Books Progress Update 6th July 2021

Hi Everyone,


Phew been a while since I made one of these. Really need to get better at that. Not that much to say here. Had some personal stuff interfering with book production for a while, but I've been working on it pretty consistently for about the last 8 months or so?


So, what's going on?


Firstly, The Alchemist Series.


I've finished the first draft. Probably a while ago. Did some revision for about 50%-75% of the book (almost twice the size of book 1). But, I wasn't happy enough with it to call it a second draft and so I'm only calling what I'm doing now the second draft. So, if you're wondering why it seems like no progress has been made... it actually has.


I think it's coming along alright. Slower than I'd like. Much slower. Believe me, I want nothing more than to release tons of books as fast as possible. But, I hate the idea of sacrificing quality. So... yeah. It's taking a while. But, I haven't given up on it. Far from it.


Thank you for being so incredibly patient. And, I apologize for not being more active here with updates. It's not something I'm good at but I do need to work on it.


Secondly, I have another series in progress. First draft of it is complete. I think it's pretty cool. Not ready for release (obviously), but I find it a lot of fun to work on. Don't want to say anything about it just yet. It's also pretty big. Much bigger than the first Alchemist Series book.


TLDR: It's coming along. Books are big. Taking ages. Doing my best. Thanks for being awesome and have a great day.
