I can hardly believe it’s been a whole year since I first posted “On the Highway” and watched the download numbers climb. “Hey! People are reading my stuff.” Feedback was positive, and I got to know some of you well. Since then, I’ve foisted several more stories on you while behind the scenes tweaking my processes to maintain a more sustainable flow of tales. Since that first big rush has emptied the coffers, I’m working on newer stuff at a more reserved pace.
What’s upcoming? Subscribers heard in August, but here’s the summary:
The rest of October, I’m finishing the second draft of “Not Yet” a standalone story. Then it’s on to NaNoWriMo in November. This year, I’ll be drafting another sci-fi tale, tentatively titled “Star Waif and the Grump.” After that’s in the freezer, I’ll rework the partial rough draft for “Aiden Ascending.” Aiden is by far my most popular character and story. Finishing out the year will be the final polish on “The Coach’s Wife,” so I can introduce Hiram early next year.
Meanwhile, the beat goes on. I’ve submitted Chapter 31 of “Aiden and The Ring” for posting. Kendra pleads for Gina’s intervention with Aiden. Aiden visits her office and plans are made. Chapter 32 is now available on Subscribestar.
While it’s not been as lucrative an endeavor as I’d wished, it’s never really been about the money. Writing continues to be incredibly fun and my thanks to every one of you for your support, feedback, and constructive criticism.
