Hey guys! I decided to try to get this update on time for you this time. The last update was on Jan 8th, and I was at 72k on my Draft, and now I'm at 132k already for well over 60k in the last month (I didn't have progress from 1st to 1st). It's been pretty productive, and we're now nearing the end of the book.


I got confirmation from Royal Guard that Jack and Anne will begin recording Audibook 5 shortly, and planning on finishing recording middle of March for a planned April release. 


I am now off of work for a few weeks, so this will be a little bit like a trial run of what it might be like for me to be an author full time. I do plan on trying to write a lot over the next three weeks(though I have some personal shit I'm going to need to get done anyway), and see how much work I can get done. It's my hope that I can finish Soul Knight Book 1, and start working again on Bonded Summoner Book 6 in tandem with SK Book 2, alternating chapters between the two. 


I hope folks are enjoying Soul Knight so far, and those of you that joined because of Soul Knight, that you check out Bonded Summoner! They are both very different main characters and stories, but I think the focus on progression, lovable monster girls, and then an epic setting is something that ties the two stories together.


I thought it would be fun to try asking folks to ask questions they have for me. They can be about the stories, questions about me as an author, whatever! Just throw them out there and I may answer them. If they are spoilerish, then it might be best for me to answer them on the discord. Still, if there is something you want to know, don't be too afraid to ask!


Once again, I just wanted to thank you all for supporting me. I hope you all are still enjoying the content I am creating, and will continue to do so.

How many books do you estimate bonded summoner series will get too? Same question for soul knight. For the foreseeable future are you expecting to alternate between those 2 serials?

Good question. The way I see it with bonded summoner, is that I have set things up where there are 7 tiers in total (0-6). We have 2/7 completed, and we are 5 books done! It's easy to see how the next few tiers could take many books. I don't see a way that Tier 2 is gonna be less than 4 books - heck, book 6 is likely to not have any progression in it, and is likely to just set up the arcs! I could easily see taking nearly 15 books to finish the series or more. It's hard to tell, especially with books getting longer and longer! For soul knight, I'm really going to be testing whether it's popular enough to make super long or not. If the series is a flop, I'll have no choice but to try turning it into a trilogy or so. But I could make it just as long as bonded summoner, no doubt! As far as scheduling, that is my current plan. Alternate between books. Going full time, I should actually be able to get a good schedule going where people get both series at a satisfactory rate, I think.

Do you have main plot points and conclusions brain stormed already? Or do those come to you as you go?
