Hello all my friends, fans and supporters. This will officially be my first of recurring monthly newsletters. I will start keeping you up to date on my writing and author life, more in depth here than on social media. I plan to have giveaways and more coming up.
First thing, thank you all for supporting me in my journey so far. I have now been published for a year! Crazy, right? Time flies when you’re having fun.
For the month of July, I wanted to give some updates of where I am in terms of writing, plans that have come up, and what I’ve been doing in general.
That’s right! I have my next series in mind, and of course I had to create a cover. That’s just me. But, I am beginning to lay the groundwork for Chronicles of Nyte, Book 1. The working title right now is Ascension of Stones.
This will be very different from my Gnariam’s Fate Saga. This series will be set on modern day Earth. It will be genre-split between Superheroes, Sci-Fi and Fantasy with a hefty batch of action and mystery. I think the characters are going to be very relatable and likable. It will explore much of the real world.
I plan to have this as a 6-part series, with AoS debuting next year.
Gnariam’s Fate Saga
I’ve been getting asked a lot about Gnariam’s Fate Saga Book 3, The Tempest Fate. I promise you, it is coming. Things have slowed down for me a bit in terms of writing but, I am over halfway finished with the rough draft.
What’s to expect with book 3?
Without giving away spoilers for The Lightning Rod or The Thunder King (in case you haven’t read them), I can tell you a few things certainly.
The Tempest Fate is going to be much more emotionally driven than the first two. The stakes have been raised tenfold. There will be new characters introduced and some of the side characters are going to be explored much more in depth.
How long will book 3 be?
The length of the book will be about 25% longer than The Thunder King. The Tempest Fate will explore much more of Gnariam, beyond Sythestine as well. I plan for each book to grow in length in the series.
Merchandise
Yes, you read that right! I have some plans to start crafting and selling merchandise based on the Gnariam’s Fate Saga. So far, I’m looking into t-shirts and bookmarks.
I want to really build a brand around the Saga.
If you have any ideas of merchandise that you would like to see, let me know in the comments!
