Well, January didn’t go quite as I’d hoped. But at least some things were released.
Some audiobooks are here!
I know Beneath the Ashes audio came out in December but I’m sharing it again in case anyone missed it. The only other thing I have to say is that, unfortunately, due to some circumstances beyond our control, we had to release the Complete Collection of A Warm Place without recording Prelude or the two bonus shorts.
Other than that, I don’t have too much to talk about. January is traditionally my worst month, personally speaking, and although this month was more ‘low energy’ and less ‘I’m struggling to find a reason to continue being alive’, it resulted in me not getting as much done as I’d hoped.
I got about 2/3 of the way through Beneath the Ashes 2, and I also got a secret project written and sent off. I’m not sure when it will be released, as that’s out of my hands, but I’ll definitely let everyone know once I know.
I also spent some time workshopping how I wanted to approach my projects this year, and ultimately this is what I’ve settled on. I’ll be working on a cycle for at least the next six months. Beneath the Ashes 2, Goblin Girls 2, Our Own Way 4, and then Beneath the Ashes 3, Goblin Girls 3, and Our Own Way 5. Pretty much just one after the other. Alongside this, I’ll be getting slow but steady work done on my cougar harem trilogy. The end result of this is that by the time June rolls around, I’ll have at the very least wrapped up Beneath the Ashes and Goblin Girls Do It Better, and I’ll very likely have the first two cougar stories written.
I’m intending to release the first cougar story on June 1st, the second on July 1st, and the third and final one on August 1st.
Right now, the only thing that isn’t certain is Our Own Way. I know for a fact I want to do five of them, but as more time has passed and I’ve gotten a better grasp of both people’s reception to it and sales, it seems like it should be one of the longer series, and due to the nature of the story, theoretically it could go on for quite a while. It’s the kind of thing where I’ll basically just have to see how it feels once I’m actually there, but…like for real, there’s a LOOOOOOT that could happen in that story.
But that’s in the future. For the month of February, this is what should be happening:
OUR OWN WAY 3 Audio should come out.
BENEATH THE ASHES 2 should release.
GOBLIN GIRLS DO IT BETTER II might release near the end of the month, depending on how well I can keep it together.
SHELTER FROM THE STORM should be worked on. I definitely dropped the ball on this one given it’s been like almost 3 months with no updates. I am going to try and start setting aside some time each week to get at least one chapter out.
And that’s it. Onward we go.
