This week, I finished writing Of Blood and Snow which is currently being posted as a free serial on one of my websites. It was 31 chapters in the end and 98000 words. I’ve only reached chapter 22 in my posting of this story. It’s great to have it finished. I need to edit these final chapters now to get them ready for posting and then I need to decide what to do with the story. I’ve never promised that it would always remain a free story, and I think it’s a story that is very sellable and people would buy it. It’s always a tough decision to make, especially because I’ve enjoyed posting it and getting feedback from readers about it.
This week, I also finished editing the second story in my Sons of Lyra mini-series. Oddly, it ended up being precisely the same length as the first story, Sons of Lyra: Slave Princess, which is available from Fictionwise at a discount of 15% right now – http://www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/eBook67530.htm
I still need to finish writing the 3rd and 4th stories in the series. I’m also toying with writing a Daughters of Lyra series for this generation of sons children. I’ll see how popular these ones get before I make a decision. It will basically be set 20-25 years on from this series. I’m seriously considering it though.
Off to update my website. I’ve got some programming bits and bobs that I want to do to it… fancy stuff.
