Update Time! (Patreon)

Hey all, sorry for the long period of silence.

This year has been pretty rough and I've still been dealing with hand issues. Mostly pain and limited range of movement. Editing this second Hollow book ended up taking me a lot longer than anticipated, primarily because it's so mouse intensive. Just a couple hours usually has my hand aching and locking up. And this after months of not being able to use it at all and then more months of physical therapy. On the mental health side, this hasn't been awesome either -- since it's stripped away most of my favorite activities. Like writing, videogames, and lifting. At times, even performing basic household tasks.

However, I'm on the mend and the PT is helping, albeit slowly. I've had almost a whole week with no pain! So there's a light at this end of this tunnel.

Which is all just to say...

Thank you all of being so supportive and understanding. You're awesome.
 

Which is also why I'm happy to deliver some good news!

Hollow #2 (tentatively called "Secrets") is done!

I just sent it out to the proofer today (final easy step). I also touched base with Audible and they're looking at a release sometime Q1 2025 right now. I'll try to sync the ebook/print and audio again. Once I have a firm release date, I'll release EA copies about a month or so prior to launch.

Oh and here's a little sample of a new t-shirt design. We might also be working on one for all the [Battle Daddies] out there lol.

And with this book finally finished...

That means Awaken Online is up next! Wooooo!

I actually used some of the downtime to go back through the previous two books and outline my way forward. There are a lot of moving pieces after Timeless -- as well as quite a few characters. However, I have pretty clear vision for the next book and hopefully it will come together quickly now that I'm relatively pain free. Once I have a little lead built up, I'll start posting chapters again. Right now, my guess is a month or so - just to be safe.

That's all for now! And thank you all again for the support!
