Update Link: A King’s Command – Part 25

Finally getting back here on a Sunday morning! There are three more parts, I think, after this, but I’m hoping to wrap it up next weekend. We’re probably going to have another Flash Fiction schedule change in April. The only reason I’ve been able to manage Friday night updates is because my district has us at home on remote half-days. Starting April 16, we’re back five full days a week. I’m not sure I’ll be up to Friday night updates at that point. I think we’ll be doing Saturday & Sunday morning updates for Flash Fiction, but we’ll see how it shakes out once I get back to work. It also depends on how the edit for Fool Me Twice goes. I’m hoping to have that first book entirely edited by that point.

I’m also working on an easier schedule for myself. Each book takes about six months, so I should probably be shooting for two books a year, not three. That’s probably where I went wrong last year. So I’ll be writing Smoke & Mirrors and then probably Mad World Book 4 for this year. We’ll see how it goes. It’s hard to measure anything by this year, you know? So many things are just not the way they normally would be. Schedules constantly changing, back to school, then remote, then on quarantine–the head space really isn’t there. So, I guess, in retrospect, the amount I was able to do isn’t that bad at all.

I played a lot with Smoke & Mirrors yesterday, so I’m really excited to start it it soon. It’s fun playing in an alternate universe and this is the first full-length AU novel I’ve attempted since Daughters back in 2006-2014.
