So, now that I have Promise to the Magic Heart posting, I am turning my creative endeavors to a few projects. The fun part in the last few weeks was that each project needed some reworking.

Irregulars – I had a huge portion of Book 4 written as it was originally going to be Book 3. Then, I realized that my concept for this arc of books, my original script isn’t going to work. I’ve also realized that my arc needed some serious rework and to get it where I wanted. So, this may go beyond the original five books I thought it was going to be.

Purgatory – One of the things that always concerns me is that I’m rewriting the same character in new settings. It was a concern that Ranger from Badmoon and Rin from Magic Heart were essentially the same person. Fortunately, I have a very good alpha reader who made some comments that helped me realize what I needed to do. And, it’s cascaded to this one. I needed to rework the character and setting a bit. Hence, I’ve been doing less writing on this one.

Untitled Isekai – Yeah, this one was heavily influenced by the anime I’ve been watching. I’m exploring the world and characters enough for the first story. I’m trying to figure out how “dark” I want to make this story as well as if I want to do an overall arc or just try to keep the stories more “stand alone.” I kind of like the idea of a character who isn’t playing for high stakes politics, but just kind of trying to make his part of the world better.

I don’t have any novels brewing in my head right now. I have some sketches for sequels to Badmoon and Magic Heart, but I’m not sure I want to spend writing time on those.
