I went into my nanowrimo with a vague plan. I had some idea where Jeff’s story was going. Enough that I wasn’t too worried about connecting the dots while I wrote. Unfortunately, I’ve hit a point where the story could spin off in a few directions, and I’m not sure which path would be best. […]
Tomorrow, the Omnibus Edition is out. I have a few tweaks to make, but it’s done and ready, and tomorrow, I’ll have a hard copy book for sale. This also means that the first series is officially done tomorrow. No more tweaks, no more worrying. I can turn all my attention to revising and editing […]
