Steve’s Update 1/19/2019

Hello everyone! Well the holiday may be over, but I’m plugging away as always!

So what have I done the last week(s)?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Is selling in ebook format and I have what I HOPE is the final print copy. We’ll know more after looking it over this weekend. At this rate I’m thinking any remaining typos be damned.
  • A Reader’s Guide To Avenoth: I haven’t started promoting it yet, but if you like A Bridge To The Quiet Planet, check out this free world guide! I’ll promote it more when the print copy drops.
  • Way With Worlds: The book on Cities is marching along. Not much to post on that except, well, it’s happening.
  • Expanding My Publishing: I’ve got my books going out to more distributors, starting with the worldbuilding books. They’re at Kobo, Nook, and I’m also over at Itch.io.
  • Other: I think I covered everything above!

What’s next?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Hopefully signing off on the print copy.
  • Way With Worlds: Writing away. Maybe I need to reduce these updates, as I’m gonna say that a lot.
  • Expanding My Publishing: I’ll have a few more books out, so keep looking at Kobo, Nook, and more!
  • Other: I didn’t get to my new coding experiments, so I hope to this week.

Hello everyone! Well the holiday may be over, but I’m plugging away as always!

So what have I done the last week(s)?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Is selling in ebook format while I go through the physical copy.
  • Way With Worlds: I’ve started writing the next book – on Cities! That’ll probably be out in March! Also I’ve started expanding the book distributions, so expect more updates later.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Not much here, the week got busy.
  • Other: I started formatting the worldbook for “A Bridge To The Quiet Planet” to get ready for free distribution in a few weeks! I think you’ll love it!

What’s next?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: I plan to finish the final print review this week, and a likely update to the ebook files. Then it’s one more print copy and hopefully we’re good!
  • Way With Worlds: Still writing and expanding the book distribution. Once that’s done I’ll post an update (though it’s probably two or thee weeks away as some distribution methods take time)
  • Seventh Sanctum: Mostly trying to start my new code plans. I may not have many updates on that part for awhile, but then again its part of a larger effort to try some new stuff. I don’t expect the new codebase to be out for a year.

Steve’s Update 1/5/2019

Hello everyone! Well the holiday may be over, but I’m plugging away as always!

So what have I done the last week(s)?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Is selling in ebook format and has been repeatedly updated as I edit the print copy. I was disappointed with the typos I saw (I at least figured why), but the print copy is looking great!
  • Way With Worlds: I’ve got a lot of notes on the next book. More on that in a bit!
  • Seventh Sanctum: Nothing new quite yet, taking a break after the updates, but I do have a few plans in mind. I’ve also begun my plans to update the code base over the next year.
  • Other: Mostly a lot of chores and side things.

What’s next?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: A break for a few days as the print book’s next proof copy comes to me. If all goes well I’ll do a big haul and be done. I also hope to work on a special free book – a world guide!
  • Way With Worlds: I’ll take my notes and compile them into an outline, then probably start the book in February.
  • Seventh Sanctum: I’ve got two or three generator ideas, let’s see if anything comes of it!
  • Book Access: I’m trying a few things to improve book distribution, stay tuned!
