The first book in the main Lupercalia series is almost done! I’m at 67k words, and one chapter left!

Between editing for clients and working to get this book done, I haven’t really thought to update things here. But I am working on it, I promise. Among the things to do are adding the newsletter sign up, and organizing what materials I can show to readers (character art, maps, etc), as well as world building materials for myself and my writing partner.

In any case, I just need to do that final chapter, then skim through again for anything I’ve missed before I send it to my beta reader. I write in a circular style*, so the bulk of the story has already been through a couple drafts, so it won’t be too much longer now. I just need to make sure the fall out from certain events is handled properly. While my beta reader looks it over, I’ll work on the basic outline for book 2.

Next on the docket: What the hell do I name this thing? I look through the top 100 songs of the year where this takes place didn’t really help. I’ll have to think on it a bit more.

*Circular writing goes by a couple names. Basically, you just keep writing until you can’t progress any more, then you circle back to revise what you already have and then keep going again until you get stuck. It works for me.
