things (Little Tony and Getting it Wrong) I needed to get away from David and friends. What I didn't realize was it would give me a chance to step back and come up with a ton of material.

I've written 24 chapters (about 300,000 words) and only gotten through the first of November in my time line. At this rate the book will be over a 100 chapters long. I've been told by more than a few readers that they don't want to wait that long, so I made the decision to split the book into two like I did Freshman year.

The goal is to have it ready to start posting by early fall.

Thanks for the patience.
