First thing’s first, the first Haven audiobook is out!
October was definitely a bad month. I was hoping to be most of the way done with Raw V at this point, but I am nowhere near that. I’m not completely sure what happened. Mostly it was a combination of: actual responsibilities popped up a little unexpectedly, including a special writing opportunity that I was presented with and decided to take a shot at (that I will talk about later), and also I spent most of this month just tired. Like really tired. I keep just sleeping but like not really? I don’t know, lately it just feels like I sleep, but when I wake up, my body says ‘no that didn’t count’ and I feel like shit the entire day. I’m trying to get it sorted out. And this is on top of my usual levels of depression and anxiety, so…
Yeah, basically I didn’t get much of anything done. Really the biggest thing I managed to do was redesign all my covers because I do like the new look, so…yay.
Anyway, I’m intending to make November more productive. Here’s a list of shit that’s happening.
The preorder for the audiobook for RAW III is coming out extremely soon.
The preorder for the audiobook for A WARM PLACE 1 will be out sometime this month.
I am having a really big sale/giveaway starting November 3rd that will run for five days. So November 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, & 7th. Basically all of the titles from my completed series will be free, and the Complete Collections will be under 1$.
I am intending to get through most of Raw V this month, and may theoretically post it before month’s end.
Here’s the more nebulous stuff.
The immediate plan remains the same: after finishing Raw V, I’ll write Monster Girl Inn III.
I have finally settled on my horror harem title. It was…D: none of the above. A new idea hit me and it’s just working so far. Not sure when it’ll be done but trust me, when it’s getting close I won’t STFU about it.
After Monster Girl Inn I still intend to go hard on Raw and just write it until it’s done.
There’s been a change of plans with regards to what I’ll do after Raw. Instead of my slice-of-life sci-fi series, I have instead opted to do a full rewrite of Our Own Way. I’ll release a post about that soonish explaining what and why.
After Our Own Way I’ll hit the sci-fi slice-of-life. It’s occurred to me that I really should stop alternating titles and just work on a series until it’s done. This will cause some problems for my sanity (namely burnout), but I’ll work on other projects quietly in the background to help with that. I think the most logical solution would be to write whatever the next series is going to be in the background while I work on my primary one, so that once the primary one is done, I’ll have a jump on the new primary series. At present, there’s just too much time passing between releases, and it’s clearly negatively impacting sales.
My backlog. It’s available on Smashwords and a few other sites. I imagine the overlap between people who have already read or don’t care about my backlog and the people who are reading this/visit my site are basically a circle. However, sometimes new readers find these posts, so I figured it’s still worth it to mention. I’ll be making a post about it and creating a page dedicated to it. I have also decided that since my titles are no longer on the Kindle, I’ll just offer them as free downloadable Kindle files directly from this site, in case you missed some.
I’ll also be putting together another bibliography. I know there exist some fans who want to see EVERYTHING, because I am one of those people. It will include all my works, including stuff I wrote not as Misty Vixen, or at least everything I can remember. Some stuff is lost to time thanks to bad memory and swapping computers. There were definitely a few experiments I have the vaguest recollections of writing, but have since been removed and deleted, and the specifics of which have been scrubbed from my brain.
Among the background stuff I’m working on, I’ll try to find time for either fan fiction or incest fiction. I actually added a bit more to my Dragon Age fan fiction (don’t know if anyone remembers that) and I almost brought it back out, but ultimately put it away because it started feeling like a waste of time. Ideas for and about incest fiction still pop to the surface occasionally, but I pretty much always think ‘I want to, but I really need to get to work on finishing up this current novel…’.
That’s about it. If you’ve got any questions, ask away. I’m going to finish up my secret project and then get to work on Raw V.
