One Novel in 30 Days

So, I tried going back to work back in November of last year. It didn't go well. This month I ended it and started looking for other ventures. I guess I wasn't ready to go back.

I wonder why. And why I'm hesitant about advertising the books I recently published. But, the work continues...

***

I finished a draft of Apotheosis back in October of last year, much faster than I had anticipated. In my mind, I needed a whole month to do it. But, after outlining it, the story (all 70,000 words of it) came out fast. Maybe because I have had it in my head for a long time? Who knows. 

As for the Wizards, they're well. I have a rough and first draft of The Wizards Collide (I technically still have the Epilogue to finish). Next week I start reading Apotheosis and The Sprite. How odd that they have to be published this year. It's taken me, what, years to do that to other books? There's still so much to do for them before I can let them go: Formatting; book cover art; platforms. In the meantime, I want to write a rough draft of The Sprite 2

I am still trying to decide how best to advertise. There are so many services out there that it's hard to decide. Maybe another book blog tour? Or several, one for each book? Those are time consuming though, so I guess we'll see. 

It's also time to leave this blog and have my own webpage, so I think I should start there. That means I will be moving in the future. It was inevitable, I guess. I mean, I still can't log into this page and am still going around the security to write these tidbits.

Oh, what does it matter? I have removed most of the material I had here, so it won't be such a loss. 

Yawn...

I need to read an Epilogue and then take a nap before Wandavision later on tonight.
