Starting Soon
Writing on the third book will be starting very soon. I am finally getting caught up on a lot of the big projects. There are still a few things to get done, but Winter is sinking her teeth in, and I do not like it. The dark and cold days will give me a chance to…

Ah! More Editing!
I do not like editing these books. I finally got done with the last bit on my end. There is one last grammar and edit check. Unfortunately, I do not know when that will be completed. I would rather have a perfect product a little later than expected than a rushed one out the door…

More Editing and New Book
I should have the second-to-last editing done this week. After that, it is one last grammatical edit, and I’m ready to publish. I hate it when people use poor grammar, but typing 100 words per minute with spell checker auto correcting things can lead to some interesting grammar mistakes. When typing fast, I tend to…

Slow Going at Lightning Speed
I knew this week would bring a virtual halt to “The Amanai Deception” being published. With school, kids, the day job, football practice, and many other factors, I have not had any time to do anything I really wanted to do. The real kicker is how fast this week has passed. It seems like it…

Back to Basics
I hate hearing that term. It seems over used, but perhaps, because no one listens to it. Our lives are very complex. Some tiny-ass country half way around the world can have an effect on how munch money is in my retirement! With our lives all intertwined to a degree that few of us can…

Editing Continues…
Editing continues on “The Amanai Deception”. I will not get that part done by my original date, but that is not always a bad thing. It does take time to go through 279 pages multiple times. Also, this round of editing needs to be complete before going to the grammar police. I, personally, hate poor grammar,…

The Amanai Resistance: Second Edition
After “The Amanai Deception” is finished and published, I am going to republish “The Amanai Resistance”. The second edition is not going to be anything too major. I’ll correct some minor grammar mistakes that completely bug me, add some information about this second book towards the end, and redesign the cover a bit to make…

Can’t Believe It…
I guess it doesn’t matter how many times something is read, the mind fixes mistakes on the run, and it is amazing how many stupid mistakes are left. I wish I could be perfect every time, but I’m never perfect once. I hope it will all be fixed before the final publishing, but knowing there…

Second Round Done
The second round of editing is done. Time to start the third. I will be relieved when the editing is done and this thing is finished. The unfortunate piece is that I will have to start this process all over again with the third book. At least the beginning part of finalizing the story is…

Hope and Time
I hope for a lot of things before time unapologetically stabs me in the kidneys and laughs at me as those hopes dwindle. That is very melodramatic, and in most cases, those hopes are not based in reality. I really hoped someone would just give me a billion or so dollars before I turned 21. …
