Progress Is Slow, But Steady

So after much internal struggle to find the enthusiasm and motivation to take the next step with my career as a writer, I believe I have finally managed to get to a point of saying something.

My second book has been written for quite a while, but I have now managed to finish the first round of editing on the manuscript. This new development puts me within sight of being able to completely finish the book sometime in the very near future, and will hopefully lead to a release soon thereafter.

Being that this new book is a sequel to my first book, and the complete lack of interest that one drew when it was coming out, I’m not even going to bother with the pretense of seeking a traditional publishing contract for it. The book is commercial suicide, and the months it would take to amass the rejection letters could be better spent focused on what comes next.

Instead, when I reach the point of being ready to put this book out into the world, it will be self-published. While less glamorous, it feels like the right thing to do for this particular book.

Hopefully I will have more to say about the project soon.

Until then, back to normal.
