Hey everyone! I hope you all are having a wonderful week. As you can tell from the title, this week has been full of ups and downs. Honestly, it has been one of the most stressful weeks since I have started this journey. I will detail some of those below.
Weekly Update:
My initial plan was to release the updated cover for book 1 and book 2 this week. However, due to a delay on the typography for book 1 and book 2, which as of this moment is still being corrected, I was only able to release book 1’s new cover. The good news is that the delay of book 2 needed to happen. One of my beta readers helped identify some issues with book 2 that needed to be addressed. While rather small, they are critical to Tempest and his harem’s development. As such, I am waiting on him to finish with some formatting issues and letting me know of any issues in the final three chapters. The good news is based on his review, the book is good and I trust him not to b.s. me.
So where does that put us? I get the final typography corrections tonight, and I will have the manuscript with feedback today as well. I will spend the week going through it making adjustments and hopefully should be ready by, fingers crossed, next weekend. I’ll post an update midweek if anything changes.
Audiobook:
I have spent most of my time this past week listening to the audiobook and helping Rebecca Woods with feedback. The good news is we’re 99% done and should be sent off to audible sometime this week. I am so excited for you all to get your hands on it. As a book listener, this has been what I have been most excited for. I am sure her magnificent performance will please you. Attached here is a sample of the audio I have uploaded to YouTube. Please enjoy! https://youtu.be/4DF0MO6xLCk
The Aspect Book 3:
When I wrote the first chapter of book 3, it felt hollow. I could immediately tell what the problem was, it needed a different perspective and needed to go back a bit. After a rewrite, I think it’s in a much better spot. Once book 2 is released and the work on the audiobook is done, I can put all of my focus into book 3 to start turning out chapters. I am hopeful that once I am back in my groove, I can meet my self-imposed goals of releasing a new book every 4 months or so.
