Hey guys,

I'm happy to say book 2 of Level One God just launched on Amazon this morning.

Kindle Unlimited: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FVZF9SBX
Audible: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GFF8XYPZ/
Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GLN9JKDR

Also, if you're on reddit and want to help the launch post I made get a little more visibility, please feel free to upvote and/or comment on my post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/litrpg/comments/1r1zrmf/level_one_god_book_2_is_out_on_kindleunlimited/

I also wanted to give an update on the future of posting for book 4 and beyond. Right now, I'm still working on the romantasy and hoping to jump into book 4 when that is finished. But I do have to admit if book 2's launch really improves on what book 1 did and it feels like momentum is building, I could see myself being tempted to pause the romantasy and get into book 4 so there's less of a delay between book 3 and 4 hitting amazon.

The other kind of exciting bit of news (weirdly) was I recently learned I have sleep apnea. It's completely possible that treatment won't work that well, or maybe the case isn't severe enough to impact my creative output each day... BUT I honestly kind of feel like it has been holding me back. At least I'm kind of hoping it's an explanation.

But they'll be shipping me a CPAP (breathing device for sleep apnea you wear at night) in roughly 2 weeks, and from what I understand, the results can be kind of immediate with more improvement over a month or so.

The reason I bring this up as exciting news is because I've been in a pattern for a few years now where I cram as much productivity as I can into the first 2-3 hours of my work day because I tend to get overwhelmingly sleepy and drained after that. It's not uncommon for me to take 1-2 hour naps in the middle of my workday and wake up only feeling a little better. And if I ignore the naps, I wind up pretty useless as far as creative output goes because it feels like my brain is operating with lag.

So if the whole apnea thing is the cause of that and the CPAP works, I can kind of imagine being able to write both books at the same time possibly? Anyway, I can't promise anything because I don't really know how well it will work, but I did want to throw that out there because I'm excited about the possibility and wanted to share.

That's all! And if you are on any kind of subreddits or groups or whatever where people talk about lit RPG, please consider mentioning Level One God if the opportunity ever comes up! Every little bit of word of mouth helps a ton.

Thanks again,
Zack

Congrats on the launch of book 2! Already started reading it. BTW my wife also has sleep apnea and the CPAP really helped her with getting a good night's sleep and feeling rested. One word of caution though, expect to take at least a few weeks to get used to wearing it. There's also a lot of different mask options and accessories you can look into.

Thanks for the update, i just bought a couple of book 2 (delivery the 25th 😀), any idea when 3 will be on amazon? I wanna gift them to some friends that are reading it, but like books more.

Hayden Hodge

Just bought Book 1 and 2. Been here since book 1 has been being released. Always happy to give you the support, once again thank you for your updates and clear communication. It’s simply for that reason I have stayed during the content droughts while you work on your other projects.

As someone who also has “only mild sleep apnea” the CPAP was such a game changer. It took me all of 3 days to get used to it (the default nose pillow mine came with works great for me) and my quality of sleep and life drastically improved. I don’t wake up feeling more tired than when I fell asleep anymore.

C-pap rocks when you got sleep apnea. Suddently sleeping 8 hours without waking up is awesome! I found that the full face mask didnt work that well, but the nose one works really well.

Preston Bowers

Even if you still can't work on two books at once being able to put a few more productive hours in can really shorten the time it will take to finish both books. Either way, stay healthy

It was sooooo good! I'm excited for three!!

Hey James! I'm still alive. Just kind of holding out my final decision on L1G until book 3 launches. I'll be honest though. Right now it doesn't look great for the series based on current performance. But I'm crossing my fingers something will change and maybe the third book will boost interest in it. At the moment, though, the math is kind of like... Book 1 is earning about 30% of what it would need to earn for it to be even remotely financially viable. Book 2 earned about 10% of that. If book 3 earns a fraction of what book 3 earns, and so on, then the already bad math just kind of keeps getting worse. So it's one of those frustrating situations where it kind of doesn't matter how much I want to write the story. I don't have enough creative output in me each day to treat another series like a hobby, either, since writing is what I do for a living. I unfortunately have to find a balance between things that are fun for me to write but also things that earn enough for us to keep the lights on. Anyway, there's still a chance if maybe book 3 turns a few on-the-fence people into huge fans and they go talking about it everywhere. Sometimes it happens for books, but I do have to acknowledge it's a slim chance at this point.

@zachary Scott, I just picked up your series 2 weeks ago and just finished everything through royal road. I’m sharing everything with my friends and will reread book 3 on live launch next week! Hopefully it’ll be successful enough to continue the story. It’s fantastic, it just never popped up on my audible or kindle as suggested until recent. Hopefully others also start to pick it up. Cheers

James Hays

Sorry to see you giving up a good story.

Victor Ford

Just recently binged all three books you wrote and I was hoping for an update on whether you’ve decided to continue on or not. I really enjoyed the series as well as the mechanics and world building in the series and I’m hopeful that there will be a fourth book but I’d like to know if it’s something that you will do I saw your latest update in a previous comment but it was from a month ago.

That's very disappointing, this is one of the only stories I've read for free that I've bought a copy of for myself.
