New Projects

I started a new little project tonight. It's something that's been rolling around in my head for a few days so I figured I'd get it out into real words and see where it goes. I got a few chuckles out of Anita in the first page and a half, so that's a good start I guess. I've been stewing on the Liberator Chronicles the past few months. I have a few beta readers that have provided feedback but I am still hoping to get a little more before I dive headfirst back into that project.

The series is now tentatively called "The Liberators Chronicles", with the first book tentatively titled "The Ember of Change". It's exciting to see the name of the book instead of just "Book1" staring at me in Google Docs, even if it does get changed later. I hope to be reaching out to some…
