March Update (Patreon)
Content
Hey guys! It's that time again! Time for your author update. First, some stats:
February Words Written: 70k (55k SKB1, 187k total + 7.7k SKB2, +8.1k BSB6)
Soul Knight Book 1 is more or less ready for publishing on Amazon, as soon as I finish stubbing the book and everything on RoyalRoad. Thank you fall for your support and feedback!
I wanted to get a little more done in Feb (since I took 3 weeks off work), but I'm overall happy with what I got done (I did a lot of preparations in my own home for my eventual move as well, so it's not as though I got to just write only). I'm still planning on quitting my job end of March, and my hopes are that I can do 70 or 80k like clockwork--this will allow me to finish a book, even a longer one, in about 2 months.
My current goal for BSB6 and SKB2 are kind of the same. I want to aim for ~100k words for the events contained within the books, and try to cut off the book release there so that I have a steady stream of events and plot moving forward. For those reading here on Patreon, this hardly matters, but it should be something that 'appeases the beast' when it comes to Amazon. Amazon likes constant releases.
Soul Knight Audio is already set to record near the end of March, and Alyssa Poon and Evan Jordan are the choices for narrators this time. I'm hoping to have a release mid-april for audio on Soul Knight for the Audio, with a 3/12 release or so for Ebook. Like Anne for Bonded Summoner, since I write in third person, the one doing the narration will be Alyssa.
Book 5 Audio is in recording right now by Anne and Jack, and I think it should be released early to mid april based on what I've been told about progress. I was shocked to see how many people enjoyed the audio version in general (maybe not among patreons, but nevertheless), and I'm hoping folks like Book 5 just as much as the first four.
We've got a lot of new patrons in this last month, and I wanna thank you all -- new and old patrons of mine, that are supporting me. It does mean a lot ,and I hope you guys continue to enjoy the content I make. For now, I am going to be focused on BS6 an SK2 only for the next few months, so whether you're only fans of one or the other, you should get what you want!
