I know, I know. I said there’d be nothing until August, but I feel for all of you sweltering out there on the surface of the Sun. As such, since I’m home for a couple of days, I’ve submitted Chapter 25 of “Aiden and The Ring” for posting. Aiden meets Kimberly, his SPOILER. Chapter 26 is also now available to my wonderful supporters on Subscribestar.
My time was not only spent vacationing. I took lots of photos supporting future stories to be set in the late 1800s or early 1900s. Likewise, I’ve kept Discord updated with my progress on a new story moving from rough draft as well as my turning a re-energized sci-fi short into a full novel in “The Ring Saga.” The muses did their magic and fused several concepts, enhanced the characters, and built an intriguing plot.
In the few days I have at home, I’m focusing on a commissioned story and will take a quick stab at the next chapter of “The Immortal.” After much deliberation, I’ve decided Jim’s tale will remain serialized. It has an ending, but there’s no way to cut 450k+ words into “books.” Instead, I will polish, enhance with external plot, and post as time permits. One day, the tome may end up for sale on Bookapy, but no time soon.
Once more, I’m humbled and must reiterate my appreciation to those of you who’ve purchased my works on Bookapy. In this insane economy, every penny is becoming critical. Both SOL and I thank you for your support. Likewise, with bourbon and coffee prices rocketing skyward, my lovely generous Subscribestar supporters ensure I’m able to continue.
As I continue to travel, I’ll remain available on Discord for feedback, comments, or chats. Link in my profile. Subscriber or not, everyone has access to The Lounge, and I’d love to hear from you.
