G Younger: Blog

One of my plugins is eating up all my resources, so the site is timing out. Apparently, a chosen few have gotten through, but not many.

My hosting site has thrown more bandwidth at it, but the real solution will be to have a professional look at it. This might take a while...

I will post a blog when it is up and working.

The Advance Reader Copy will be out next week. I will send out an email to let everyone know when it is available.

A Better Man I is now out and called Missed Signals. It was my first effort at writing something other than first person, so it came across as stilted, in my opinion. My editing team has done a fantastic job of fixing that. It is a much better read now.

Both books will be on my website, and if you're not on my email list, you can periodically check in for ABMIII. I will also put Missed Signals on Bookappy soon.

Thanks

The updated version is now up. The one that went up this morning was the rough draft my editors send me, and I hadn't accepted their changes.

I will begin posting on August 26 and 27. It will then post every Sat. and Wed. until it is done.

ABM III will be ready this fall. I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel to be able to wrap that one up.

Some feedback for ABM II:
This is by far your best effort. The James Bond movie scenes I could see being filmed. I was on the edge of my seat, it was that good. Then later, I was laughing out loud with my wife looking at me like I was crazy.

I've read you since the beginning, and your technical skills and storytelling have continued to improve. I absolutely loved Third Son and The Valley, but you hit your stride with A Better Man 2.

... for Third Son.

I realize it was a departure from what I normally write, but this is the kind of story I grew up reading. Because of that, you would think it would be easy to write. Not the case at all. My editors and I tried to make it as realistic as possible, but at some point, it is a work of fiction and allowances had to be made.

In the end, I was happy with how it turned out.

So, what's next?

The original plan was to start posting my story about a boy whose family is in the porn business, called The Valley. I've decided to hold that off and begin posting A Better Man Book 2 toward the end of August. The Valley will follow that in the Spring.

Note that we are beginning to re-read through ABMII and fix or make changes that the Advance Readers helped us identify. After not looking at it for several months, it gives me a chance to look at a story with fresh eyes -- code for I am old and forgot what I wrote. I personally think this is the best in the series to date.

A Better Man Book 3 is halfway done. Just sent the 27th chapter to my editors to fix it. I'm feeling better about releasing an Advanced Reader Copy in late Fall. When I get closer to the release date I will let everyone know.
