April 7th, 2025 Update!

Not much to report this week. I had some trouble sleeping, so I didn't quite get as much done overall as I would have liked, at least in terms of writing. I completed my taxes and sent out the art brief for the cover early in the week, although I'm still waiting to hear back from my artist. Tentatively, I expect to finish Rise of the Blood Moon Witch this week. If I do, I'll take next week off from the project altogether and focus on world-building for both Ashes and the third series I want to start. Namely, I should spend time on the map for the Ashes world. Either way, I intend to move Elite Ascent into my main project slot once I finish RotBMW's initial draft. I'll give my beta readers a week or two to dig in then I'll start editing it as my secondary project.

Project Statuses

Main Project - Rise of the Blood Moon Witch - 118,400 Words: I would have liked to get about another fifteen hundred words done for this, but I was just so tired during the times I write that I was having trouble pushing forward. It's still more than my average for the week, but I also didn't work on any other projects. Honestly, I wish I'd been able to do 12k plus. Right now, I'm right in the middle of the climax, so I have to finish the current scene and then handle the aftermath. That's it.

Side Project 1 - Elite Ascent - 7200 Words: No progress here. Every time I tried to work on it this week my brain just kept focusing on RotBMW. So for now, I'm going to push to get that finished and then switch to this.

Other Projects: Nothing here either. Just focusing on what I currently have.
