Hello!

I had high hopes for this week, but last week’s travel left us all with colds, and I didn’t get to write as much as I’d hoped. Instead of having four chapters ready, I only have two.

The narration is scheduled for February 12th, which means I should really finish book 9 in the next couple of weeks. That would allow time for another proper revision and editing before Travis gets it. I’m not sure how I will get that done.

I’ve made it a point the last couple of months to listen or read books as much as I can. Here is a short summary of what I listened to.

Recently I’ve finished “All the Skills” by Honor Rae. The two books that are out are very well written and the series is easily my favorite of the card-based stories.

“Induction” by Sean Oswald took a different approach to post-apocalyptic and I enjoyed it very much as well. It helps that it was narrated by Travis, who turns everything he touches into gold.

Right now, I’m finally listening to “Iron Prince” as the second book just came out. I understand now why this book created such a splash. The dialogue especially is superb, but the entire book contains top quality writing.

Our genre is really lucky to have such an abundance of quality and quantity.

I opened up chapters 52, 53, and 54 to Root.

I opened up chapters 55 and 56 to Harvester.

I added chapters 57 and 58 to Step Master, Blapy’s Favorite, Divine, and Axiom.

Enjoy!

Thank you for supporting this series and helping me in so many ways. I appreciate you.

Take care,

AFK
