Wow, two updates in the same month? I know, right? What's the world coming to?
Okay - first off? Survival, book one in the Sorrowfeld Academy series is available as of today on Amazon. I really like this story. There's something about Maddie that I like. Granted, I like all of my characters, but some resonate more with me at different times, and Maddie? She's hitting all the spots for me lately.
I have three other books in the series currently either written or planned. Two and three are done, with four about halfway done. I had anticipated this being a trilogy, but her story demanded one more when I realized she wasn't quite done.
I'm hoping you like her.
As for me, personally? Good old COVID came to visit and stayed a while. We're still in quarantine until this Saturday, but we should be good to go. The symptoms are almost entirely gone in those in the family that got it. Since I have six kids, you know it's been a fun time. Thankfully, no one had to be hospitalized. My wife and oldest daughter got it the worst, with the others being more like...hmm, not even bad cold symptoms. More like weird weak flu symptoms mixed with a cold mixed with allergies. The youngest was in and through so fast that it makes me question it, you know?
Either way, I can't say enough how happy I am that we're almost entirely through.
On the writing front? It's NaNoWriMo camp in April this month, and I'm doing it. I'm nowhere near my normal word count goals, so I'm sad about that, but I will hit my 50k in time. I'm writing book 4 in Sorrowfeld AND writing a book that one of my sons and I came up with. It's also following a girl in a school setting, but it's a YA urban fantasy type story, so it removes the cursing, nudity, and heavy violence. Then again, the main character was raised from infancy to be the best assassin in the world, so there's mayhem on the horizon.
On that note, I think it's time to sign off. I hope everyone has a wonderful day/night. Drop me an email if you'd like? I'd love to chat. Oh - and forgive any typos above. I'm not feeling the urge to edit, so any mistakes above are purely out of laziness and the need to hit the restroom :)
