Further research for Jesse’s
Influence and Jesse’s Legacy is
off to a slower start than anticipated. I guess I felt in need of a break from
“work” after having expended so much energy completing both rough
drafts in such a short period of time. Plus, we’ve had so few nice days lately that
I felt the need to get outside and do stuff whenever they occurred instead of
sitting inside. I’m quite sure I’m still on track for publishing in spring.
While I may be behind with research/editing, I am ahead of schedule when it comes to working on Snapshot Existence. I’ve been using my breaks at my day job to work on that and I’m happy to say I’m just a few chapters away from finishing the rough draft. I imagine that will happen in another week or two. Therefore, don’t be surprised if a month or so after the two Jesse books are published, Snapshot Existence pops up as well. Since it will require far less research than my previous books, completing it should seem like a breeze to me. The same goes for Hornworm, which will be finished around the same time (more details later).
Once those are done I’ll be focusing on the dinosaur book inspired by my dreams that I tweeted about in October. I’m calling it This Dinosaur Future I Dreamed. Considering I began work on it back then I imagine it’ll be published before the end of the year.
Readers may be wondering about the four horror books centering on marine creatures I was supposedly working on. Worry not, they’re coming. I figured it would be best to get some more personal projects out of the way first. Since they all have similar themes (marine creatures go on a rampage) and all fall under the same scientific field, when researching one I’m researching them all. This should allow me to write them all simultaneously, with the goal of having the rough drafts nearly finished around the end of this year/early next year. It’s a gargantuan goal to meet, but one I feel capable of doing.
I know there’s a lot of talk of rough drafts, but my plan is to get a bunch of them done, then publish titles one after the other at astonishing speed.
