Hello all. Happy spring to everyone, I do hope the pollen in your area is better than mine. It’s a sinus nightmare here.

Thank you for being patient. I feel I have a bit of explaining to do, so this update is going to be a bit longer usual. I understand that it’s not exactly groovy to ghost my readers.

BOOK 2 & OTHER WRITINGS

The biggest reason I’ve had nothing to say during these long months has to do with the sequel to Ahvram’s story, Void, book 2, the next installment, another fun term for a second book in a series. I had originally intended to have Void out by November/December of 2023, obviously as we sit well into spring and 1 day before April 2024, that hasn’t happened.

To make a complicated story simple, my editor ended up being in a situation where they consistently could not get to my manuscript but would promise to get to it next. They were supposed to begin towards the end of fall 2023, however as the start date approached I was told they were unable to start just yet, and the date would move. We went back and forth in conversation constantly, and in February, they admitted they didn’t have the capacity for my manuscript and handed it off to another editor. This new one has promised they are working on Void, and hopefully I have it in April/May.

I understand this is a disappointment to those wanting to read Void. Personally, it has been devastating for my creativity. Since fall I have been shying away from writing because I have been far too upset to continue Ahvram’s story. Part of me wants to simply publish Void as it is, but I want it to be polished and for my usual bad writing habits to be corrected before it’s released into the world.

Happily, I have found myself in a better place creatively recently, and I have returned to working on the series.

All that is to say, I am hoping to have Void out sooner versus later, and I will endeavor to keep updating here. Until then, thank you for sticking with me, and thank you to those who have reached out regarding my stories. You have no idea how much you mean to me.

Thank you~
