Talking to an Empy Room

 So I figure with having a website for my books now it might be a good idea to start being a little more public with what is going on. Likly just doing this monthly and talking to an empty room at the moment but got to start somewhere.

Book III - The Iron Oath is slowly chugging along. Chapter 33 first draft was completed the other day. Real life is slowing down progress but it's still moving forward. Still looking to be over 50 chapters making it the longest book to date.

Books I & II will be coming off of Kindle Unlimited so I can increase where their ebook formats are available with them likely being put out in Barns & Noble, Kobo, Everand, Apple Books and more. This is a work in progress and my website will host links to all places and formats available.

On another note I'm switching up system I'm using to write and will likely be using campfire.com as my primary drafting and editing system, finally moving beyond simply using word.

The Start of Something New

Something new is rising. After years spent walking the stone halls of Rynthavael, tracing ley lines beneath the Ironspire Mountains, and watching Xavier’s journey unfold page by page, it is time to open the doors a little wider.

Here you will find deep dives into the making of the Arath Saga, worldbuilding lore that never quite fit between chapters, character spotlights, early looks at upcoming arcs, and the quiet thoughts that shape a ten book epic long before ink ever touches the page. If you have ever wondered how a Grand Nexus is designed, how divine politics are mapped across epochs, or what it really takes to build a settlement like Rynthavael from the ground up, you are in the right place. The saga continues on the page. Now you can step into the workshop where it is made.

Changes on the horizon

 Well things are changing and for the better I believe. The first major change is dealing with the already released books. The first two books came out with AI generated cover images. Which is something I wanted to replace as soon as I could. This is being replaced in the near future. The covers will be simpler in some ways but will have human art as it should be. This leads into the second change. I will be pulling the books off of Kindle Select which will enable me to provide the ebooks through more than just Amazon. As I am doing this it gives me a chance to do some minor formatting edits to provide continuity through the series as I have found the look I really like and want it the same across the books now. Thank you to those who bought the first editions but there will be a new revision coming everywhere. (Kindle, Barns & Noble, Apple Books, Kobo, Ingramspark, etc.) This will also include the ability to buy paperbacks on other sites as well! The Iron Oath (Book III) is st...
