Im still here.  My actual writing is as stagnant as ever, though I have come up with a smaller scale project Im hoping to use to shake out of it.

I'm on a tear recently.  Up to 55k - Admiral's Fall.  But its deader than a doornail in this part of the forum.  I really wish we could get some action going on in here again.

Keep after it Quantus.

My actual writing is on pause. I have a manuscript I'm looking to put up on Amazon soon and another soon after that. Soon I'll get to working on the third.
I'm not a hero. I'm not a savior. Forget what you know.

I'm just a man whose circumstances went beyond his control.

That's great o hear.  The more people who put some books up from the JB community the better as far as I'm concerned.

With that in mind what's everyone's genre?

I still stick my head in once in awhile. I finally got some killer art work for my novel The Forging and it is now on both Amazon and Kobo. I have been working everyday on the second novel in the series The Calling. And probably the most exciting news, I had to list royalties on my taxes. Professional author here now! Now I am just waiting for that rich and famous contract to come in.
Death that restful lullaby to mine enemies my hand is the melody and my sword the lyrics.

Royalties? Professional author?

*starts humming "Somewhere" from West Side Story.

That'd be a dream come true for me. Like many Dresdenites, I do urban fantasy.

That's great to hear Gravesbane!  Keep after it.

King Shisa with amazon literally publishing anyone just keep after it.  Finish a draft and then start looking around for editing and beta help.  You'll get there before you know it if you refuse to stop working it!
